Testosterone Therapy For Chest Fat

Q: I've been lifting weights for a year now, and it seems impossible to get rid of the fat under my chest, Is testosterone therapy an option?

A: Options like testosterone therapy are not really something I am qualified to discuss -- you should talk to your doctor about it. A year of weightlifting certainly should have given you some pretty good results. Have you been noticing some progress, at least? What is your weightlifting program like? Even more importantly, what is your diet like? What body fat percentage did you start at and what body fat percentage are you at now? How many pounds of weight have you lost in this past year and what is your height/weight now?

I would say that you should be around 12% body fat before you can start concluding that you need medical intervention to get rid of excessive chest fat. Virtually any man can get to 12-14% body fat if following a solid weighttraining program and a good diet and maybe some cardio on the side. For some people, it may take longer than a year, especially if they started off being quite overweight. Let me know more about yourself, your program, and your diet and we can probably find ways to improve on those before you try more dramatic options.
