The video discusses exercises to help reduce chest fat. It begins with push-ups, including variations such as:
* Standard push-ups
* Push-ups with hands apart
* Arrow push-ups (with a 45° arm bend)
* Clapping push-ups
* Push-ups with slaps on the chest
* One-arm push-ups
Additionally, the video mentions other effective exercises for burning fat and toning the chest, including:
* Dumbbell extensions
* Incline bench press with dumbbells
* Incline bench press with a barbell
* Flying exercises with dumbbells
* Ball push against a wall
* Crucifix in the crossover machine

The video emphasizes the importance of combining these exercises with cardio workouts to accelerate fat loss and boost metabolism.
