Question Hi. I'm a 23 year old male, 6'4'' and 243lbs, who used to be an athlete in high school, but over the course of my college career, I've put on nearly 100 pounds. For the past 5 months, I've been dieting and exercising, and have managed to lose 40 of those pounds, and have seen tremendous results, but one area that I can't seem to improve on is my chest. Over the course of gaining weight, I've developed, well, breasts. Nothing major, but I'd say they are around a high A-cup. I know over time, by burning off my body's excess fat reserves these 'breasts' will disappear, but are there any exercises I can do that will hasten their removal? Thanks
Answer Bob,
Congrats on the loss. I wonder if you could tell me details of your diet and exercise program? How many days a week do you lift and do cardio and what do you eat and when and how much? Make sense? Before I give you advice I want to make sure I am telling you something you don't already know.
thanks, Karen
