Research shows that the average chest circumference for men (trained men who maintain a baseline level of strength and fitness) is about 105.87 cm (41.68 inches). If your chest measures under 110 cm, there’s no need to be concerned, as most men have measurements between 100 and 110 cm. However, if your chest size exceeds 110 cm, it may be a sign of #gynecomastia, a medical condition that leads to enlarged male breasts.

A study found that obesity has different health effects in men and women. It revealed that men with obesity tend to have more abdominal fat and higher liver enzyme and triglyceride levels than women. Women were found to have higher total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, as well as increased inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein. The study showed that women were slightly older (average age 45), while men had greater waist circumference and higher blood pressure, liver enzyme levels, and triglycerides. Women, however, had higher total cholesterol, bad cholesterol, and inflammatory markers compared to men. Study: https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1123442 #obesity #weightgain
