Losing a pound of fat in a week requires creating a caloric deficit of about 3,500 calories. This means that you must burn around this many more calories than you consume through your diet and exercise combined. Calorie breakdown for 100 curl-ups in 3-6 minutes:
- 125 pounds: 13.5-27 calories per minute
- 155 pounds: 16.7-31 calories per minute
Assuming you burn at a moderate pace and perform 100 curl-ups in 3-6 minutes, the total burn would be approximately 15-27 calories. To burn 3,500 calories, you would need to perform curl-ups for 875-1550 minutes depending on your weight. Since it is not possible to perform this many curls in one week, it is not a realistic goal to expect substantial weight loss from curl-ups alone.
To effectively lose weight, it is important to pair regular exercise with a healthy diet that includes a sufficient caloric deficit. Eating a calorie-controlled diet and engaging in regular physical activity can help you achieve your weight loss goals. Additionally, it is essential to maintain proper nutrition and heartrate during exercise to ensure optimal results.
