We all have parts of our body that we’d like to improve the most. For women, it’s usually their legs, butt or the back of their arms. For men, they’d most often like to get rid of stomach fat or make their biceps bigger.
But there’s one other common “problem area” on a man’s body that tends to bother (and embarrass) them the most. It’s something that guys have been asking me questions about for years.
I’m talking about chest fat… aka man boobs!
The following article will explain exactly what causes this to happen to so many men and (more importantly) how to lose chest fat and get rid of man boobs as fast as you possibly can.
What Causes Man to have fat pecks?
There’s 3 main reasons why a man’s chest looks more like women’s breasts rather than the manly, flat, lean, muscular pecs most men wish they had…
- High Body Fat Percentage:
When the human body gains fat, it stores that fat in a way that is predetermined by your genetics. For certain men, some of their excess body fat is stored as chest fat (blame your parents for that). Not to mention, no matter what kind of genetics a guy has, if you start gaining a lot of fat, your body just starts running out of places to put it and at some point some of it just has to end up on your chest. Just another reason to avoid getting fat in the first place, guys. - Gynecomastia:
This is actually the medical term for “man boobs,” and it’s VERY different than just having some chest fat. Gynecomastia is actually caused by breast tissue, not fatty tissue, as a result of your hormone levels (testosterone and estrogen) being a little out of whack. This is why gynecomastia most often shows up during puberty or older age, which is why guys typically develop their man boobs during their teens or when they are over the age of 50. Gynecomastia is also a common side effect of using steroids (because it screws with hormone levels) and certain diseases and medications. This condition is said to affect over 30% of men, and can be mild (“puffy nipples”) or extreme (full on female-like breasts). - Both:
Yup, sometimes a guy has some degree of gynecomastia (breast tissue) AND a higher body fat percentage (chest fat) that both combine to make this happen.
So guys, now you know what causes this embarrassing problem. Now you need to know how to lose chest fat and finally get rid of your man boobs once and for all.
