Are pushups and sit ups enough?

Question

Hi
Im a pretty lean guy, i weight about 145-155 lbs
and im about 5'10

i want to try to get toned by summer

i was wondering if doing about 200-300 push ups a day and about 600-700 sit ups a day would make much of a difference by the summer time?

since i dont have a gym this is the only option i have

thanks in advance

Answer 1

Yeah just break them down at night and in the morning. So do 100 push ups and 300 sit ups in the morning. And the same at night, somtimes that can be better than going to the gym.

Answer 2

NO it's not enought unless you are naturally lean and already have this sort of physique. Refer to bodybuilding.com for some great ideas. Just buy some barbells and include some of the activities into your regime.

Answer 3

The most important thing is to do something. Keep on doing what your doing and try to mix it up. Whenever you get the chance, hit the weights. Also try to up your calories and protein intake.

Answer 4

they will have no effect on the reduction of body fat. you need to clean up your diet and do some form of interval training to increase your resting metabolic rate..
