A member asked:
I know that a waist-heavy waist-to-hip ratio has increased risk but does a lot of fat on the upper body (chest primarily) have similar risk?

Get a 'Feel' For It: Sounds like that might be male gynecomastia (better known as 'man boobs').If so, it's a complicated issue. Part genetic(good luck with that!), part diet (in general losing weight), part exercise (calorie expenditure, especially interval training and resistance training)and avoiding a myriad of foods, products and activities that may alter your estrogen/testosterone ratio.You've just begun, laddy!
