This is What Happens When You Do 10, 50 and 100 Sit-ups Every Morning
Today, there are quite a number of exercises that promise to keep us in shape and tone our bodies — it’s nothing new.
But the big question is, which one delivers the best results?
How can we plan our exercise routine to get the body of our dreams?
One of the many exercises I decided to try was sit-ups.
I just gave into the hype and of course, worked my body from doing 10 to 100 sit-ups every morning, and the good news is, I’ve never been better!
Before I talk about my results, I’ll like to point out that I was actually looking to shed some extra pounds and enjoy the other benefits that come with sit-ups — my drive and determination pushed me to start, and of course, they kept me going.
Here’s How It Went
First off, I started the journey with ten sit-ups per day — it wasn’t easy to begin with, but the good thing is, my core became stronger and stronger by the day.
As we know, sit-ups are a bodyweight exercise that helps to strengthen core muscles.
For the most part, body weight exercises give you the ability to tone your body and at the same time build functional strength to carry out your day to day tasks.
As time went on, I noticed a change in my stamina and that was probably because of the new strength in my core and back muscles – something I had never experienced before.
Moving up to 50 sit-ups, I saw great improvement in the flexibility of my hips and backs. This helped my muscles to perform at their peak.
What’s more, stronger core stability and flexibility improves your performance in other daily activities and tasks, taking away any strains I once had, making my life much easier!
After a couple of weeks, I decided to challenge myself to do up to 100 sit-ups every morning, and that wasn’t easy, but it was totally worth it.
Besides building overall body strength and muscle, the sit-ups also worked wonders on my metabolism.
The thing is, the process of building your muscles pushes you to consume a lot of calories; in essence, you keep burning them even after you’re done with workouts.
This actually helped a lot as I saw a significant difference in my body weight.
That said, I didn’t cut out the food — I ate lots of wholesome, healthy food and of course, did my sit-ups regularly. Talk about super healthy weight loss!
Lest not forget, the sit-ups really improved my posture and this was as a result of my stronger and toned core muscles.
What you should know is that tighter core muscles cause your back to naturally straighten out, thus giving you the perfect posture you’ve always wanted.
As we know, good posture can have positive lasting effects on the body, and it can also make your confidence to go through the roof — who wouldn’t want that?
To sum it up, I was able to break a sweat, strengthen my core muscles and of course, lose weight and straighten my posture — more like I got everything I was seeking for!
The best part? I didn’t have to spend a dime! The thing is, sit-ups demand your time and effort before you can see tangible results.
Just make the decision to get in shape today and start working towards your fitness goal. Good luck!
