It seems that so many people are still practicing old exercises and cranking out hundreds of situps on a daily basis in the hope of reducing stomach fat and developing their 6 pack abs.

I can remember when I was a child watching my mother do endless sets of crunches on a daily basis in order to get ripped abs. She read a woman’s health magazine that doing endless sets of crucnches would get her ripped abs and believe it or not, was doing 700 or more crunches on a daily basis every day for several weeks.

As with many other people who attempt to get ripped abs, she ended up getting discouraged as a result of the endless sets of crunches simply because they were not producing the results that she desired.
