Ah...yes, you only need to start focusing heavily on training abs. You simply are lacking considerable ab muscle to hold up the skin and tighten things up.
Do abs 3x a week in addition to your regular workout routine.
Example
Monday - workout as usual + ABS - Abs include: 30 minutes of HEAVY WEIGHT ab training (do all weighted ab exercises) do a total of 20 sets, 5-8 reps per set, and hold the last rep as long as possible before releasing it slowly.
Tuesday - workout as usual
Wednesday - workout as usual + ABS - Abs include: 30 minutes of INTENSE (but MODERATE WEIGHT) ab training (do some weighted exercises and some bodyweight exercises) do a total of 20 sets, each set UNTIL FAILURE.
Thursday - workout as usual
Friday - workout as usual + ABS - Abs include: 30 minutes of HEAVY WEIGHT ab training (do all weighted ab exercises) do a total of 20 sets, 5-8 reps per set, and hold the last rep as long as possible before releasing it slowly.
Some great ab exercises include:
Weighted Ab exercises: Machine Double-Crunches (machine where you put your hands behind your head and put your feet behind a pad and pull up with your feet and down with your hands simultaneously), hanging leg raises while holding a dumbbell with your feet, forward seated crunch machine (pad on your chest, feet locked in place, bend forward at the waist), decline situps (with a weight plate or medicine ball on your chest), flat crunches (with a weight or medicine ball on your chest), Laying Machine Weighted Situps, etc.
Unweighted (bodyweight) Ab exercises: Crunches, hanging leg raises, incline situps, roman chair situps, standing knee raises, cherry pickers, 6 inches + 90 degrees (laying leg lifts), planks, etc.
