I just started lifting about 2 months ago and started finasteride about a month and a half ago. I've noticed my chest getting bigger but its still kind of flabby. I'm not fat by any means so I'm getting kind of worried I'm getting boobies. Is it normal for your chest to get bigger before it gets definition?

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm pretty new to the gym scene and learning things as I go along. :lost:

you are probably eating to much!

when i am training for mass, i always put on a lot of fat along with muscle mass... then i start to get cut up and lose the fat....

however, now i dont use this method, i eat enough but not too much so am gaining muscle but not the fat...

If your nipples are tender or sore then you should be worried... also feel for lump or hardness behind nipple...

I think it's normal. I don't pump the iron as much as I should but when I do I get similar results to you. It takes a long time to get proper definition. Just keep at it, it'll get better.

I believe I am at the turning point where the definition comes out but I need to step it up one more notch. I increased my protein intake this month hoping to put on a few pounds of muscle weight.

thanks guys. No tenderness or lumps so yay for that. I just spent a week upstate visiting my mom where I ate like a pig so I sure that didn't help especially driving everywhere and getting no exercise. Hopefully in about a month I'll see some better results.
