Sit ups? almost daily and a little cardio would help as well. Train hard and it will pay off

Unless you are really chubby, I guarantee your peers don't really care what you look like with a shirt off and your making a bigger deal of it than they are. The biggest problem with kids your age that are overweight or have some flab are that they either eat alot of junk or are pretty inactive. The best thing you can do is to get more active either go running, play some sports, or just plain get off your butt. Instead of playing video games, go biking or something. Find something fun and get your friends into it. Inactivity used to be my problem when I was younger, especially in the winter when I just sat around playing video games but when summer came I would lose alot when the courts thawed out. As far as abs go your not going to get great definition at your age and no one expects you to. Just eat healthier and be more active, your young metabolism should take of the rest.

man don't worry about it... if you want to know the secret for looking good at your age is...
don't play video games all day/ watch TV.. don't eat junk food... and go outside and get involved in some after school activates... I picked martial arts when I was 10 so that was my big sport..

OMG :eek: .... I sound like my parents... they were right.. this is a strange enlightenment for me... I'm going to need a minute .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .............. ok, it's gone... wait....... yeah it's gone

Yeah, do all those things, and stay the hell away from soft drinks. I used to guzzle coke and pepsi like a fiend. After I stopped drinking it all together, I started losing weight just because of that. If you want to drink soda, pick a diet one.

cut out all soda's, candy, chips, etc. just avoid junk food and the fat will probably come off relatively easily. like the other guys said, its most likely not as noticable to anyone else as it is to you. don't worry about it, just enjoy bein' a kid while you can

if i were u, i would try to take in as much about nutrition as i can now and get into a cycle of eating healthy this was my mistake i had no concept of what the word calorie, of course i knew it was a word but i didnt know how many i should be gettin a day things like that. Learn to eat healthy now and you wont have problems later on down the road

I'd say to join a few different sports teams. Soccer, basketball, ect. Being active at your age is the best advice I can think of.
