What Are Man Boobs?
Man boobs are essentially flabby pectorals. If they get bad enough it is tagged as a medical condition called Gynecomastia (often mistakenly spelled gynaecomastia or gynaecomastia). Gynecomastia is a condition that many men suffer from and it is very embarrassing because it makes your chest look more feminine than masculine. The extra fat around the chest area can look saggy and is very unattractive. Men that suffer from man boobs often feel like they are alone in their condition, but it is actually very common.
Many men wish they could find a way to get rid of their man boobs, and many of them try. However, most of the men that try to get rid of their man boobs fail because, frankly, they are very difficult to get rid of unless you know the right methods and techniques.
How Do I Get Rid Of Them?
To put it very simply, the safest way to get rid of man boobs is diet and exercise. But this is a massive oversimplification. You can go on a diet, follow it religiously, lose weight, and still have man boobs. Man boobs will not disappear just because you stopped drinking soda, or have replaced fast food with salad. There are many kinds of fat, some even found in so-called healthy food, that target the chest area. You can be on a diet that works in general but is actually adding to your man boob problem.It is important to find a specific diet that targets man boobs because you have to avoid the foods that cause fat production in your chest, even if they are considered healthy overall.
Why Can't I Just Exercise A lot?
Exercise helps burn fat, but different exercises target different areas. Running and walking can help you get in shape and increase your endurance and conditioning, but they will not do much to get rid of man boobs. This is very frustrating because you can run every day, drop many pounds, and still have those annoying and embarrassing man boobs.Pushups and bench presses can help target the pectorals and burn fat in that area, but the progress will be slow going. You will be able to bench press more weight and do more pushups but will not see a difference in your man boobs for a long time. There are some exercises that target the pectorals and burn fat even better and these include using a butterfly machine, or doing iron presses.
What about Gynecomastia surgery?
Surgery is definetly an option but if you ask me it's a risky and expensive one... and should only be considered as a last resort.Basically the surgery works like this... if excess glandular tissue is the primary cause of your man boobs, then it will be cut out with a scalpel. If your man boobs are primarily due to excessive fatty tissue the surgeon will use liposuction to remove the exess fatty tissue. Other important things to note is that Gynecomastia surgery will result in scarring and is not covered by medical insurance. Gynecomastia surgery costs around $5000 dollars.

What Do I Recommend?
You cannot go on a general diet, do general exercise, and hope to get rid of stubborn man boobs. You need to do specific exercises that work quickly and avoid the foods that compound the problem. It takes a combination of elements and tactics to get rid of man boobs quickly. When the right methods and processes are used together, getting rid of man boobs is possible.
What specificaly worked for me was following the Chest Coach System by Cliff Manchaster.
