I was wondering what excersises are paticularly suitable for the stomach? (Do abs excersises have any effect on the stomach?).

I'm not sure I understand the question.......

When most people say they want a flat stomach they mean a flat abdomen. If this is what you mean then yes abs exercises will help strengthen that area, but to make it flat/ reveal a six pack, you need to reduce bodyfat by dieting.

If you mean will abs exercises help the organ used for digestion (the true meaning of stomach) then I'm not so sure.

I am not trying to be smart or deliberately obtuse, I just want to make sure I know what it is you are asking :)

With proper diet, average exercise and cardio what is a reasonable time to see results in the midsection?
