I do 100 pushups a night, 150 situps, I hike, and am involved in two different styles of martial arts. I'm actually in really good shape! It's maddening! Ah well.

    OK- done hijacking.
    Crunch's my man the full situps work the upper body more than the gut.

    just curl up your shoulders off the floor and back.

    You can do all the crunches in the world, but if you aren't getting rid of the body fat, you just have a great six pack under a layer of fat. It is not possible to target fat loss at a specific part of the body. Tightening up the muscles can make it appear to do so, but the fat loss comes from body metabolism burning it, nothing else.

    Just to relate this to kilt wearing, less gut will make it a lot easier to wear a kilt well.
