you have man boobs this is a phrase no guy wants to hear used to describe the accumulation of fat tissue around the chest maybe you don't even have a medical condition like ghasa but you still have some stubborn fat preventing your pecs from looking defined with squared off edges rather than more of a soft pointy appearance well this video is going to show you exactly how to transform your chest in just a few weeks and you'll want to stick around for the last tip because it'll help you improve the appearance of your chest within just
a couple minutes so first realize that the vast majority of you do not have gynecomastia the medical condition but that doesn't mean that your hormones aren't working against you creating a barrier that makes it much harder to lose chest fat and much easier to store it that's why it's necessary to address hormones like testosterone and estrogen both of these play an important role in regulating body fat distribution if you have an imbalance where your estrogen levels are relatively higher and testosterone levels are lower it can contribute to the development of excess breast tissue in men
this hormonal shift can be caused by many different factors but outside of the rare medical conditions most men who have moderately elevated estrogen levels have a hormonal imbalance due to pore choices that are fully within their control for example excess body fat can create a vicious cycle of raising estrogen levels which makes it easier to store more body fat this is because adapost tissue or fat cells have the ability to produce and release hormones including estrogen and as many of you already know estrogen is predominantly a female sex hormone even though it is normal for
men to have small amounts of estrogen when you have too much you tend to store fat around areas that are more in line with female body fat distribution patterns like the breast area for example so if you have excess body fat reducing it is a must to break this vicious cycle and the only way to lose that chest fat is to burn fat from your whole body there's no way to Target the chest area specifically for fat burn but as you reduce your overall body fat and get leaner your body will draw the fat from
your chest and convert it into energy however your body would much rather use the energy you get from your diet instead of your fat cells so the only way to get your body to actually burn body fat and intern chest fat is to create an overall energy deficit this revolves almost entirely around your diet even though you can burn some additional calories from cardio it's very difficult and highly unsustainable to create a calorie deficit purely by increasing your activity levels without also cleaning up your diet for example one trip to a fast food restaurant where
you eat a burger fries and have a sugary drink can easily cost you 1,000 calories for you to burn off those th000 calories you would have to run at a moderate pace of around 6 m per hour for an hour and a half it's obviously much easier and much more impactful to Simply eat fewer calories than to burn those calories from exercise now if you start googling which diet works the best for fat loss or you look up YouTube videos on the topic you're going to quickly get lost you'll find the keto crowd the vegan
crowd the carnivore crowd the carb cyclers the if it fits your macro crowd and the list goes on and on proponents of all of these diet plans will tell you that their plan is the only one that's effective but the secret truth that almost everyone in the diet industry doesn't want you to know is that they all work that's right they can all be very effective what it really boils down to is your personal preferences for example if you're someone that really likes fatty foods like butter cheese and fatty cuts of meat and at the
same time you don't really care for carbs like bread pasta and rice well then the keto diet may be the ideal plan for you if if on the other hand you can't picture yourself sticking to a diet without carbs well then a carb cycling diet gives you the opportunity to reload on hundreds of grams of carbohydrates every couple days if you want a diet with total flexibility to even incorporate junk food like ice cream and you intend to track your calories each day then an If It Fits your Macros plan can be the best option
for you you would simply calculate your calories and macros with an online calculator and then ensure that you're hitting your protein Target every day without exceeding your carb and fat targets each day all of these plans work very well it just comes down to which one is going to be sustainable for you same thing with meal frequency all of these different plants can be broken up anywhere from one giant meal a day to five or six small meals a day as long as you hit your protein Target each day and you stay within your calorie
deficit range you're going to burn fat please don't get lost in a hunt for the mythical diet plan that works the best according to the science it doesn't exist many people have gotten so discouraged during this kind of a hunt for the perfect plan that they end up so stressed to the point that they just give up and binge everything in sight don't do that fill your diet with filling foods that you enjoy eating and obviously realize that it's healthier to consume the carbs and nutrients from sweet potatoes than the empty carbs from ice cream
so it's okay to reward yourself with snacks especially high protein snacks but if you also want to feel healthier the majority of the foods that you eat on a daily basis should come from sources that either grew directly from the ground or walked or swm swam along the ground now on top of your diet you're also going to want to exercise not so much for the purpose of burning fat but more so to add shape and definition to your chest muscles that'll emerge as you strip away that layer of body fat strength training is ideal
for exercise because it'll help you build muscle and it also helps men boost their testosterone while reducing estrogen so one of the best chest exercises that you should be doing to lift and add that squared off definition to your chest is bench press another great exercise that you should incorporate to develop up your chest is the dumbbell press while barbells will allow you to lift a greater overall load and gain more strength dumbbell presses create more horizontal adduction and can isolate each PEC and arm for even development both of these exercises can also be performed
on an incline with a 45° angle to develop more of the upper portion of your chest you can start with something like flat bench press and then after three heavy sets you can switch to incline dumbbell press or vice versa but either way these two exercises are going to be the best exercises that you should start your chest workouts with then after that you can incorporate other chest exercises like dips push-ups dumbbell flies pec deck flies cable presses and cable flies in total you want to try to get at least nine heavy sets each time
you train your chest you can get started with a simple rep range of 6 to 10 reps simply follow the rule of upping your weight each time you hit 10 reps and lower the weight if you can't complete six reps you should also of course have days where you train the other muscles in your body like your back your legs and your core because not only will it help you look more proportional and fit but it'll also prevent muscle loss and slow downs in your metabolism as you reduce your calories in total you should weight
train at least three times a week if you hate exercising or you only have 3 days a week to commit to lifting weights then you should do three full body sessions each week if you can commit to four days a week then you can alternate between upper body where you hit your chest shoulders triceps back and biceps and then Target your legs with abs at the end of your session on your lower body day and if you like exercising and want to do five or six days a week you can break down your routine further
by doing abs and arms on a separate day all of these workout splits can work well you just have to make sure that you're consistent and always trying to increase the amount of weight you can lift finally the last tip that'll help you improve the appearance of your chest instantly is related to your posture by pulling your shoulders back and pushing the lower part of your sternum forward you actually spread the surface area of your chest out this makes your pecs look Tighter and less baggy while also improving your overall body image and confidence you'll
