I'm 56 and fairly active. ve just started power-walking and I feel pretty good, but what specific ab-exercises are there for a sagging belly?; I get a little pain in mid section that subsides with ab-crunches...a sign of weak abs or GI inflammation?

Answer: Best Exercise for Stomach "Sag"? Good for you in that you have made healthy steps to improve your lifestyle! There are no specific abdominal wall exercises that will target “sagging belly". Ultimately, best to achieve your long-term stable weight through your current healthy lifestyle. Then, if you still have concerns about the appearance of your abdominal wall, seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience helping patients in your situation. Depending on your physical examination and goals, tummy tuck surgery may be an option. I hope this, and the attached link, helps.

Answer: Excess and sagging skin can be removed only by a Tummy Tuck Sadly, when you have excess abdominal skin, Surgery in the form of a Tummy Tuck operation is the only solution. Exercises tone the 6 pack muscle and dieting can help reduce the fat. But neither of these fix the loose skin. I have sucessfully operated on a few patients with a visible 6 pack abdominal muscles + very low body fat but were unable to get rid of the excess skin. You should see a Plastic Surgeon who can advise you appropriately.
