If you’re looking to finally get rid of your Man Boobs, it’s essential you understand which strategies work and which ones don’t. Otherwise, you’ll just be spinning your wheels trying out tactics that will get you nowhere.
This article will reveal the top 5 myths about losing Man Boobs that may already be misleading your attempts at this goal. Understanding these 5 misconceptions will speed your progress and help you avoid common pitfalls while on your road to success. Once you know what NOT to do, I’ll show you the exact path to follow in order to lose your Man Boobs as FAST as possible.
Here are the top 5 myths…
1. Exercising Your Chest Alone Will Make Them Go Away
WRONG!
If in fact your Gynecomastia is simply caused by excess fat (called Pseudo Gynecomastia), don't try addressing it by doing only chest workouts. Fat will burn uniformly off all parts of your body when you exercise aerobically. You are actually better off doing cardio exercises like walking, jogging and even overall body resistance training with weights. Yes, lifting weights and targeting your chest is good, but without the cardio aspect, you won't see much difference.
YIKES!
It's disturbing how many people will start taking steroids as an attempt to reduce their man boobs. Steroids actually cause Gynecomastia so you'd only be exacerbating the problem. Why do steroids cause man boobs? As you go off the drug, your testosterone levels fluctuate and your estrogen temporarily increases causing the chest fat to develop. Hormonally induced Man Boobs are the most stubborn to lose so stay away from steroids.
3. Man Boobs Develop ONLY as a Result of Genetics
NOT QUITE!
If your parents are overweight, yes, there is a higher chance you may develop Pseudo Gynecomastia (Man Boobs from having excess body fat). However, your genetics do not limit your ability to develop Gynecomastia either. You may be skinny as a rail and have tight sculpted pecs but habits like chronic marijuana smoking, poor diet and experimenting with steroids can easily bring on Man Boobs. No one is exempt. That's why it's so important to educate yourself on this topic.
4. Take Some Magical Hormone Pills and They'll Go Away
NOPE!
All over the net, you'll find hormonal supplements that promise to get rid of your Man Boobs. Yes, some reputable hormonal treatments will help with Gynecomastia. However, you'll only benefit through combined effort with an ongoing system of specific diet and exercise.
5. Gynecomastia Can Only Be Cured With Surgery
FALSE!
There are so many variations of Gynecomastia that this myth is my biggest pet peeve.
There is Pseudo Gynecomastia (the MOST common condition) which is simply caused by excess fat in the body. There are Gynecomastia conditions that are temporary due to hormonal fluctuations. This is common in adolescents during puberty.
There are cases of Gynecomastia caused by excess fluid secretions in the breast that often result in nipple excretions. Man Boobs may be caused by glandular disorders and sometimes growths as well.
My point is this, of all these variations, 90% of them can be cured through a combination of diet, exercise, hormonal therapy and specific nutritional supplements.
The next step for you is to see your doctor and have your condition classified so you know how to specifically carry on with your treatment.
Until that time, start getting rid of your Man Boobs naturally and within weeks using an EXACT step by step program.
