Angling to get the abs of a Victoria's Secret model? One personal trainer insists that sticking to sit-ups won't get you there.
想要練成“維多利亞的秘密”模特的馬甲線？一位私人教練告訴你堅持做仰臥起坐不能讓你如愿以償。
Trainer Joslyn Thompson Rule said that crunches and sit-ups are not the way to tone your tummy, and even buckling down and doing up to 500 a day is unlikely to get you closer to your six-pack goals.
教練喬斯琳·湯普森·魯爾表示，單純只做仰臥起坐不能練出腹肌，甚至每天做500個仰臥起坐也不能讓你實現(xiàn)六塊腹肌的目標。
'Just doing sit-ups alone won't get you rock hard abs because you're only working to strengthen one singular area, which is like trying to build the outer layers of a house with no foundations underneath,' she explained.
她解釋說，“只做仰臥起坐不能練腹肌，因為你僅僅是在鍛煉一個身體部位，這就好比是為一個還沒有地基的房子修建外墻。”
So what exactly do sit-ups do? Joslyn said they work your 'external muscles', but don't actually build up the core or the obliques that give you that washboard look.
那么仰臥起坐到底有什么用？喬斯琳說，做仰臥起坐鍛煉了“外部肌肉”，實際上對斜肌沒有作用，而后者才是練出馬甲線的關鍵。
That means that unless you're doing sit-ups as part of a greater work-out routine - like with cardio and planks - you shouldn't expect to see any visible results when looking at your tummy in the mirror.
這意味著，除了仰臥起坐，還要定期進行其他健身活動，比如有氧運動、平板支撐，否則就別指望著對著鏡子里的肚子能看出任何效果。
Joslyn also stressed the importance of a healthy diet, which is the foundation of looking more muscular in the middle. Exercise - even when you're doing more ab-effective workouts - can only go so far if you're not eating right.
喬斯琳也強調(diào)了健康飲食的重要性，健康飲食是鍛煉腹肌的基礎。如果你飲食不合理，即使是做一些更有助于練腹肌的運動，也只會收效甚微。
