Keeping the boobs

	2005/11/30, 02:30 PM Breasts are mostly fatty tissue. Lose fat...you lose some breast size. My wife lost 25 lbs when we first joined FT. She lost breast size. For me it was like getting some strange. I liked it!! -------------- Sometimes life is like herding cats. Charlie

	2005/12/02, 01:19 PM those exercises help pull up the breasts a lil bit...it won't make them larger or fuller...and when losing weight it all depends on where your body is likeliest to store the fat....it will also be likeliest to lose the fat from those places first....and although 67lb sounds like lot how is this relative to your overall weight? some people who need to lose a lot of weight, can loose a relatively large amount and keep their breasts because they 'only' lose 60 out of lets say 120lb they need to lose..... any pressing movement will work...bench press, dips, flyes, push ups,and variations of these exercises.... for example: bench press: 15*, 12, 12, 12 incline DB flyes: 15*, 12, 12, 12

"Workouts make your breasts bigger" is a huge urban legend that every teenage girl without breasts wants to believ. Sorry...but perkiness does make breasts look fuller.

ravon Posts: 19 Joined: 2005/12/09	2005/12/14, 12:08 AM excellent original question about breast tissue, because I came to this forum to ask exactly that same thing. I have always been well endowed up top, and now that i'm getting serious about my weight training & fitness I don't want to lose it. I understand that some of it will go, but want to maintain as much up there as possible. Right now i'm a DD, and if i go down to a D/C...that's okay. Are chest exercises the only hope?--i'm a beginner--any suggested workouts for these muscle groups?:surprised:
