The group commands for identifying the belly go at the end of the file,
after the &rst commands that define the distance restraints.

Getting zero for everything implies some deeper problem than just the
wrong order of things in the input. But you gave so little information
in your post that it is not possible to be of much help. At a minimum, we
would need to know what the input file looks like.
