Or are isometrics different and I can indeed work till I drop? Also, I know conventional training wisdom says otherwise, but as you're not mainstream, I thought I'd give it a go: are there any ways you to gain fat in certain areas (ie buttocks, hips, face) while not gaining in others (waist)?

I'm looking to flatten my stomach and add tone. Will this workout alone achieve this, or will I require to continue with other workouts as well?
If so, what workouts would do this?
Thanks.

What benefit is there to doing the sie plank as I simply want to focus on getting a toned stomach? Will this make my stomach look odd as the middle would be developed whereas the sides (obliques) would be undeveloped?

Thanks for this great website and all the useful info. But I wanted some help with the plank exercise. I maintain a straight line from my feet to my head and can hold this position for 1 minute easily. The problem is that being in that position tends to cut off the circulation to my forearms and hands. This is very uncomfortable. Also, my legs actually got more sore than my abs from doing this exercise. So can you give my any advice? Hey! Thanks for this great website and all the useful info.
