My Comments:
I am just blown away by the size of some of these bellies that I see displayed by some men. If I had such a gut…dude…I would definitely put that thing away.Â
On a serious tip, I wholeheartedly agree with the cardio push to cut the gut.  You might not get a six-pack with just cardio, your diet will have to figure in somewhere on that.
