Man Tit Exercises

I'm one of the men who have fat on my chest. It's embarassing and causes some social akwardness, at least for me. So, the first to this year, I started to diet and exercise. Here I am, 6 months later and 45 lbs lighter and have much smaller, less noticable the man tits.

WARNING: Always consult a physician before starting any exercise routine or diet. I am merely an informed individual and not a professional in any way.


Cardio

Cardio burns fat, always has, always will. The amount of fat burnt depends on your heart rate. At 60%-70% of your maximum heart rate, you are burning fat at a really good rate. To find a 'maximum heart rate calculator', simply google it.

Walking and jogging are two good cardio exercises. They allow you to ramp up & down the intensity at will. If you have knee problems, go slow and use a knee brace only when necessary. My left knee gave me problems for years but since I started jogging there are fewer problems.

Visualize the fat burning up during your cardio, especially when you get that runner's high. The same hormones in that high are telling the fat stores to burn.


Strength Training

On top of cardio, it's important to do at minimum certain chest exercises.
  • Incline chest press. This works the upper pec muscle. This will make the man tits look smaller in comparison.
  • Decline chest press. This works the lower pec muscle. This will give a nice muscular lower line to the man tit.
  • Shoulder press. The added muscle of the shoulder when combined with the upper pec muscle will make the man tit look even smaller.
  • Overall training. More muscle means more fat gets burned every day. Plus having nice arms/legs/butt is a good distraction from the man tit.
Diet

Make sure to drink plenty of water and eat lean proteins.

Here are a couple things to avoid:
  • Anything that makes you retain water, including salt.
  • Anything labeled as 'diet', these sometimes make you retain water.
  • Anything that has a lot of fat.

Always Make Cheating a Part of Your Diet

This will actually help when sticking to a diet. There is a catch: no cheating after lunch and a max of 4 times a week. If you cheat for dinner, those calories are way more likely to stick around, but if you cheat for lunch or breakfast you are likely to get some subconsciously motivation to burn those extra calories.

Don't Let it Get You Stressed

Stress causes your body to hold onto fat stores. It slows the release rate of one of the runner's high hormones, norepinephrine, which slows the fat burn rate.

Always remember that God made you exactly how you are supposed to be.
