I want hideous man breasts, what can I do to increase my chances of getting them?

you know I could probly hook you up with some estrogen if you'de like...

that and doing nothing would probly do the trick

bench press get a 45 lb. bar, and throw on some 50's and do 10 reps of 10 in a 1 hr. period everyday.
edit: not much you can do around the house, but I do recommend 250 pushups and 500 situps everyday. if you cant get it all at once, then do as many as you can, and build up.

Dang, you must be strong. That's a lot of sit ups.

Wow thanks you two! Those are great tips and I'll get right to losing the man boobs. I'll be sure to post pics after they are gone.

Get a Bowflex. My dad got one for me last Christmas. He started using it right away, He lost about 65 pounds, and he doesn't have man boobs anymore.

But you have the whole day to do them. I'm not in great shape and I could probably pull that off.

Wow how did I miss this?!

Please do not do what he says. I'm at a loss for words towards his post.

One question, he says to do shrugs with 2 15lb weights, I do them with 1 225lb bar infront of me, bring it half way up and go seven times from half way to all the way up, hold up for 10seconts, bring it all the way down, go down-half 7 times, hold, go up-down 7 times, hold. Am I doing somthing wrong?

And are you saying bench pressing is bad period, or just doing what he said is bad?

Doing shrugs in this manner is inefficient and dangerous for a few reasons:

Dangerous because it puts INTENSE pressure on your cervical spine. Inefficient because there are better ways to train these muscle groups.

By doing shrugs in the usual manner that 90% of people think, they are barely working the Traps (Trapezius) muscle group. You are working the Levator Scapulae, the muscles that give people that "no neck" look. The traps are actually along the spine, on either side, on your back. Superior to the Rhomboids. They are scapular retractors and stabelizers.


The most effective way to train the Levator Scapula (think of the name of the muscle, it hints at its function "scapular elevator") is to use two dumbells, hold them at your side, keep your neck and back straight and think about touching your shoulders to your ears. Do this slow and controlled for 10 reps or so, 2 or 3 sets. If you do it correct your Levator should be on fire.

If you want to train your Traps correctly, you should again use two dumbells or use the bench that allows you to lay on your chest, at an angle, which people usually use for working the Rear Deltoids. You could stand, holding the dumbells forward with your torso at a slant toward the ground. Crap let me get pictures this is hard to type.




Best pic I could find on short notice. Do NOT keep your back flat like that, angle your torso 45 degrees forward.

Also, seated rows on the cabel machine are good. Standing barbell rows are VERY good for working shoulder girdle muscles. Don't let your elbows go above your shoulders. This guys form is horrible.
