Ab Wheel is the sheit. One other is crunches on a excercise ball with your feet under something unmovable. And as the other say, burn the fat.

Generally when it comes to nutrition I recommend Lyle McDonald and when it comes to weight lifting for strength I recommend Rippetoe's Starting Strength (but don't take his nutritional advice!). Then there's the cardio. Either go slow or go Tabata, take your pick, as long as you actually do it.

So do those "burn fat" supplements actually do anything?
And how do they work?
I see them advertised everywhere.

At one point when my stomach was just... "a mess", I used Acai Berry pills and Benefiber to slim down, it really worked well with high cardio activities at the gym. Acai really burned my fat and the Benefiber help me to get rid of excess waste that was stored up in me from eating all of the wrong things (Burger King, McD's, etc.) Acai helps with this too.

What about that stuff they advertise in mens magazines?
They been at it for years, surely they have some effect.
I have never used any product of that type, dont go to gym, occasional sport just low sugar intake and no junk food.
So I am just wondering if taking some pills can improve my body appearance without harmful side effects.

They work for sure, but you have to be careful with any weight loss pill becuase taking them incorrectly will always have a harmful side effect. Any of those pills can be potentially harmful because of their nature. The best thing is to look up reviews for the particular products... That's how I found Acai... it works whether you workout or not, and its available as a fruit, juice, gummy, pills...
