six pack but will no sit ups?
- Thread starter happy01
- Start date
the 'six pack' muscle is no different to any other muscle in your body. The muscle itself will be visible when your body fat is low enough to reveal it, but unless you have developed the muscle (or are very lucky genetically) you will not have the standard six pack.
any cardio will aid fat burning, but only as part of a good training plan and great diet. you cannot build muscle and burn fat at the same time no matter what you do. Sit ups do not magically build abs, cardio does not magically remove fat
at 15, you're not fully grown enough to seriously alter your body through muscle gaining or losing body fat - your body is trying to grow all by itself without any extra effort so its tough to train like the majority of people on this board would.
id choose either building up or cutting down and then start but do it slowly. If you do either to excessively you'll stop your body from its natural growth.

Correct. It helps to remove fat via the laws of physics.
no one likes a smart arse.
it only does it, by physics, magic or whatever else, if diet is in check. eat bad and run means you're wasting your time. eat more than you need and you will still add weight, eat less and you risk starvation mode. plus cardio will eat into muscle, reducing the six pack you hope to reveal
and besides, going out for a run burns kcalories up until you stop and eat a little, resistance training increases metabolism over a 24-48 hour period, burning more kcalories. cardio is nothing without a greater idea of overall training and a spot on diet
im going to **** all over your next post.
