Jakarta, Spasi-id.com - Did sit up remove the belly fat? Many of the medical experts revealed that it was a myth. So far, there has been no study that has said that sports can specifically target the body part.
In origin, the sit-up movement is good for strengthening the lower abdomen and back, but it doesn't affect the body fat stored in the area.
This movement can strengthen and tighten the abdominal rectus or muscle-compiling abdominal transversus or the deepest layer of abdominal muscles, quoting Cleveland Clinic.
Doing a sit-up would certainly not help to get a flat stomach. The sit-up movement doesn't target the abdomen specifically, but it can help remove the fat in the entire body.
Doing situps with intensity for 10 minutes without a break can burn 60 calories, quoting the Times of India. Weight also has a big role to play.
If the weight is less than 68 kilograms, there will be fewer calories that burn at a given time. If it weighs over 68 pounds, the sit-ups will burn more calories if it does seven situps in one minute.
To reduce stomach fat requires a disciplinary regime and dedication of some balanced sport.
So, if you want to remove the fat from the stomach, the first thing to do is do the lunge, leg raise, twist crunch, and reverse crunch in your sports routine.
Don't be too strict with yourself in the beginning. Start gradually and keep increasing the number of lunge and crunch that you do. Don't forget to warm up before starting the sport.
To burn fat on the stomach, it takes 45 to 60 minutes of high-intensity cardiovascular activity like running, playing football or basketball, jumping rope, and walking around almost every day of the week.
You also need to reduce processed food, fast food, and alcohol. So what do you think, does a sit up remove the belly fat?
