Best routines/workouts to help lose the man boobs?

BaristaX

so long story short, I dropped a good few pounds, noticed my stomach getting smaller/flatter, but the chest area still needs some trimming to do, so my question is, what can I do to help focus on losing the man boobies and get a flatter chest?

as of now, I do lots of push ups, and some yoga stretches that work the upper body, but it seems no matter what I do, my lovely manly lumps just don't feel like going away.

Thanks in advance.

You can't spot reduce.

Can't spot reduce but you can gain/firm muscle in those areas to better the appearance. I've noticed my pecs have gotten rock hard doing a few simple exercises on the machine at the gym. Pectoral fly's really work the area good, I'd also imagine bench pressing and lat pulls work them. Considering that's the extent of my upper body lifting, I'm pretty happy with where it's gotten me so far

The fat will come off from wherever your genetics decide to lose it, but you can definitely firm up your pecs, which might help improve the appearance. You'll want to do more than body-weight push-ups for that, though; either get into a gym and start working toward a heavy bench press (a weight that's challenging to complete a set of 5 or so, doing 3 to 5 sets a couple days per week). You'll probably want to have a partner spotting you when the weight starts to get heavy, just in case.

I have had great results doing P90X and of course keeping a strict diet. Good luck!
