Sit-ups and diet.

[Rampager]

Hey guys, well I am real new to boxing. Although over the past 18 or so months I have taken a real keen interest in it by watching a hell of a lot, studying styles, techniques and joining here for some tips. But I'm not saying I'm a pro or anything or even have a real idea on how to box but hopefully traning more will maybe see me go to a gym eventually and getting fitter/healthier.

But one of my question is with sit-ups... Is there any real problem in say, doing 70 sit-ups in the morning and 70 at night (amount isn't too important)? I mean, any difference between doing that then doing 3 sets of 50?

Also, I know that coke and soft drinks aren't too good for you but what about Diet coke? There is no sugar in it and only a few calories? Obviously water would be better but Diet Coke okay sometimes?

Cheers.

Not sure about the sets sorry dude,

But about the diet coke. Try your best to keep off it, I mean think about it, would you prefer the taste of 10 diet cokes, or 100 for that matter, or the taste of glory ?

Diet coke is just as bad. Any soft drink in diet form is still bad for you.
I laugh at people who have Diet coke becasue they say there watching there weight. If you want to be serious and do the right thing stay off it altogether.

If you find It had do what i did. I use to drink alot of coke. I cut it down to one can every 2 days then after a couple of weeks one can a week. Now I only ever have it if I go out to dinner for a special occasion and I allow myself one glass. Its hard to start with but in a few weeks you will find it easy. Just keep thinking about the goal you have for yourself and your work will pay off.

Think of it like this... Any amount of sit-ups isn't enough...You can do Sit-ups as much as you want. 2nd if not first strongest over/under legs. prally second.. so yea work them out till they are sore I say... works for me atleast.
