You can gain muscle on your waist line by working your lower and and obliques. When most people work their abs they will do sit ups which work all Ab groups but it mainly targets your upper abs. To get the most out of your Ab workouts you should begin say Monday working your upper abs only. You can do crunches, use an Ab machine, or sit ups. Then on Tuesday work your obliques which are your abs on the side of your body. You can do sit ups while Turning to your side and you can get a bench press bar and sit the bar on your shoulders while sitting down and turning your upper body from side to side. An Ab coaster I feel is the best workout for your obliques. If you have access to one I would recommend to use it. Then on Wednesday you should work your lower abs. To do this you can do reverse crunches or raising your legs 6 inches off of the ground and holding the position. You can also do leg lifts while on a bench lowering your legs past the bottom of the bench. Those are just a few workouts to give you some ideas. You then repeat that process throughout the week taking off Sunday. You should do 3 sets of each exercise with 15 reps in each set. After you build your abs and have a solid muscle structure you should then begin to run a few days a week. You can start out running 2 days a week say Tuesday and Thursday. Then bump it up to 3 days a week changing it to say Monday, Wednesday and Friday from there you could bump it up to say Monday - Friday.
