Breast Reduction Exercises!

Myth Busting Information Below

Here's the 411 on breast reduction exercises. Our breasts are basically composed of fat tissue, fibrous connective tissues, and a couple dozen milk glands. Pretty exciting stuff, eh?

Here's the good news: Since our breasts are made up of fat, it is true you can reduce your breast size by exercising and correct dieting! (and the crowd goes wild)

I've included my personal natural breast reduction experience at the bottom of this page as proof that you can reduce your breast size by losing weight - So keep reading!

However, (a hush falls over the crowd)

Breast Reduction Exercises Are a Myth!

Let me repeat myself. There are no such things specific exercises that will reduce breast size.

Stay with me and I'll explain.

In a perfect world, we could point to a trouble area on our body and say, "I will now do a crunch and lose the fat here" or "I just did 5 leg lifts and poof my saddle bags disappeared". But we all know that's just not true. Our bodies are not designed that way. breast reduction exerciser

You can build muscle in a specific spot, but you can't lose fat in a specific spot. Your body gets to decide where, when, and how fast, the fat comes off.

It's not fair, but that's the way it is.

I really wish I could say, "Do these specific breast reduction exercises and in two weeks you will be 3 cups smaller!" But that would be a lie and you should be very wary of anyone who says otherwise.

It's important to incorporate certain weight resistant exercises into your workout routine to help to strength back, chest and shoulder muscles. This is important because carrying our 'heavy burdens' can take a toll on our bodies and building muscles can help relieve some of the health problems caused by large breasts. (I wrote a page about those problems Here)

I asked my sweet husband, who also happens to be an athletic trainer and personal trainer, to compile a list of exercises that would be most beneficial for large breasted women. Keep in mind that these are not breast reduction exercises, but they will strengthen your back, core, and chest muscles - Things that are very important for large busted women to do.

I have complied a list of exercises that I think every big busted babe should be doing to strengthen her back, shoulder and core muscles. Read what exercises I recommend here

Here's the bottom line

If you're serious about giving your boobies an 'extreme makeover', here's the best advice I have...

decrease your overall body fat percentage through exercise and diet (read my personal story below for more info)
begin resistance training to build and tone the chest muscles (for some great ideas on specific chest exercises keep reading)
Cardio and Weight training can help transform your body
Most women will lose inches in their chest when they lose weight
If you're going to start exercising, I know of some great sports bras for well endowed ladies, read what I wrote about big bust sports bras here.
Be informed about the health problems associated with having large breasts .

Personal Story: I will say that exercise and weight loss worked to reduce my breast size.

After losing 30 pounds, my bra size decreased from a 38F to a 36D. Of course since then, I've gotten pregnant and had a baby so I'm back to the starting line again. *sigh*

If you're really serious about a breast reduction without surgery, it is my firm belief that exercise and weight loss is the way to do it.

2009 Update: I've been working really hard to get the baby fat off and once again I've gone from a 38F to a 36D. In order to do this I had to lose 15 pounds and decrease my body fat by 10%.

See the difference a good sports bra can make

One woman liked the Enell Sports Bra so much that she made a youtube video in it's honor.

It shows her running in a regular sports bra and an Enell Sports Bra . The difference is stunning and the Chariot of Fire soundtrack made me smile.

Thank you Enell Sports Bra Lady!
