How many sit-ups should I do every day to be effective?

I believe that when it comes to sit-ups, most of my friends will not feel unfamiliar, but rather feel quite familiar. Because when we were young, our teachers would often let us do this exercise in physical education class. At that time, it was mainly to train our mind and perseverance, but now it is widely used in weight loss. So how many sit-ups should you do every day to be effective? In response to this question, please join me in today's discussion.

It depends on your physical condition. If your lower abdomen is large, it is recommended to do 30 reps a day, divided into three times. Do 15 reps the first time, and rest for 5 minutes; do 10 reps the second time, and rest for 3 minutes; do 5 reps the third time, and then move your body and do some aerobic exercise. If your belly is not too big, you can increase the number of reps by 5-10 reps each time.

Doing sit-ups can indeed exercise your abdominal muscles, but their fat-reducing effect is actually very weak, because sit-ups can consume about 480 calories per hour (based on a 60kg weight), provided that you have to do them for 1 hour. But can most people do it for an hour? NO! It will take no more than 5 minutes to do 50 or 100 of them. That is 40 calories consumed. For fat loss, 40 calories is really too little. Eating an apple contains more than 100 calories.

Everyone will feel a sore stomach after doing sit-ups. The abdominal muscles are exercised. If you do it frequently, there will be more muscle tissue on the stomach. If combined with other exercises, your lower abdomen will become more beautiful and flatter.

Moreover, the lumbar spine will be more flexible. There is a previous report saying that it can prevent pelvic diseases (for female compatriots).

The more sit-ups you do, the better. Generally speaking, do it 3-4 times a week, 50-100 times each time. That's about it. You can choose several different sit-up variations (crunches)

I believe that through the discussion of the above paragraphs, most friends have a clearer conclusion about the specific data. In fact, sit-ups are not difficult to do in our daily life. On the contrary, they are very simple. However, we must also follow the standard of movements, otherwise there is a possibility of straining muscles. At the same time, we must persist and not do it half-heartedly.
