Hey, what's up, guys?
Sean Nalewanyj here, www.SeanNal.com.
Just got back from the gym.
Wanted to make a quick video here talking about the topic of man boobs and how to get
rid of them.
Now, it is a pretty silly term but it is a very common term as well, and it is a very
common question that I get asked by guys out there so I did want to make a video addressing
it.
So, how do you get rid of man boobs?
The first thing to take into account is the fact that man boobs doesn't have one single
individual cause.
It can actually be caused by two different things or a combination of both.
It's either going to be an issue of excess chest fat, which is very simple and pretty
straightforward to fix.
And the second one, that's a little bit more complicated, is gynecomastia or gyno for short.
So the first step here is that you need to identify what the specific issue is that you're
actually dealing with.
So how do you go about doing that?
First off if it's gyno, basically this is caused by an actual increase in the breast
tissue itself which is a result of hormonal imbalances and it usually happens at two main
periods in life, that's either going to be during puberty or later on when testosterone
levels begin to decline, sort of around the 40-plus age range.
Now, if you have gyno it's going to be a little bit more obvious.
The man boobs, whatever you want to call them, it's going to be more focused around the nipple
area and you're going to kind of, if you feel around in there you'll sort of notice kind
of a hard mass that's located underneath there and it's going to be also a little more puffy
or sort of in the nipple area, it's going to be a little bit more obvious.
Whereas if you're dealing with excess chest fat it's basically just going to be like any
excess fat on any other area of your body and it'll be distributed around the entire
chest area, not necessarily just around the nipple area.
So if it's just basic excess chest fat there's not going to be any hard mass it'll just be
again basic flab, essentially, that is covering the whole test area.
So, how do you go about dealing with either issue?
Well, first off if you have a legitimate case of gyno, unfortunately that's something that
you have to discuss with your doctor.
Because if it is actual gyno that you have just basic diet and exercise probably is not
going to get rid of it and it is going to require surgical intervention to truly eliminate
it.
So if you have an obvious case of gyno where you're not significantly overweight, you're
not carrying a lot of other fat around your chest, then I would encourage you to probably
just go talk to your doctor first and foremost.
If you're dealing with excess chest fat on the other hand, there's really nothing complicated
about it at all.
And this is really just a simple issue of lowering your overall body fat percentage
as a whole.
As I've talked about many times before and as you've probably heard elsewhere you can't
actually spot reduce fat from specific areas of your body.
So if you have man boobs and excess chest fat there, going into the gym and doing bench
presses and flies and push-ups and exercises like that, that is going to build the Pec
muscle underneath but it's not really going to do anything to specifically hone in on
the fat that's covering your chest.
The only way to get rid of excess chest fat or excess fat from any other area of your
body in general is just through a basic fat loss program.
Now, I'm not going to go into all the details about how a fat loss program should be structured
in this video.
I've got many other videos talking about that.
Again, it's just a basic issue of keeping yourself in a calorie deficit over time through
proper nutrition, weight training, cardio, a combination of all three, and again, just
focusing on lowering your overall body fat percentage.
As you lower your overall body fat percentage that excess chest fat and those man boobs
will gradually disappear.
Now, on the other hand if you're not actually quite sure what it is that you're dealing
with, if you do have excess chest fat and you might also be dealing with gyno you're
not quite sure, then my recommendation is to start off with a fat loss program first.
Focus on lowering your overall body fat percentage and then once you've leaned down significantly,
then you can reassess and see what to do from there.
So if you do get rid of that excess chest fat but you find that there is gyno going
on there as well and it is to a significant degree, then you can go see your doctor.
But if it is a combination of both and you're not quite sure start with a fat loss program
first before making any other decisions.
So, thanks for watching this video, guys.
