Hour long is too long to work out?
Depends entirely on what you are after, muscle endurance? or muscle strength. If you want muscle endurance i recomend a longer workout, about 2-4 hours 3 times a week. How you do this is you take a light weight. say you have a 45 lb bench press bar. your max is 200 (max weight you can bench at least 1 rep.) you would stick 2x 35 lb weights on. do this like a normal bench press. but SLOW slowly resist down to ur chest. as soon as it hits your chest. pop it. push it up fast. that will shock train your muscles, extending endurance. if you want muscle strength, you will workout for about 1-2.5 hours 4-5 times a week, try to prevent doing the same exercise to days in a rown, it will weaken ur muscles. if you are looking to look toned and ripped, then run, run forest run. it tones your muscles, making them more defined.

What exercises can you do on a big exercise ball?
The ball is a great way to add instability to your workouts, increasing difficulty, and allowing your body to work as a whole. Any routine that utilizes your body weight is best. Some ideas include:
- Superman on the ball
- Hamstring Curls
- Planks
- Squats
- Push ups
To maximize the effectiveness, I recommend engaging your core at the same time and really focusing on form. Doing sit ups on the ball is a common exercise but I do not recommend this. Most people, if not all, do sit ups in a flexion motion. With flexion you add increased pressure on your spine, which is one of the leading causes for lower back pain.

No they do not. Too much food and insufficient exercise is the usual reason for a person having a "Big Butt". The solution to "fat butt syndrome" is obvious. Don't eat rubbish/snack/fast foods at all. Eat less (have smaller portions) and exercise (walk or run briskly/rapidly) more and more often.

How long does it take you to get rid of your belly by doing 10 sit ups per day?
very difficult to say. sit ups are a very good choice but i think you should mix it up with cardio exercise also. i.e brisk walking/jogging/running/swimming/playing football/hockey/tennis whatever you like. I guarantee your belly will lose fat . You can also perform some abdominal exercises like crunches etc. Look at the website shapefit.com or scoobysworkshop.com It will help you a lot
