Sit ups

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this site and am LOVING it!!!  I am having some difficulties determining the calorie burn count for sit ups.  I can't seem to find it in the activities.  Does anyone know what it would be for 200 sit ups?

Thanks

Here's under what I log my situps Calisthenics

There is this one also Calisthenics , but I think the light or moderate one is more accurate

That is great - thanks!!!

How do you log your sit ups in minutes...surely everybody takes different amounts of time to complete 200!? please help im new and confused...

I time how long it takes me to complete my situps and log the time. 

I  do the swedish clock work massage right before every session.Then I do the 85 babysits,after 42 days of this habit I had abs for the first time in my life. They were just screamin ,too. It actually was surprisingly easy if you just consistent twice of 85 repitions. Also, I used seran wrap around my gut when I bicycle or walk up hill, this traps fat cells that are  hard to keep from sticking to your side. I clean  my dressings up to 4 times a day. It may not be permaent but it get the instant feeling of lightness around the gut area. And it boosts your confidence that hardwork is actually effective.

traps fat cells?  I don't think so.  It might trap heat and cause you to sweat in that area, but that's just water, not fat. 

Oh dear -- restricting the air flow around your skin is a baaaddddd idea -- your body releases toxins (but definitely not fat) through your skin, and trapping them in an environment where water cannot evaporate could cause them to build up and create skin problems. 

Sweating a lot by wrapping yourself in plastic will never 'trap fat calls' or otherwise help you spot reduce. Neither will doing 100's of reps of an exercise like sit-ups, leg lifts, or any motion that is so easy your muscles can do it for ages without being depleted.

Spot reducing is simply not possible.   Here's an article explaining why.

Stick to a balanced diet slightly below your metabolic rate and get a minimum of 30 min of exercise per day, including strength-building exercises in rep ranges under 25.

Good luck!
