Generally speaking, push-ups are a common form of exercise. Regularly performing push-ups can help burn calories and fat in the chest area, potentially aiding in chest slimming. However, due to individual differences, the effectiveness may vary. If the results from exercise are unsatisfactory, cosmetic medical procedures such as liposuction or breast reduction surgery can also be considered for chest slimming.

In general, push-ups are a common form of physical exercise. Consistently performing push-ups over time can help burn calories and fat in the chest area, potentially aiding in chest slimming. However, due to individual differences, the effectiveness may vary. In addition, combining dietary control by reducing intake of high-calorie foods such as cakes and fried chicken can also be beneficial.
