As you will know if you have them, man boobs are the result of excessive breast tissue development and enlargement in men. And you'll also know that they can be a source of distress and anxiety.

So, if you have them, you'll want to know how to lose man boobs as soon as possible. The main concern of men with man boobs is that women will find them unattractive. Often ideas of this sort are somewhat misplaced, but that doesn't reduce their impact on the psyche of men that have them. The majority of sufferers would love to know how to lose man boobs if they could.

What causes them?

They can be caused by a number of factors which include medication, drug use, an excess of female hormones in the blood stream, tumors, genetic conditions, and kidney failure. The technical name for man boobs is gynecomastia and it is quite common during adolescence. Up to 70% of boys experience it at the time of puberty, but it is usually mild and short-lived. This is a period when the balance of the sex hormones can be disturbed due to growth of the testes. Once sexual development is complete, the testosterone in a man's body predominates over naturally-occurring estrogen and therefore man boobs are much less common in adulthood, occurring in less than 1% of men.

And what do they cause?

For most men, having man boobs (sometimes called moobs for short) leads to a loss of self confidence and low self esteem. And this is reflected not only in the dating game but in many other aspects of life as well. People with low self esteem tend to have lower-paid jobs, have poorer general health and have fewer friends than average. So getting rid of man boobs will almost certainly bring with it a number of beneficial spin-offs that will increase your physical and mental well-being markedly.

But how to lose man boobs? Surgery is one option but one that very few men opt for. Many consider that this sort of drastic intervention is unwarranted. Fat-busting drugs are sometimes suggested but, since man boobs tissue is not simply fat, they are unlikely to be successful.

The good news.

Well the good news is that there are now a number of exercise and dietary regimes that can really help you to lose your man boobs. They will require some effort on your part and possibly a rethink on aspects of your life such as attitudes to exercise and to what and how much you eat. But if the end goal is to lose your man boobs then it will be worth it.

It will almost certainly result in improvements in self-confidence and in self-image. In fact, many men who have undertaken these "how to lose man boobs" programs then continue with a fitness-based lifestyle to build their bodies and improve their musculature.

Losing their man boobs used to be just a dream from many men-- now with the advent of these properly researched systems that take account of your hormonal levels as well as diet and exercise, the dream has become reality at last.

Discover the secrets of how to lose your man boobs. With the right system you can replace them with firm, lean muscle. Regain your confidence and self-esteem. http://www.howtolosemanboobstoday.com
