When we asked GL readers to spill their favorite gut-busters, the response was overwhelming. You girls love to torch those tummies—here are your best-ever moves for getting a six-pack in no time flat.

 

 

Perfect Pikes

“Lie face-up with raised legs until perpendicular to floor, feet flexed and hands lightly behind head. Lower right leg so it hovers one or two inches off floor. In this position, do 15 crunches, lifting chest toward ceiling and lowering back to start. Switch legs and repeat.” – Taira N., 13

 

Get Pumped!

“I listen to one of my favorite upbeat songs while I lay on the ground and do about 10 crunches. After about 10, I switch to side crunches. It makes me feel good about myself, and, knowing that, I do more!” – Taylor N., 14

 

Roll With It

“My favorite is so much fun, you won’t even realize it’s an ab workout. Sit with your knees up and your arms around them. Next you gently fall back, the roll yourself back up! Do about 20 a day.” – Kaitlyn G., 15

 

Do the Hula

“My BFF and I discovered Super Hula Hoop for our Wii Fit. One night, we decided to have a competition with a couple friends. All the girls said it was really fun—and they totally got a workout. It’s a blast to play with friends, family or just beat your own score.” – Emily P., 14

MOD MOD MOD there is this girl that i know and we are not exactly friends but we've talked before.and she always smiles and says hi back when i greet her.but my problem is i dont just want to say hi to her i want to get to no her more and maybe even become best friends.but i dont know how to become her bestfriend or even talk to her.help please




 

Hey Girl-

That's great you've found someone you want to have as a new friend! Try starting a casual conversation with her by asking about her day or complimenting her on a piece of clothing. Don't focus on turning her into your BFF though-- you barely know her and that might scare her away. 




best of luck!

Hi I have two 5 month old kittens is there anyway I can exercise with them?

 

Hey girl!

Try dangling a stuffed animal mouse or some sort of toy that you KNOW they'll want to chase after. Once you find that object, run around your house with it, hopping, jumping, and running upstairs so that you and your sweet kittens get some good exercise!

I really need to exersise more but the problem is that I cant do push ups or sit ups and I dont have time to run and I dont want anybody to see me working out i want it to be a suprise but I need help with some good exersises that nobody will notice im doing

 

Hey cutie!

There are tons of great exercises you can do at home where nobody will be watching you...stairs, jump rope, workout videos (OnDemand, DirecTV, Verizon Fios have tons of great ones), even YouTube workout videos have great, simple exercises you can do at home. Also check out our workout tips in our Health & Fitness section!
