How Many Situps Do I Need To Do A Day To Get A Sixpack? - 8/16/2005 2:51:20 PM   
Guest
Hi, I'm looking to get a sixpack, and I was wondering how many situps I should do a day to get it. I am 14 years old, I am between 5'3, and 5'6, and I weight about 140.

Thank you.

well to start doing 100 sit ups a day its good. The good way is to drink alot of water (3 liters) a day. And also do alot of cardio, consider running works better. Then u could move from 100 sit ups to 200 and so on. Feed your body protein and let it rest, then someother day work out.

no way dude, dont do situps. sit ups are for homos. swiss ball crunches are the way to go. cardio is important. work your obliques, too (muscles to the sides of the abs) you gotta frame a pretty picture witha pretty frame, so frame your abds with good obliques, overworking them makes you look fat tho.

you cant build muscle OVER fat. you have to lose your layer of tummy fat before your abs can start showing. So therefore you really do need cardio workout.

i wouldnt say sit ups are for homos...but i do a ten minute ab workout everyday---wich u can do unlike other muscle groups because the abs recover very quickly. but i do a series of "sit ups" every day and it seems to be workin a lot for me. but the big thing is being lean in your abdomen area. i know that you have to work off the fat for the muscle to show through...thats the hard part. building up your abs just depends on you...everybody is different...find out wat works best for you and stick with it...i can give me workout if you need it....

Try not to do it every day, I say do it every other day, or if you can't do that just shoot for 2-3 times a week.

Dude I would agree that sit ups are a thing of the past. If you want to get a six pack start throwing some weight in on your ab workouts. Plus it's also beneficial to work out your obliques and transverse abdominus to help in this process.

mate, no way you should be doing 100 sit ups evry day. the abs are muscles , just like ur biceps and chest . Would you do 100 bench press reps and 100 bicep curls evry day? They are muscles so you need to treat them the same way. The thing is it doesnt matter how hard you train ur abs , u wont see them if u have a layer of fat covering them. To be able to see the abs men need to be less then 10% body fat. for well defined abs u need to be 6 -7 % body fat.

The best way wood be to do swiss ball crunches and bridges , when doing crunches use a medicine ball so u have sum resistance . You wouldnt press just the bar with no wiehgts so y wood u crunch with no weight.

If any further questions, dont hesistate to ask

I have been told to do 100 situps a day, which is perfectly fine. Just make sure you are doing the situp right. It also depends on your cardio routine and heavily on your diet. Six packs aren't made in the gym, they are made in the kitchen. (or wherever you eat)

I started to get a nice pronounced stomach before I changed my routine. I would do leg exercises whilst lead on my back, such as imitation cycling in the air.
