Will this effect my workout routine ?

Question

ok i been doin alot of ab exercises and push up's and i was wondering if i should take a break or it will be fine to keep goin with my workout routine tryin to see result in 2 weeks

Answer 1

Yes, it isn't such a good idea to do this type of exercise every single day. Your muscles will need time to heal so they grow stronger. If you keep pushing them every day, they won't heal properly and you won't improve as well.

Every second day is best for exercises like weights and push ups and ab work.

Answer 2

10 situps

10 V-ups (Touch your hands to your toes, but crunch your body so that they meet midway in the air)

10 lemon squeezers (Position yourself sitting up, put hands at side, and move your torso back into a laying position while extending your legs straight ahead. Now just row your legs to a bend while crunching toward them w/ your torso, then go back to laying position. repeat process)

10 back hypers (lay on stomach, basically a reverse cruncher)

10 Leg lifts (Lay on back, lift straight legs to 45 degree angle, then bring back to ground)

30 seconds of bicycles (Lay on ground, and mimick a bicycle pedal motion w/ your legs)

10 side crunchers each side

10 regular crunchers

30 seconds of flutter kicks (Lay on back, keep both legs straight. Lift them up bairly, now alternate between raising each leg a little bit and brining it back down. This one is tought at first, but after a week it will be easy. Try to think of being a swimmer while doing this one)

10 kick ups (Lay down, bring knees up toward chest, then kick legs upward to become straight in the air.)

10 side double leg lifts (Hard to explain, basically lay on side, and lift both legs simultaneously as high as you can. Will feel weird at first)

10 Forward Rows (Way too hard to explain, google it)

10 Russian Twists (Google it)

10 Scissor Kicks (Lay on back, spread leags apart in air, bring them back to center with one leg above the other, then alternate to mimick a scissor kicking action)

Finish with a bridge for however long you think you can do it.

Once this routine becomes easy, don't up the reps, just do the whole routine twice. (Left a few out for explanation's sake)

Then also do your run at night. Cut excessive fat out of your diet, but you can have a little still.

Do it and you will have some abs

Answer 3

Short answer.  Exercising every day with no rest in between doesn't allow the muscle to grow and repair itself.  It will increase endurance however and burn more calories.  So, your course of action depends on the results you want.

Answer 4

It's fine to do cardio exercises every but push ups and crunches are strengthening and toning and exercises, and I would recommend that they be performed every other day instead. In order for them to be effective, your body needs time to recover and rebuild the muscle fibers that you have broken down through the exercise.  

Answer 5

Workout every other day
