I recommend running up that hill and back and even farther if necessary. For abs, I suggest doing 50 crunches, 50 leg lifts, 50 flutter kicks, 50 oblique crunches on each side, and 50 bicycle exercises 3 to 4 times a week. and eat healthy because a healthy diet is just as important as working out.

Firstly, you will need to exercise. And a feeble 30 or 40 minutes of cardio in your so-called “fat-burning zone” two or three times a week isn’t going to be enough. As you’ve learned, a full-body training program that includes both cardiovascular and resistance exercise will deliver better, faster results.
Forget about doing hundreds of crunches, sit-ups, or any of the various “drawing in the belly button” exercises. They’re virtually useless for most people when it comes to losing belly fat.
As Mike Geary, author of The Truth about Six Pack Abs, points out: “Let’s get this straight right now. Abdominal exercises do NOT burn fat away from your abs! This can only be accomplished through a much more effective full-body training routine that maximizes both your metabolic response and your hormonal response to your workouts.”
Remember, belly fat is stored energy. To get rid of it, you need to burn more energy (calories) than you eat. And these exercises don’t burn enough calories to make much of a difference to the appearance of your waist and stomach.
“The truth is, getting six-pack ‘killer’ abs has almost nothing to do with training,” adds Tom Venuto, author of Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle. “It has everything to do with low body fat.”
If you’ve seen pictures of Tom, you’ll know he has some of the best abs in the business. “Some people might argue that I was just blessed with good genetics in the ab department, which may be true,” says Tom. “But based on my experience with others who have less favorable genetics, I still believe that developing the abdominal muscles is easy. The hardest part is getting your body fat low enough for your abs to show.”
You’ll also need to eat the right foods. I know it’s a cliché, but a flat stomach is made in the kitchen and not the gym. Deciding what to eat can be difficult, especially with the mass of conflicting and confusing information out there. When it comes to nutrition, most people have been given only half the story. Usually, it’s the wrong half!
Ultimately, while there are a few basic principles to keep in mind when it comes to nutrition and weight loss, losing belly fat requires that you take in fewer calories than you burn. Don’t be seduced into following an overly complicated diet masquerading under the guise of a “new and revolutionary” approach to weight loss.
Finally, you’ll need to be consistent. To lose belly fat, eating right and exercising regularly needs to become a habit, not just something you do when you can be bothered or when you “have the time.” If your current schedule makes it difficult to find the time for exercise, change it. Get out of bed earlier. Turn off the TV. Stop wasting time on Facebook.
If you’re looking for a highly effective fat-burning exercise routine that will help you burn off belly fat and lose the love handles, the Fight Fat and Win program (FFW) is the one I use myself and recommend to others. Based on some of the latest nutrition and exercise research, FFW is designed to help you quickly burn belly fat while preserving valuable muscle tissue.

I was in a similar postion in February. I had too much stomach, a big couch potato ass and some love handles! I am male and 23 years old, and I wanted to get back into the same shape I was in when I was 21.
I lost over a stone in just over a month. I did by improving my diet and increasing the amount of exercise I did. I improved my diet and reduced fat in it initially, and that saw me lose a few pounds, but I really started seeing results when I started exercising more.
Basically I cut out chocolate and crisps out of my diet, (and ice cream) and only ate this things in moderation on a weekend. If I made it through the week without breaking my diet, I’d reward myself by eating some of the bad stuff on the weekend.
As far as exercise goes, it’s good you have dumbbells, and that will help build muscle, which helps improve your metabolism and helps you reduce body fat. However, doing muscle building workouts with weights will not help you get rid of body fat very fast. I would suggest you do more cardio vascular training, which is things like running/cycling etc. Fast exercise that leaves you out of breath. For a lot of people (me included) this helps burn fat very quickly.
Try looking at what bad stuff you eat during the week and cut down on it, and try doing 45 minutes of cardiovascular exercise 2 or 3 times a week. You could go jogging for 4/5 miles, or a 10 mile bike ride (I did the bike ride). Do that two or three times a week with an improved diet and you should see results. Your weight training will also help too, and make sure you don’t eat too late at night!
You asked about ab routines. There is a guy on Youtube, who gives away free advice on body building. He talks about how to workout really cheaply at home without having to buy expensive equipment or supplements. His name is Scooby and here is a link to his abs and losing weight videos. I highly recommend them, as they are well worth a look!

I hope some of that helps, and all the best with it!
