So you how come to this page becuase you either are curious what man boobs are or you might be in the situation where you posses your own pair. I am sure that you might have some questions and probably don't feel like asking your buddy who might ridicule you for doing so. So if you are curious of causes and the cures then keep reading because we are going to cover these topics.

Man boobs have a scientific name, it is called gynecomastia, which basically means "women-like breasts". It's a greek word so you can know that this is not a new condition. This has been around for thousands of years.

So what are causing your man boobs? Well you need to ask yourself some serious questions. Are you overweight? This is the first question. If your answer is yes then to fix this problem you will need a workout regiment that will require some aerobic discipline as well as some weightlifting. You will need to get into some tye of aerobic activities that require movement of the arms. Ellipical machines, swimming and jogging. I would start with the jogging it is free and all you have to do is walk outside. Then with your weightlifting it is best to focus on upperbody workouts. Decline and regular wide grip bench presses. Decline push-ups. Keep the grip and hand width spread wide. Reason is you want to focus on the outer pectorial muscle strands. Think of it as a bungie cord, while the bungie cord is laying flat you can move it in the direction of gravity and it will droop. But if you keep the bungie cord tight it tends to snap back into place when pressure "gravity" is applied.

Now you will also need to watch your diet. There is a myriad of foods that have estrogen in them, some more than others. The reason that you will need to watch your estrogen intake is because this is what causes you to have man boobs if it is not from being overweight. This usually happens in adolescence when chemicals in your body are racing around. You may start out with more estrogen than testosterone and this will give you the appearance of man boobs. This can also happen in older men as their testosterone levels drop off while they are still consuming foods with high levels of estrogen.

Foods that have high levels of estrogen are all types of beans, especially soy. Other foods are certain types of fruit. There are a number of different products that come with recipe books that focus on which foods to focus on and which to not eat at all when trying to reduce man boobs.

This is a good start if you are trying to reduce your man boobs, however there are some very cheap and informative products out there that really work. But when you go to look for products let me suggest stay away from the pills. These pills are not approved by the FDA and nobody really knows about the side effects. Not only that this is the easy way out. If you really want to lose your man boobs it is not going to be easy. But if you get the right information about how to workout correctly and which diets to focus on then owning the correct product will help to drastically decrease the time it takes for you to lose your man boobs.

Good Luck on your journey
