Doing sit up
-
Is it true that doing sit up does not help or helps a little to the abs?
And if i have fats , Do i have to remove them first then i do the necessary training to tone up my abs? -
I think it helps but to what what extent i am not sure...

Might be "Chim", ask any questions if unsure.
Thats my moderator in the "flash player" damn big and strong guy.Very athletic as well.
Try high rep bodyweight calisthenics intervals, screw the jogging.
10 inclinced chin ups
10 squats
10 pushups
10 star jumps(land gracefully)
10 lunges
Rest no more than a minute
You can try this 10-15 mins EACH in the morning, night and noon.
Dont think that 10 mins is little, its the density of the exercise not the period.I got this from the net(forgot the website).It has worked well for me shedding away some fats.
Dont cut calories back, infact EAT MORE.NO KIDDING.BUT doesnt give you the liberty to gorge on junk.I mean more good food that is steamed/grilled like meat and vegetables. -

do these intervals 3 times daily, every day? or only on non-training days? also, how to do graceful landing for starjumps, land with feet together, same as starting position?Originally posted by Simon Dean:http://www.optimumperformance.com.sg/article%20-%20abs.htm

and are these intervals supposed to be done in a fast tempo, or normal weight traing tempo? -
medium fast tempo.if you a beginneer then do your own pace.Originally posted by JoBonez:do these intervals 3 times daily, every day? or only on non-training days? also, how to do graceful landing for starjumps, land with feet together, same as starting position?

what i mean is land slowly properly -
ok, ill do these on my off days, should make for a nice change from slow boring cardioOriginally posted by Simon Dean:medium fast tempo.if you a beginneer then do your own pace.

dont think ill have the energy to do these on training days too. -
You can do them AFTER training.No kidding.Maybe just reduce 2-3 reps off.Originally posted by JoBonez:ok, ill do these on my off days, should make for a nice change from slow boring cardio dont think ill have the energy to do these on training days too.
I forgot to mention that after one round, you can catch your breath a bit(no more than 30 secs though) -
huh...must 1 shot finish?Originally posted by Simon Dean:You can do them AFTER training.No kidding.Maybe just reduce 2-3 reps off.

what i listed
the 5 exercises of 10 reps each is counted as a round. -
Might be too much volume for a beginner. I'd start with either less reps or less of those exercises first. As you progress, you can add in the reps/sets/exercises or reduce the rest time.
-
Thats why i recommand the beginner can do at his own relaxed pace(of course still cannot rest so damn long)
-
It'll probably be more effective if the beginner chooses less reps/sets/exercises but does it at a higher intensity, than go through the 50 reps at a slower pace. The key here is to do these at a higher intensity so your heart rate goes up, so choose however many sets/reps/exercises you can tahan, and keep the rest short. No point taking 2-3mins doing the 50 reps at a relaxed pace so that you can do more sets later IMHO.
