And then once youve burned a lot of fat thats when you can start doing crunches to begin forming your abs!
good luck!
hope i helped!

chrissabelle37 answered Tuesday February 27 2007, 7:43 pm: lol, no you're not dumb. I actually just figured that out this year when I asked my friend the exact question =). Ok during sit ups you're laying down with your knees bent and you cross your arms. You then sit all the way up. With crunches on the other hand, you lay down and put your legs in the air. You then cross your legs while they are up in the air. Then, instead of sitting all the way up you only have to go about 8-11 inches off the ground. You then hold it for about 5 seconds and lay back down whereas a sit up you go down right away. Crunches are pretty much half-situps. I hope I helped to explain it a little better =).
400 sit ups a night is really good. If you're willing to do 400 sit ups a night I give you a whole lot of credit. Lol. Well, to answer you're question it really depends on other things such as your eating habbits. Exercise works great but you still have to eat right to help along a 6 pack. The average amount it would take to get some results is about 2 to 3 weeks. To get a 6 pack with just sit ups though it would take pretty long but you may feel some bumps after a few months. You have to do other things such as crunches which are what really make your stomach strong. If you stick with crunches the results will occur even faster. I really hope this helped! =)
