Exercises to Improve the Bust Size
- Pushups can help improve bust size.push ups image by Steve Lovegrove from Fotolia.com
Improving your bust size can make your breasts look bigger or fuller. While there are companies that sell pills that can supposedly enhance your breast size, you can achieve this goal through exercises. Exercises that focus on developing your pectoral muscles are recommended because the lean muscle developed under your chest will push up your breasts. - You can perform a fly exercise by lying on the floor and holding a dumbbell in each hand. While keeping your back straight and feet firmly on the ground, hold the dumbbells out and parallel to your chest as if you were going to give a giant hug. Inhale, than exhale as you slowly bring the dumbbells in to meet in front of your chest. Bend your elbows slightly to prevent your arms from locking. Pause for one second when the dumbbells meet, and then return to the starting position to complete one of 10 repetitions for a set. You can do a variation of this exercise by starting with your hands overhead before bringing them to the middle of your chest and then expanding your arms out.
- Pushups are a cheap way to work your way out of needing a push-up bra. A pushup allows your body to develop those pectoral muscles by putting as much weight and resistance on them and fighting gravity to relieve that resistance. Start off by putting your knees on the floor and aligning your arms directly under your shoulders. Extend your arms fully, keep your back straight and tuck in your tummy. Inhale as you lower your body by bending your elbows. When your chest 2 inches from the ground, exhale as you extend your arms again. That completes one of 10 pushups for a set. For an added challenge, try lifting one knee off the ground as you go down and bringing it back to the floor as you push up.
- The dumbbell zigzag involves an exercise ball and dumbbells. (An exercise ball is a large, inflated ball.) Hold one dumbbell in each hand and lie on your back on the exercise ball. Put your feet flat on the floor. When you think you've found your balance, extend your arms out as if you were doing a fly exercise. With a slight bend in your elbows, simultaneously bring the dumbbells over your chest and crisscross them 12 times before returning your arms to the open fly position. Rest for five seconds and then repeat. If you don't have an exercise ball, you can do this on a flat bench.
