You just need to do cardio to lower the fat all over your body. All crunches will do is tighten your stomach muscles, which is a good thing (more muscle, the more fat you burn) but it will not be seen since there is a layer of fat on top of it. So, in short, no. For more info. on spot reducing, check out this site. It explains it fairly well. http://www.allsands.com/HowTo/spotreducing_zue_gn.htm
