In fact, there are many answers to these questions online, which I believe everyone has seen. But the online answers to these questions are different. Take whether abdominal muscles can be practiced every day. Some people say you can practice every day, while others say you can practice every other day.
So here, we also give you an answer to seven common questions about exercising abdominal muscles. Let's have a look.

Can abdominal muscles be practiced every day?
No!
It is true that abdominal muscles belong to endurance muscles and need to be stimulated frequently. But endurance muscle is also a muscle, so you should give it time to grow again like other muscle parts.
Moreover, in the actual exercise process, many actions will be brought to the abdominal muscles, such as hard pulling, squatting, standing, pushing, etc ... So it can be said that going to the gym every day will exercise the abdominal muscles to a certain extent, so there is no need to deliberately take time to exercise the abdominal muscles every day.
Generally speaking, it is almost enough to exercise abdominal muscles twice a week (three times is certainly no problem). In addition, I want to remind you that abdominal muscles exercise not only rectus abdominis, but also oblique abdominis, transverse abdominis, erector spinae and serratus. These places should also be taken into account.
Exercising abdominal muscles can reduce the fat on the stomach and expose the abdominal muscles?
No! Many people who walk into the gym will tell their personal trainer that I just want to practice my stomach and lose weight.
However, we Oriental Hulk emphasized more than once that there is no local fat reduction, and we can only lose weight together if we want to lose weight, and from the effect of fat reduction, high-intensity aerobic interval training or repeated joint action training is much better.
Exercising abdominal muscles only makes your abdominal muscles bigger, but if you are covered with a thick layer of fat, it won't help to make your abdominal muscles bigger.
Of course, although abdominal exercise can't reduce the fat on the stomach, it is still necessary. After all, core functions have a great impact on your health and exercise table.
Body fat drops to about 10%. See abdominal muscles?
Yes! There is a comparison table of body fat between men and women on the Internet, which I believe everyone has seen. Generally speaking, when men's body fat is around 10%- 12%, they can see clear abdominal muscles.
Although your abdominal muscles will return to brightness as long as you exercise hard, the amount of body fat is related to heredity, because the fat distribution in different human bodies is different.
The same body fat rate. Some people may have clearly visible abdominal muscles, while others do not.
But generally speaking, as long as you can reach 10% body fat, your abdominal muscles will definitely show up.
Is a person with good abdominal muscles healthy?
No! Just having clear abdominal muscles doesn't mean that your body is healthy (although it is true in most cases)
Clearly visible abdominal muscles often require strong self-discipline, so in most cases, people with clear abdominal muscles work hard and have good eating habits. Of course, such people are healthier.
However, some people's abdominal muscles come from "insufficient energy intake" and "excessive aerobic exercise", which is actually harmful to the body.
Therefore, it is better to judge a person's health from his performance in various sports than from his abdominal muscle training.
Anyone can develop clearly visible abdominal muscles?
Yes! I often hear people say, "I will get fat when I drink water, and my abdominal muscles will definitely not develop." It is obviously an exaggerated expression to get fat when drinking water.
In fact, anyone can get clearly visible abdominal muscles through hard exercise and good eating habits.
But the number of abdominal muscles is really genetically determined. Some people can have six abdominal muscles, some people can have eight, and some people can even have 10 abdominal muscles. But generally speaking, there are more people with 6 abdominal muscles and 4 abdominal muscles.
Exercise can reduce waistline?
Half right and half wrong! Reducing the body fat rate through good exercise and eating habits can naturally make your waistline smaller.
On the other hand, if you are a very thin person and exercise your abdomen (especially do some weight-bearing training), your waist circumference will not only become smaller ... but also become bigger.
As we said before, abdominal muscles, like other muscle groups, can be enlarged through weight-bearing training, and the natural waist circumference will also be enlarged.
In addition, I would like to remind you that the waist circumference will increase obviously when you exercise the external oblique muscle with heavy weight, so if you want to exercise the external oblique muscle, please choose to exercise with low weight or self-weight.
P.S. So you will see that most athletes don't pull hard before the competition, because pulling hard will thicken their waists and they need a perfect inverted triangle during the competition.
Can the waist seal reduce the waist circumference?
No! To be honest … I hesitate to write this last one, because many private teachers or gyms will make money by selling this thing, and some people in my circle of friends also sell it.
But in fact ... this thing is useless, except to make you look sexier when you exercise in the gym.
So far, there is no evidence that this "waist-binding" can effectively reduce the waist circumference.
If you really want to talk about the role of waist binding ... it may be to "heat" the waist (that is, to maintain blood circulation). Of course, this effect will not be obvious. If you really want to protect your waist and abdomen, you might as well buy a waist protector.
So recognize the reality, don't trust those equipment and props, you still have to rely on sweat and self-discipline to have clearly visible abdominal muscles.
Finally, in view of what I said above, I want to say that some people will refute their own situation. For example, some people may practice abdominal muscles every day, and abdominal muscles really come out. Some people only practice abdominal muscles twice a week, but they can't. Then they say, Bian Xiao, you hit your face in minutes.
Admittedly, everyone's situation is different, and the above viewpoint may not be applicable to some people, but it is somewhat arbitrary to refute the conclusion of long-term testing with only one example. In addition, the reason why your fitness is effective is not necessarily that you exercise every day. There are also two times a week that have no effect, probably because this so-called two times is just "soy sauce."
Of course, Bian Xiao, I don't expect everyone to agree with me. I just hope that people who think what I said makes sense can help forward it and share it with more people.
