What are the reasons why you can’t do sit-ups?

Sit-ups are becoming more and more popular among young people. It not only saves time and money. It is also a sport that can produce quick results in fitness. So many young people also followed the trend and did sit-ups to keep fit. But what is more frustrating is that some people cannot do sit-ups. I really feel the same way as the person involved. Why can't I even do a single sit-up? What's the reason? Let me first look at the reasons.

The abdominal muscles are too weak and the force of the abdominal muscles contraction is not enough to pull your upper body up from a lying position. Method: Strengthen abdominal muscle training. If you can't do any sit-ups, start with the simple ones. Don't hold your head with your hands. Put your hands on your sides. This will reduce the weight on your abdominal muscles and you will usually be able to stand up. If you persist in exercising, your muscles will become stronger and stronger. Gradually, you will be able to start doing normal sit-ups and do them more and more often. However, exercise is a long process and the results will not be seen in one or two days. It should be done step by step and you cannot become fat in one bite. The main reason for this situation is that your upper body weight is relatively large and your abdominal muscles are relatively weak. If you want to lose weight now, I suggest you do aerobic exercise for more than 45 minutes every day. Then add equipment training. Since I haven't met you in person, I can't give you any plan here. But I can give you some suggestions.

First of all, you should understand that sit-ups are just an exercise for the abdomen. It is impossible to lose weight by doing sit-ups because this exercise is not an isolated force. Simply put, it is not only the abdominal muscles that participate in the exercise. In other words, there are other muscles involved in the exercise, but these parts are very few when added together. The fat you consume during the exercise is the fat of the whole body. If you want to consume the fat of the whole body by this simple exercise, I think it is probably enough to do 10,000 a day. So I suggest you do some aerobic exercise that most muscle groups can participate in. In addition to aerobics, you can also do running, stationary cycling, elliptical machine training, or rowing machine. This will maximize your fat consumption.

Second, it is the issue of drinking water during exercise. Because you will sweat a lot during exercise, some people can lose several pounds after doing aerobics, don't be happy, because they only lose water in the body. After a bottle of water goes out of the stomach, the weight will go up again immediately. If you want to lose fat (that is, lose fat), you should consume as many calories as possible during aerobic exercise. The most obvious reaction of calorie consumption is hitting the ball. When the water in your body is consumed, if you exercise again at this time, you have to rely on breaking down fat to provide water, so that you can really lose weight. Therefore, if you drink water without limit during the entire exercise, you'd better consume water, not fat! So the correct way to drink water is to drink 20ML (milliliters) of water every 20 minutes! You can measure it yourself with a mineral water bottle, it's very little! Basically just take a sip.

Third, following up on the second point, the fat in the human body is divided into subcutaneous fat and deep fat. I suggest that you use equipment training during aerobic training, because that can better break down your deep fat. You must know that deep fat accounts for a large part of the fat in the human body.

After reading this information, I finally understand why some people can't do sit-ups. It turned out that it was because the abdominal strength was too weak. It seems that there is a minimum threshold for doing sit-ups. If you want to do sit-ups, you should take the time to strengthen your abdominal strength first. Only after that, you can do sit-ups.
