Sit-ups can build abdominal muscles, so why don’t many people see any results?

Nowadays, the pace of life in society is very fast, and the pressure on young people is increasing. Many people cannot realize the idea of ​​going to the gym to exercise, but everyone still wants to have a strong body and a perfect figure. People hope to achieve the effect of exercising the abdominal muscles through sit-ups, but many people have reported that there is no effect. So, if sit-ups can build abdominal muscles, why do many people not see any effects? Let me show you today.

I see many people asking every day how to train abdominal muscles. They have been training for a long time, can do a lot of sit-ups, and can even tear their abdominal muscles, but their abdominal muscles just don’t grow. Share your experience with everyone.

For those with high body fat, concentrate on training the abdominal muscles. Even though the abdominal muscles have been trained, they are not obvious because of high body fat. Therefore, you need to coordinate anaerobic and aerobic exercises. You can do a set of sit-ups and then go running to burn fat, or jump rope, and use aerobic exercise instead of rest time. This will burn abdominal fat faster. After aerobic exercise, you can continue to train the abdominal muscles. The aerobic abdominal muscles will be relaxed but the exercise does not stop. The author often tortures himself in this way and feels the effect is quite fast. When doing sit-ups, whether it is a yoga mat or an abdominal muscle bench, everyone has a misunderstanding. When using a yoga mat, some people like to put heavy objects on their legs to press their legs, and when using an abdominal muscle bench, the calves will be pressed against the place where the legs are stuck. If you do this, your lower limbs will exert force every time you complete a sit-up, and it will be easier to do, which will affect the training of your abdominal muscles. This way, the abdominal muscles are not completely exerting force. The strength of the lower limbs and the inertia of the body account for a large proportion, and the abdominal muscles are not fully exercised. Therefore, many people have been exercising for a long time and still feel that there is no effect. Moreover, no matter it is training abdominal muscles or other places, people always say that the movements are not standard and the postures are wrong. The author feels that there is no so-called standard or non-standard for training each muscle. All fitness methods are invented by humans. If you want to exercise the muscle, you should make this muscle exert force, contract and stretch so that it can be exercised. Moreover, not everyone's bone development is the same. The standard is only determined according to one's own quality.

When doing sit-ups, the leg muscles are completely relaxed all the way down to the feet. Hold your head with both hands, then exhale to expel the air in your stomach and allow your abdominal muscles to contract better. Don't lift your body up. Start contracting your abdominal muscles and slowly lift your body up. Use the power of the contracted abdominal muscles to lift your body up. Don't do it too fast and don't rely on inertia. Just let your elbows touch your thighs. After that, the body falls about 15 degrees from the ground. The purpose is to prevent the abdominal muscles from relaxing and to keep the abdominal muscles exerting force. One sit-up and you're done.

Through the above introduction, everyone must have a definite answer to why sit-ups can train abdominal muscles but many people don’t see any effect. Of course, we can't just do sit-ups, we can also do them in conjunction with jogging. As long as you exercise, there will be results, it just depends on whether you persist. Follow the above method, as long as you can persist, you will get the effect you want.
