A member asked:
On my workout dvd's they say tighten your abs. when i do this should i see my abs visibly change or is it something i only feel when doing an exercise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercise: You won't see your abs change until you exercise consistently for a significant period of time. Also your diet is a major factor in how your stomach looks as a high fat/sugar diet will story fat in your stomach. Best wishes.
