In order to get rid of that excess fat on your chest you are going to have to start watching what you eat, and start on a workout program that will help you to lose fat around the chest area. There are basically two sides that make up this workout, there is the weight lifting side and the cardio side. The weight lifting side is what is going to define and re tighten the muscles tissue, and the cardio is what is going to take away a lot of the fat.
To start off the workout do 2 sets of 30(or till fail whichever comes first) push-ups, to get the blood flowing to the chest, this exercise will not help as much to build bulk but more to help flatten and add strength to the pectoral muscles. Make sure that you do a set of push-ups with your feet on the ground and then with your feet elevated about 2-3 feet so that you hit both the upper and lower muscles of the pecs.
After completing the dumbbell chest press, we will move on to pec flyes, this exercise will stimulate the upper inner and lower inner portions of your chest muscles. This exercise should again be performed on a flat and incline bench to ensure the full chest is worked. Be careful that you go low enough just to feel a slight stretch in the chest muscles, any lower and you could pull muscles, or hurt your rotator cuff muscles.
Cardio should include jogging, swimming, or bicycling (something to get your heart rate up) this should be done 4-5 times a week 30-45 minutes a day. This is what is greatly going to help increase excess fat burn off, from your chest and body.
