It is vitally important that your exercise routine include all of your muscle groups. In order to lose any of your inches you need to do a full workout.

That said; why can't you spend some extra time on your stomach area to get the results you were hoping for? Here are a couple of exercises that you can do during your "down" time:

Pelvic Tilts

Not only are pelvic tilts fantastic for your stomach muscles, but they help with your lower back muscles, sacroiliac joint and the areas that surround them. Here is how you do pelvic tilts:

Start by lying down on the floor on your back. Your knees should be bent and pointing toward the ceiling. Flatten your back against your floor and, while you bend your pelvis slightly upwards, tighten the muscles in your abdomen. Hold this pose for between eight and ten seconds and then relax. Start by doing five pelvic tilts in a row. The goal is to build your muscles up so that you can do between ten and twenty pelvic tilts in a row without getting burned out.

Pelvic Lifts

A slight variation on the pelvic tilt is called the pelvic lift. Here is how you do pelvic lifts: start in the same position as you did for the pelvic tilt but let your arms relax at your sides and pull your knees up toward your chest. Slowly lift your backside up off of the floor while tensing or tightening your lower abdomen area. Lift your backside until your knees are pointing toward the roof. Hold this pose for at least eight to ten seconds and repeat the exercise five times minimum. Like the pelvic tilts, you want to build up your muscles so that you can do ten to twenty pelvic lifts without burning out.

Another type of pelvic lift can be done like this: Get down on all fours and let your stomach hang naturally. Take a long, slow and deep breath and then blow that breath back out. Once you've exhaled all of your air, pull your navel up and in toward your backbone until your waist area feels slightly tight. Hold this position while you breathe normally and count to ten and then let your stomach relax over a second ten count. It is important that you don't let your back move during either count of ten. Repeat this exercise between ten and twelve times.
