Well for one, ab workouts are a good start to tone your midsection. Workouts like crunches, sit-ups, leg lifts, etc. But contrary to popular belief, these workouts won't make your abs show if you have fat on your midsection. You have to have a fairly strict diet to lose weight. Then your abs will begin to show. Find out how many calories a day you need to mantain your weight. If you have some fat around your midsection then subract 500 calories a day from your maintenance level. Coupled with cardio and the workouts above you will have a toned midsection in no time!

Another good exercise to tone your abs is crunches. However, you should also include other types of exercises such as walking or jogging.

The simplest thing you can do is to incorporate activity into you everyday life. Park your car at the far end of the parking lot and walk to the store, climb the stairs instead of using an elevator or escalator, walk or ride a bike to your job.
