sit ups only build muscle and will make your belly look bigger because there is gona be more muscle UNDERNEATH the layer of fat - they do not burn any fat.
the only fat burning exercise is cardio (running, jogging, hiking, swimming, cycling etc) do them 4-6 times a week for 30-50min (ideally 45min because the first 20-30min body burns carbs and only then starts burning fat).
you also have to eat enough so your body would let fat go.

depends on if you want to lose weight or just tone up. if you want to lose weight then you will need to do cardio workouts which is either running, swimming, hikin, biking, etc. and then after you lose the weight then sit ups or crunches are the way to go!

cardio. If you do situps without burning off the fat, you'll just make the fat more prominent.
