An excellent exercise to lose belly flab, along with your fat burning exercises, is the plank. There are a number of variations you can do to increase the level of difficulty.
Both your abs and your obliques are worked on in all the plank exercises below. If you’re just starting out with the plank, hold for 15 – 30 seconds. Rest for one minute then repeat another two times. Increase the holding time to 45 – 60 seconds, then eventually to 90 seconds.
When you can easily hold three times for 90 seconds, then move up to the next level plank exercise.
First is the elbow plank, as demonstrated in the video below:

To increase the difficulty you can do the same exercise using a Bosu. This will also help with balance and stability.

To further increase the difficulty level, the following exercise requires you to place your feet on a Bosu.

As with all abs exercises, alone they will not help you to lose belly flab. You still need to do fat burning exercises, such as interval training and high intensity weight training.
These plank exercises however, will nicely tone up your abs and obliques so when you do lose belly flab they will give you that lovely defined, taut look.
