I want to get rid of my jubblies! I'm lean, but for whatever reason my baby fat decided to stick around my chest area, and the results are...akward...

Can anyone recommend me some excersises that focus in on that area?

edit: Good god...go to Google Image Search, type in "breasts", and three rows down you will be subject to the most appauling pair ever....

edit 2: I also butchered the word exercise pretty badly in the topic. Whoops.

You will need to widen your chest through strengh training. Losing weight will help but the best thing is to increase the muscle in your upper chest and deltoids.

Go see a doctor, you may suffer from gynecomastia. No kind of exercise will get rid of the "fat", in fact, they may get even bigger. :p

Ignore these guys. You don't get to choose what fat your body burns. You can target muscle groups, but you cannot force your body to get rid of an arbitrary fat repository.

Just exercise like you want to lose weight. Just because the extra weight isn't where most people keep it, doesn't mean it's not there.

I copped that shit about a year ago as a side effect from a medication I was taking. Just got it surgically removed about a month ago so no more bitchies for me :)

If it is gynecomastia then yes, building the muscle underneath will just push out the gland and make matters worse. If it's just fat then try and get rid of it, best way probably being a combination of cardio and exercises targeting the chest such as push ups, dips or bench press. If you suspect there is some glad under there then you better go see a doctor about it.
 
why is it that gaming-age forums the answer central for everything?!?!? i mean even if the answers are wrong which sometimes they are... it just seems there is an answer for everything on these forums

Yea, just try the diet and chest exercises for now, if you don't see a reduction in the erea of fat built up it could be gynecomastia (like mentioned above), which occurs when either too much testosterone is converted to estrogen, and occurs in overweight people, but only becomes noticeable in overwieght people when they lose the weight, but the tits remain.

Which leaves only surgery, like mentioned above.

Well, if it were a serious disease, then we would usually suggest he visit a doctor.

Instead, it's just a guy with big tits

Simply burning fat will not be enough, you'll just have smaller boobies. You want to eliminate the boobies, like Jada Pinkett.

She's virtually eliminated her boobs by building her frontal [deltiods], look! A workout building muscle in the deltoids and upper chest will expand and lift your chest, like say a chipendale's. The exact workout excape me, but be sure to get them done.

Damnit, I did a search for chest exercises for fun and came across this thread.

Been trying to work on my chest past few weeks to try and get rid of the flabbiness, but now you guys are scaring me with that condition.

I'm only 17, what's the likeliness of me being affected? I'd better not be. :lol

Though all these chest exercises do seem to be making a difference.

Thing is, I'm not even really fat. Could do with losing a bit of weight, but my BMI is like 20 or something. Used to be pretty chubby about 4-5 years ago mind you,

Topic is old but I'll reply anyway:


I'm taking some sort of medication that delays bone fusion (since I'm short) and my parents want to give me a few years to be able to grow another inch or two. And apparently the pill is also used for breast reduction on females (it's mostly comprised of estrogen...I don't know how that works exactly but yeah)
 
"Diet and Exercise".

Really, it's the best way to reduce man breasts - unless, of course, it's a real medical condition other than just being a little jiggly up there.

If you don't have access to a gym, doing wide-grip push-ups and pull-ups (like someone else already mentioned) are great ways to build muscle up there. This will widen your chest and help turn your "man-boobs" into a hot, chisled (sp?) chest.

If you have access to a gym, there are many other workouts that help, as well. Dips, various benches, and a few exercises with some resistance cables really help. Oh, and the butterfly machine is great as well.

It's true that you can't really "spot" reduce where your fat is going to burn, but I do find I'm much more tone in areas that I do strength training (biceps, chest, calves) than in areas I oftentimes neglect (obligques, lower back, and my flabby ass).

Uhh, any medication meant for reducing breast size probably won't have estrogen in it. I'd imagine it would decrease estrogen, though.

Hmm. I guess exercise regularly - make sure to get some cardio in there, and reduce the percentage of fat and sugar you injest but don't diet - eat enough calories to maintain your ideal weight and reduce the percentage of calories you get from fat - otherwise starving yourself will cause your body to store fat.

Yeah, it didn't sound right when I said it. It does decrease the estrogen. Estrogen also increases the rate of bone fusion hence why I'm taking it.
