Sit up's work your abdominal muscles, not your chest muscles. It also takes longer than one week to see results. I would suggest taking a look at your diet, and cutting back on soda and fried foods, and getting in some weight lifting 3-4 times a week and cardio the same. Hope this helps!

Unwanted deposits of fat cannot be spot reduced - you have to burn fat, which will come from all over your body, through diet and exercise in order to get rid of your "man boobs."
