my stomch sticks out up high. I was wondering if sleeping on my stomach could build muscle so that it is firm but sticks out?

does anyone know?

    Seriously? No, sleeping on your stomach won't add muscle

    No. How you sleep does not impact where you store fat. Sleeping does not build muscle.

    That's why I sleep with a 25lb plate on my back...to intensify my sleeping workouts.

    I'm not saying it might give six pak abs. I'm saying would it train your muscles to stick out, (in a bad way) like how they tell you to hold your muscles in to train them.

    I was told by me Pe teacher that you have to be careful to exhale when you do the up of a sit up because if you are breathing in then it will train the muscles wrong.

    hey... these forums are to bounce ideas off each other and find out info we may not know.. NOT TO SLAM.

    Acting like an A-hole does not make you look cool to others...It makes you look like an A HOLE. PERIOD.

    Sorry, it's the gravity boots. I sleep upside down to build leg strength and sometimes the excess blood messes with my head.

    Brilliant. I've got a weighted vest that's 75-100lbs (I forget), it's perfect for this! I'm going to be ripped in no time.

    Sleeping does not build muscle.
    Oh well, back to the drawing board on my hypertrophy plan.

    Somehow, I can see someone actually trying this and smothering to death in the night...
