Do core exercises flatten your stomach?

Remember: Your eating habits have a stronger effect on your "six pack" then abdominal exercises alone, as the "flatness" comes from have limited superficial body fat. So while exercises can help some element of tone, weight control has more of an effect.

Yes: If you do them right and you are not fat. Setups both straight and obliques help a lot. Enjoy your six pack.
