«Doing sit-ups burns belly fat»

False

What the evidence says

Spot reduction does not work. Training a muscle does not preferentially burn the fat sitting on top of it. Fat is lost globally through a calorie deficit, and the order in which it disappears is mostly down to your genetics.

How settled this is

Unilateral training studies confirm there is no spot reduction.
