How many sit ups a day to get a 6 pack?!
Question: You can not target fat loss. To get a six pack you need to lower your overall body fat % to lower than 10%
The key is: Diet Diet Diet, then exercise:
You need to eat 5-6 small meals a day. Eat some protein with each meal! Cut out all refined sugar!!! Also add more fiber. The fiber and protein will fill you up, helping you to cut down on your unhealthy eating. Also by eating more than 3 meals spread out through the day you will kick your metabolism in high gear. Here is a general meal for a day:
Breakfast: 2 poached eggs
whole wheat toast
1/2 cup fruit
Snack: Cottage Cheese with veggie
Lunch: Turkey, lettuce, tomato, whole wheat bread sandwich
1/2 cup fruit
Snack: Protein Shake
Dinner: Turkey Burger ( no bun )
Side of brown rice
Side of Broc.
Then exercise regularly 4-5 days a week. Do both cardio and lifting. But on days that you do both. Do lifting before your cardio and you will maximize your fat burn. Cardio can be a sport: basketball, soccer, football, anything with losts of movement. Golf is a no no.
So Example :
Monday - 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
Tuesday - 1 hour lifting
Wednesday - Rest
Thrusday - 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
Friday - 1 hour lifting
Saturday - Rest
Sunday - 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio

none.
low body fat percentage does.
hahahaha
do as many reps of a certain number that u can manage then keep track then progress daily
You could do as many sit-ups as you want, but if you have fat covering your abs they won't be very visible.
Most people who are fairly active already have abs which are a good shape/size - but the composition of their body means that they're often not seen.
Eat a clean and healthy diet, take regular exercise and your abs will eventually be displayed.
100 Situps a day.
DONT STOP

None at all.....
In order to get a 'six pack', your bodyfat levels have to be very low, ie between 4-10% but this varies depending on the individual. To get the fat down, eat clean (ie, if it's man made, then don't eat it! only natural produce such as porridge, wholegrains etc), and do HIIT (high intensity interval training) which basically means chosing a form of cardio exercise, like cycling, running, and then going hell for leather for 2 mins, and then going more gently for a min then repeating. When doing this, it is important to stretch and warm up before, and stretch and warm down after. Your training should last no longer than 40 mins either, as your body begins to eat it's muscle stores as it has run out of glycogen inwhcih to feed upon.
To exercise the abdominal area, simply buy a swiss ball, and do swiss ball crunches, and jacknifes and the best, the plank.
(if you are unsure on these moves, google them)
Swiss ball crunches 4 sets of about 10-20 (ability dependant)
Jacknifes 4 sets of 10 (knife position lasting about 5 secs)
Plank 4 sets of 20 secs moving the ball from side to side.
Hope this helps!
