Exercise for bigger breasts

THE popularity of the breast augmentation industry has increased in recent times as more women aspire to have fuller, perkier breasts. And while some don’t mind spending big bucks to go under the knife, other women would much prefer going about it the natural way.

If you’re one of those women, personal trainer and fitness instructor at Hard End Fitness Factory on Ardenne Road, Gisel Harrow, has the fitness remedy that will help you to naturally enhance your breast size.

“Exercising, eating the right foods, and a few changes in your lifestyle may get you the desired results. Choosing a regimen with targeted exercises and remaining committed to the task will help you to enhance your breasts, making them look fuller and plumper,” Harrow said.

Below, she shares a list of exercises that you should increase in your regular exercise regimen that will help to enhance breast size and make them perkier.

Push ups

“Push ups help in strengthening the pectoral muscles that are located below the breasts and also tones the arms,” Harrow said. To achieve this exercise, get into the high plank position and firmly place your hands on the ground, directly under the shoulders. Keeping your back straight, bring your body towards the ground, and make sure that your stomach doesn’t touch the floor; then push back up. If you find this exercise too challenging, then you may keep your knees on the floor. Do three sets of 12 repetitions and increase as you get stronger.

Wall ups

Similar to push ups, Harrow said that wall ups are especially for women who find push ups hard and tiring. To complete this exercise you first stand in front of a wall and lift your arms to shoulder level. Now firmly place your palms on the wall and push off the wall until your arms are in an outstretched position with elbows bent, then go back to the original position. Do three sets of 12 to 15 repetitions.

Dumbbell chest press

This exercise firms up breast tissue and strengthens pectoral muscles. To execute, lie on a bench with a dumbbell in each hand. Your feet should be firmly placed on the floor. Then push the dumbbells up in a way that your arms are directly over the shoulders and palms up. Bring the dumbbells back to the shoulder level and repeat. Do three to four sets of 12 repetitions.

Tricep push up

This form of push up is designed in a way that targets the triceps specifically, making it more effective in this area than the regular version. It also targets the lower breast muscles, making them increase in size as well as much stronger and firmer. To complete this exercise you first hold your torso up at arms’ length, then lower yourself until your chest is close to the floor as you inhale. Then, using your triceps, press your upper body back up to the starting position and squeeze your chest. Make sure to breathe as you complete this step. Do this for three sets of 12 repetitions.

Flat bench dumbbell press

This particular exercise is known for its focus on the pecs or chest muscles and the area between the shoulder socket and the middle of the chest. Consistently focusing this area will enhance the size and fullness on the upper outside of the breast. To execute, lie down on a flat bench with a dumbbell in each hand resting on top of your thighs with the palms of your hands facing each other. Then powerfully press the dumbbells toward the ceiling by flexing your pecs and extending your elbows. Stop when the inner plates of the weights are an inch or so away from each other. Then slowly return to the start and repeat. Do three sets of 12 repetitions and remember to always breathe in on the descent and breathe out forcefully on the ascent of each repetition

An important point to remember is that the changes will not be seen overnight because naturally increasing breast size takes work; therefore you need to be disciplined and persevere. An added benefit of these exercises will also mean a better toned body.
