6 months to look good in a tux.

[theunflushables]

My best friend is getting married in mid May. I'm standing up as his best man and want to look damn good rockin a tux. Right now I'm soft and pudgy but not hugely overweight (5'10 190lbs) I'm planning on hitting the gym at the beginning of the new year. Any specific workouts I should be doing and foods I should be avoiding (already cut the fast food out)? I'm not expecting to be ripped with six pack abs by then, just don't want to be a fat dude in a tux.

Given that you say you aren't that overweight, you could probably expect to achieve a six-pack in the alotted time. It depends on how much muscle you've got under there. What is your waist size? And I'm not talking about your jeans or whatever, I mean measured with a tape.

Do it for yourself, not just the wedding. However, 6 months is enough time. You can be in great shape if you dedicate a lot of time towards it.

6 months won't get you much. I'd work on perfecting your posture if anything.

Six months is a lot of time. I would say start with the Stronglifts 5x5 program if you have access to a gym. If not, there's nothing wrong with interval running, push ups, pull ups, dips, and ab work.
