Hi everyone. I have a question about my breasts I hope you can help me with.

In middle school my breasts were DD, but as I went through highschool and got into sports I lost weight and they have gone done to right between C and D (its impossible to find a bra that fits).
But having gone through all these changes in my life I feel like it has made my breasts a bit saggier than I'd like. They arent that bad, not flat or anything. But I am working out again and I would like to know if anyone knows any work outs I could do to lift my breasts and make them firmer. Is this possible?

I seen on tv 1 time where you could lift your hands over your head, straight up in the air, w/ your hands together & like stretch you hands & arms up ward towards the sky. Then relax & keep repeating......

I don't kno if it will help, but it would be worth a try...
I have big boobs too, so I kno how you feel! (lol)

Hope I was some help!!!!! Good Luck!!!!

I'm not sure how much of a lift you are looking for. Extreme lift unfortunately can't really happen by exercise alone. However, if you are looking for a slight lift, doing push ups and lifting small weights work out your chest muscles and help to build a bit more muscle, thus lifting your breasts slightly so they sag less. Working on posture will help too if you make sure to sit up straight. Of course, there is always the savior of a good bra!

I agree with Penquins. Push ups will firm the muscle under the breast and give some lift. Go to a boutique that specializes in fitting bras. Wearing a bra that fits properly can make all the difference in the world and will help to prevent gravity from taking over. Unfortunately age, genetics and having children do not play in our favor in this department.

Have you tried swimming? By swimming not only it helps to firm the muscles around the chest area it is also good for cardio (heart). Good luck hope that helps. Hart74

I don't have the money for a bra like that Sad but as soon as i do im gunna get one.

OMG!!! yes, i AM a swimmer. I have been a swimmer since freshman year of highschool and was on the varsity team!!! So yes, i swim, not as much anymore but I always have and always will!

I guess you could say they have a little more than normal sag for large breasts, but arent extremely saggy. But I figured I'm 19 and if I start now it will help in the long run.

I think anything that works on your pecs... it won't actually change the shape of your breasts but strengthen the muscles underneath them, which might help. And just make sure you wear a bra regularly, (which I'm sure you do) because girls who go without bras often get hit by gravity much harder Smile

Yup do excercise to make your body fit and perfect. Swimming is a best way to slim your legs and chest.
