Do situps get you a 6 pack?

Answer 1

A six pack are just the muscles that are located in your abdominal area. By getting a six pack, you are in essesnce getting rid of the fat that is covering your six pack (i.e. love handles) and once you eliminate the fat, you will be able to see the six pack. So yes, in order to get a six pack, you will have to work off the love handles

Answer 2

Depends on the person. It depends on how close you are on, what your diet is like, if your doing any other excersises, what is the frequency you are doing them, how many are you doing. Impossible to say without more information. But let's say you were a 100% average Joe. Then NO they would most likely not. They may help build up your stomach muscles but the layer of fat sitting on-top of your stomach muscles would cloud them from ever being seen. Along with this, since you only used one excersie, it does not give maximum results. I, for example, use 3 Core Workout excersises(Sit-ups, the Plank, and the Air Bike) and i'm still trying to expand. Different excersises work at your muscles in different ways, so a mix is most efficient.

But let's say you were very close, the layer of fat was little to none, your diet was decent, and you did quite a few of them. Then yes they might just push you over teh top to abs. But for someone who has some distance to cover, just sit-ups will give very slow results and little results.

Answer 3

Yes it helps,but to get best results you should combine cardio+weights+healthy low fat diet.

Answer 4

Yes, but it takes a rather lengthy amount of time. You have to already have a six pack though. All that really happens is that the bench amplifies the pack, it can't really make it appear.
