How do I Get Rid of My Gut?

When I'm preparing for a contest, or getting lean, instead of resting after a completed set, I hop on the floor and do some crunches. I'll also do them on a bench or an ab machine, something convenient and nearby that will work on the abs while your primary muscle group can rest from the set. Another suggestion would be to do a 15-25 minute warm-up instead of 5-10 min to get more cardio in, burn more calories, etc. I'd also do 20 minutes on the bike or stair-stepper after your workout as well, a perfect time for some cardio when trying to get lean.

Also if you plan on working abs as well as other muscle groups that day, start with abs so they get hit when they're fresh. Remember that "speed" isn't always the best when doing crunches or sit-ups. Try to feel the muscles working and perform the exercise at a pace that gets the best muscle contractions.

Also don't limit yourself to just sit-ups, you can do cable-crunches, hanging leg raises, decline sit-ups, weighted sit-ups, side crunches, bicycle crunches, and use abdominal machines. Don't forget about the rest of the body, it's great to work the mid-section when trying to get rid of a gut, but work the whole body with a 4 or 5-day split, or whatever works for you based on your current program and daily schedule.
