Loose skin or extra skin

if the loose skin is a result of drastic weight loss from being severely overweight, then you might have to have it surgically removed, Depending on how stretched your skin was, however im sure that you do not want to go through that extreme. If i were you i would focus on adding more muscle onto your abs and obliques, and lower back the extra mass will fill a good portion of the space from the extra skin, then you might be able to diet the rest away assuming that it's fat.

knee highs (with weights)
weighted situp's

hope this helps a little

Doing all the abb workouts in the world wont help if you have too much Body fat. I would suggest changing your diet and upping the cardio. Your lower abbs are probably there you just cant see them because of the fat.

Also make sure you abb routein envolves the lower abbs.
