    The only cure is to lose bodyfat.

    Adding muscle mass will help the appearance, and weight lifting in general will improve your physique, so in that regard it's probably a good idea as well.

    :::im lazy i didn't read the article:::
    BUT... i've heard some ppl say stretching helps with lower abs too, the dreaded "pooch" something about having tight hip flexors pull your hip muscles in and yadda yadda, maybe that is where the idea comes from. ???...

    i'm sure there is some science of some form behind the original idea, but for the majority of the man boob & pooch toting crowds alike, i'd say loose the fat...

    "Man Boobs" are actually a condition called Gynecomastia. Generally speaking, results depend on the severity of the condition. Some guys can put on weight without getting significant "man boobs" while other guys can be thin and fit but still display signs of them.

    Weight loos and exercise can help, but if the problem is also glandular, nothing aside from surgery will never truly eliminate them...
