Abdominal exercises are fine for toning and firming up abdominal muscles but do not melt fat tissue in the waistline.
Doing abdominal exercises in the attempt to reduce fat tissue in that area of the body is one of the most common myths I encounter.
Abdominal exercises only strengthen and tighten the abdominal muscles, they have absolutely nothing to do with the reduction of body fat tissue.

Abdominal exercises along with a lower back/trunk stabilization strengthening program is very helpful to a strong mid-section.

Advanced abdominal exercises can be executed with bilateral straight leg lifts while supported in an elevated chair or supine.

Performing abdominal exercises early in the workout may jeopardize your ability to stabilize your body in other exercises, and may sacrifice the productivity of the other exercises in your program.
Abdominal exercises to build core strength may be part of a separate strength training session or may be effectively accomplished without untoward injury risk just prior to or just after swimming.
Remember abdominal exercises must be incorporated with a precision diet and program to attain the washboard effect.

Performing abdominal exercises for the abdominal muscles is no different than doing biceps curls for the biceps muscles.
Exercises for abdominal would be spinal flexion or crunches.
Abdominal exercises alone will never create a firm six pack stomach, no matter how many exercises you try or reps you complete.
