Postpartum Weight Loss- Ab Work Everyday?

To Sara of Fit by Sara: “Is it beneficial to do abdominal work every day?”

From Sara of Fit by Sara: “It won’t hurt to do abdomial work such as crunches everyday, but it won’t give you a six pack if that’s what you’re looking for.  Abdominal crunches will firm your abdominals, but you won’t see muscle definition until you lose body fat.  If you want to see muscle definition you need to eat lean and get your heart rate up several times per week.  Eating lean is: lean meats, wheat or whole grain breads and pastas, plenty of veggies and fruit, and low fat milk, cheese, and yogurt. Get your heart rate up through walking, jogging, swimming, and even various forms of yoga for a min. of 30-45 min..   Once you eat lean and consistently get your heart rate up (3-5 X per week), you’ll see the muscle definition coming through without even having to do an ANY extra abdominal work.
