Your gut didn't appear overnight and it's not going to go away any faster but it will go away. Just pick one of the FT programs and follow it along with a decent diet and you'll get there.

Diet and workout over a period of time will do it. There's no quick fix here. It's taken me almost 3 months to drop 14 lbs from 165 to 151. That's with hitting the gym 3 times a week as well as eating 6 mini meals a day to keep the metabolism up.

If there were an effective, easy and permanent quick weight loss plan then everyone would be thin and trim and in shape.

also......misconception is crunches build abbsm which they do......however if you don't loose the fat thats on top....by building muscle under the fat... pushes fat out more........you'll have a nice conditioned and strong "core" as for a 6 pack.....no
