5'7", 250 lbs fatty here. How many situps/leg ups/crunches should I do daily so that by the time I lose all this weight my abs will have some definition? I'm planning to lose about 1.5 lbs a week.
Pre-planning gains
Started 4 months ago, 250lb fatty as well. My routine includes Planks, Penguins, leg lifts, scissor kicks, crunches, and situps. Focus on stuff that obliques, upper and lower Abs seperately. It'll be easier to get around the belly.
Good luck bro. We're all gonna make it
Ab wheel and planks, crunches will strain your spine long term
you already have abdominal muscles. if you lose enough weight, you will "have abs."
go lift and stop worrying about these gay isolation waste of time exercises.
Thanks guys.
I want them to be well defined. Abs are still muscles
Oh also I can't lift atm, shoulder injury.
i get that, but don't you think you have bigger priorities at this point? definition will come as you lose weight dude.
Isolation exercises for weight loss are a meme. Isolation exercises to build muscles that have been neglected are very helpful. I've been working on hips and shoulders so I can start squatting properly.
Us fatties actually need to target some stuff when we begin weight lifting
Oh well of course I'm doing fork put downs and cardio, but if I can do more, why not?
I'm 5'7 and started cutting a week ago at 187lbs. I don't have abs ATM but will at about 160-165. But ive been lifting for 5 years......so you would prob have to get down to 140s to have abs as a nonlifter at 5'7.
