you say that crunches wont get rid of it, but how long did you do them for? and how many at a time, and how often?
it's been my experience that crunches can fix almost anything if you do enough for long enough. |

QUOTE(dragyn @ Jan 3 2005, 7:22 PM) you say that crunches wont get rid of it, but how long did you do them for? and how many at a time, and how often? it's been my experience that crunches can fix almost anything if you do enough for long enough. crunches only TONE the muscle NOT remove the fat OVER the muscle. to REMOVE that, cardiovasular exercise must be done. Meaning, your heart must be pumping LOTS and LOTS of blood to your muscles, sweat pouring out of your pores, and your lungs taking in twice the amount of oxygen as normal. Riding your bike, rollerblading, swimming, surfing, kick boxing, running, etc is the type of workout that can help eliminate that fat around your stomach area. HOWEVER, that pudge is actually quite normal. My only question for you is, how old are you? Depending on your age, you may still be growing. If the bump feel kind of hard and ridgidty, I'd tell your parents and have it examined by a doctor just to be safe. But, if it isn't, there really isn't anything to fret about. You'll have more stressors in your life than a smal patch of pudge below your belly button. |
