Reducing the amount of oblique specific exercises will help and when you do perform them don’t include any extra resistance such as dumbbells, weight plates etc.

Also work on building your shoulders up a little more. I’m NOT talking about bulking up like a rugby player.

Example: you can have two sessions a week (at least 4 days apart) where you’re training your shoulders. One day using more mass building exercises using heavier weights and lower reps and the other day using exercises that work on defining your shoulders – using a much lighter resistance with more reps.

I’m not sure what exercises you’re currently performing for your legs but you might want to consider reducing the resistance (if you’re using dumbbells etc) and performing higher reps. Don’t forget to mix things up a bit too. If you want change you need to make sure you upgrade your workouts regularly – otherwise you’ll plateau. For example: if you’re doing nothing but squats, leg press and stationery lunges all the time then get cracking with some new exercises. There’s nothing wrong with these exercises, but you definitely have to include variety to stimulate new results.

Obviously your eating is going to make a HUGE difference to your overall regime as well. You’ll be surprised at exactly where you might be going wrong with your eating plan just by logging what you eat each day.

If you get bored easily with your eating then you might want to consider something like Cheat Your Way Thin (it sounds strange, but it’s great if you get sick of eating the same stuff day in and day out).

You might also find that by changing your eating plan (helping you reduce your body fat) that your midsection and areas like your legs where you want it to be more defined will start to improve.

Carrying out a workout similar to the above will not only help reduce body fat but will also increase your fitness – and you can do it with limited gym equipment. By reducing your overall body fat you’re abs will become more noticeable.
