What are some exercises that will reduce gynecomastia?

Answer by  martin (522)

Gynecomastia is excessive growth of fatty breast tissue in males. Exercise only affects muscle tissue, so there are no exercises that will reduce gynecomastia. In fact, exercise might increase the appearance of gynecomastia by making the chest muscles larger and firmer, which will make the breast tissue look bigger.

There are no such exercises that reduce gynecomastia. That is a side effect from too much estrogen due to a testosterone supplement. Stop the supplement and they should shrink down.

This is tricky. If your gynecomastia is simply all fat, then exercise can reduce it. However, if your gynecomastia is glandular tissue (breast tissue), that will not go away with exercise. For all fat, bench pressing, dumbbell pressing, and wide pushups will build chest muscles. A lean diet is needed to actually get rid of fat along with cardio.
