There are 3500 calories in a pound. The amount of sit ups would depend on your current weight and the degree of effort you put into the sit ups.
However, sit up don't really burn many calories are all. If you are looking to really burn calories look towards cardio workouts (swimming, brisk walking, TaeBo, kick boxing, jogging, jumping rope) as these (especially Taebo) will blast the calories.
burn 3500 calories to lose a pound. Make sure you are doing it safely. I do 2 sets of 100 curl ups a day. Thats all I can do at my point. I have a friend who can do 1000 over the course of a day. Start slow, dont over work yourself. hope this helps
3500 calories...too mush sit ups ..but probably 4 hours on the elliptical trainer..cardio burns more Cal's.
A pound of fat in the human body is about 3500 calories.
Sit ups don't burn many calories, they tone and strengthen the muscle.
For any exercise, the number of calories burned depends on the intensity, and how much you weigh (a 250 lb person will burn more calories jogging for 60 minutes than a 100 lb person would). Just to give you a rough idea, a 145 lb person running at 5.2 mph for 30 minutes burns roughly 300 calories.
