Is it true that if you suck in you tummy it helps flatten and get rid of fat quicker?

Reply from julia, Age 16 - 07/07/05 - IP#: 4.154.127.xxx the correct term is not sucking in, that would mean like squeazing all the air out of diaphragm, and that does nothing....but if you tighten ur abdomen and hold like that throught the day, then THAT strenghthens ur abs, thats what the do in ballet. It improves ur posture and gives u a stronger core, but u've really gotta hold it for a long period of time, you'll feel it!

Reply from Michelle <3 - 07/07/05 - IP#: 206.148.117.xxx No! Are you kidding? That sounds like complete bs. lol I'm sorry but you can't lose weight by sucking in your stomach. If you do ab exercises that will help and maybe by sucking in you mean exercising it. I don't know, but if you want flatter abs, crunches are the best.
Reply from Orcy, Age 14 - 07/07/05 - IP#: 68.0.210.xxx yes, if you suck it in, hold it for as long as you can and repeat. you can do it wghile your in class, studyibng, driving, in the shower. or whatever. i havent personaly tried it, but i heard it helps
