:werd: You do have a point there. I remember my whole thing was when i was working out that I was trying to burn fat since i had ingested soo much during my year of working at McDonalds.

If it is truly a "beer gut" in the sense that it is caused by too much consumption of toxins, then well, you're not going to get rid of it. Most likely it's just fat...but older people that did frequent (daily) drinking throughout their lives and have a guy like that (yet are reasonably not fat otherwise--arms, legs, no 5 chins and such), have DEAD LIVER GUT. The liver is the most regenitative organ of the body. So basically, when you drink too much alcohol over a long period of time you are killing off parts of your liver, and it's making more liver to keep you alive.

Ever have somebody with this say "oh I'm not fat, just punch my stomach" and of course it's rock hard--but it's not muscle, haha.

So If I want to GAIN weight AND Burn the gut's fat then I should ingest a lot of protein + workout routines?

You want to do leg-intensive workouts more than upper body to use energy. The legs have the most muscle mass.

Man, don't eat so much. Eating a lot throughout the day is what you want to do to GAIN...not lose. Eat healthier, eat less, lay off the beer, do lots of cardio. You want to burn more calories than you take in.

Eventually it will, yes. He's saying he likes to eat, and eats a lot...he needs to cut that back obviously.
