The answer is quite simply – NO. Developing your pectorals(chest muscles) won’t make your breasts smaller. Many of you would have heard this tale countless number of times, but let me tell you now that this is yet another myth about women’s weight training/female bodybuilding that just does not seem to go away!
Yes, strength training has an overall toning effect, however – if you’re dieting and you lose a significant amount of body fat, THEN you will reduce breast size (but of course, this decrease will also be proportionate to the fat loss from your entire body). So if you lose weight and end up with smaller breasts.. its because thats how you truly were meant to look like.. and there’s nothing wrong with that. So blame the shrinkage on your diet/weightloss routine, don’t blame the exercise.
Muscle and fat are very different types of tissue and we cannot turn one into the other, and women’s breasts are mostly fatty tissue. Your breasts won’t actually get bigger, but what is actually happening when you perform the right chest exercises is that you would tone the muscle underneath the breast tissue, and this will cause your chest to ‘appear’ to be bigger. Therefore, it is impossible to actually increase breast size through weight training but what you’re able to do is to only create an ‘appearance’ of bigger breasts. Isn’t that good enough?
Truth is, if you go below 12% body fat (which you shouldnt be unless you’re a competing female bodybuilder, etc), your breast size WILL decrease.. so don’t be surprised when that happens. If it’s still bigger breasts you want.. then one solution for you is to either gain fat or get breast implants.

Pls HELP me.
I’m a 22 years old lady. but luckily or unluckily having flat breasts. I m too worried for this.Kindly suggest me some perrfect exercise at home along with preferred food that i must have as i m under weight too. 44kg with 5’4″ height.
even the smallest bra of cupA doesn’t fit me. i feel shameful for this.
Kindly Sir, help me. I will be grateful to you for it.
i am 5’6″ and i am a 34 ddd what the hell do i do im not a big girl just bigg chest
Generally I don’t learn article on blogs, but I would like to say that this write-up very compelled me to take a look at and do it! Your writing style has been amazed me. Thanks, quite great post.
Thanks for another informative blog. The place else could I get that kind of info written in such a perfect method? I’ve a venture that I am simply now operating on, and I’ve been on the look out for such info.
which exercises makes your boobs smaller. does walking and running help or does skipping or hula hooping help???
can someone give me the exercises???
GIRLS do not pay attention to this this is incorrect! If you are working out, doing body combat classes, boxing classes, press ups etc – you WILL lose your breasts – this is very bad misinformation as it all depends on what type of body you are, and women can and will in some cases develop muscle like a man, it has nothing do with testosterone as some old wives will tell you and on your body type – there are three!
Take a look at female sports competitors….very small breasts. I have had large breasts on a tall slim frame all my life – I started boxing classes and changed my work out routines (i used to just jog to keep my legs and bum small) and joined a gym. My breasts reduced drastically and now have muscle where my top boob used to be and I am trying desperately to get them back and waste the muscle. I put half a stone on in muscle just doing cardio at the gym and added a few cms, I have since quit the gym and almost back at normal weight and slim again.
Do a bit more research on body types and figure out which type you are and then decide which exercise is best. A good few miles walking a day will do you no harm :)
Glad to hear exercise doesn’t contribute to making breasts smaller. It’s true that when I eat a low-fat diet, my boobs shrink. When that happens I eat avocados and sometimes chips. That seems to plump them up again after 2 weeks. Those are the only two foods that make a big difference to me.
It’s appropriate time to make some plans for the longer term and it is time to be happy. I’ve learn this submit and if I could I desire to recommend you few fascinating issues or advice. Perhaps you can write next articles regarding this article. I want to read more issues approximately it!
i just ordered p90x and saw the results and most of the girls have really big chest, i all ready think mine are too big and i dont have much fat i can loose,i was just wondering if that happened to everyone who does it cause if it does i dont want to do it
im a 15 yr old girl n i weigh about 138 pounds! Ahhhh n ma boob size is a 34C hmmm kk sooo if i lose some weight,like about 8-9 kg,will ma boobs get smaller? Get 1 cup smaller? Hmm only cardio exercise makes ur boobs get smaller??
Yes, weight loss will most likely result in a size reduction. However, go easy – i wouldnt recommend a drastic diet or exercise routine if you’re new to exercising.
Hi I could really do with some help/advice.
Im 20 and a 30GG, I weigh about 9st8lbs and am 5″6. I went to see a doctor about a breast reduction today and he told me the NHS cant fund it anymore and suggested weight loss as the only real way to decrease them naturally. I agree that exercise would make a difference but I’m quite small already and I used to be underweight and still had a big chest and I dont want to go back to that. Just wondering if anyone has any advice based on my situation cause I’ve read alot about big women with big breasts managing to lose weight and go down cup sizes, but what does a small woman with big breasts do? Thanks
I have the same problem!!! I’m also, 20 and I weigh around 120lbs with a height of 5’2, and I wear 34DD. I have been trying to go down to 100lbs, just to reduce the size of my breasts. I even picked up Insanity, and started trying to do some of the exercises, not that I’d say I’ve been very committed…. I have noticed that I have been looking more muscular, but I wouldn’t say thinner… In fact, lately I feel like my breasts having gotten, much wider I’d say….
I hate it!!!
Ya’ll need to start doing some cardio exercises, such as doing 1-mile or 2-mile runs every other day. Cardio is what burns the fat. Toning exercises are obviously more for toning muscles. So add in some cardio in your workout and you’ll see your boobs start to shrink to that runner’s chest appearance in a matter of weeks.
I’m 5’8″, and I weighed 155 pounds a year ago. Since then, I’ve lost 30 pounds. My breasts went from DDs to Cs. No joke. I never realized how much my positive body image had to do with having big boobs. I don’t feel like there’s any reason for guys to check me out any more. It’s irrational for me to be so insecure about it, but I’m really preoccupied with my breasts all of a sudden.

Hi,
are there any exercises that doesn’t involve machines since I don’t have access to a gym? I’ve been doing pushups but have seen only the slightest results. (My arms are toning up though)
Could you give me some tips for that or refer me to an article/video? Thanks a lot!
Im 26 years of age and have size 32 boobs. but the size of my one boobs is bigger than second I want to make equal size of both boobs , by doing this will it effect my breast size?
.
Hi Shweta – results may vary for each person. But I don’t believe you should be taking this supplement if you’re looking to change the size of your breasts.
Im 16 years of age and have size 32G boobs. I’m a size 10, but the size of my boobs make me conscious about my body size. I want to lose weight, or at least tone my muscles, by doing this will it effect my breast size?
Any exercise is better than no exercise – be mindful of what you eat, watch the quantities of your food – and exercise. The rest will fall into place. You’re also still young!

I’m 5’2 and 120lbs. I want to tone (get rid of a little bulging belly) and GAIN WEIGHT. I know that in order for my muscles to show, I need to BURN FAT. I do NOT want to lose my breasts! Do I continue to eat what I normally eat and cut out fried foods and white rice…OR do I go all the way out and create a diet that includes a sufficient amount of protein and cuts out fat?
Is 15-20minutes of cardio before each work out ENOUGH?
These are simple questions yet every person (including trainers) I ask, answer it differently. I appreciate you taking the time to respond :)
I`m 5’3 , 124lb and have a 34C and D. I love running but I do NOT want to loose any weight in my chest. I want to be 115.
Hey im 19yrs old and about 5,4-5,5 and about 149pnds is there a way i can get my breast to not get small?
Hey, I’m 17, 5’0 and have a A36 or A38. I don’t want my boobs to get any smaller!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want to loose weight on my tummy and loose my love handles. I’m about 114 pounds. Will my boobs shrink that much? I know people are talking about how you can do excerise to increase them but I don’t want to!!! I want my soft A36/A38 breasts!!! If I loose about 5 pounds will they really shrink that much? Someone please tell me!!! I really need advice!
I starting working out on a regular basis (4 to 6 days a week) on April 29, 2010 and have loss 12 pounds so far. I have noticed that my bras feel a little big in the cup now, but not so big I need a smaller cup size. I really want to have smaller breasts without surgery. I’m a 34G now and would love to be a 34C or 34D. Help! What exercises are the best for reducing the breast size?
Julia
Question: You mentioned that losing a significant amount of overall body fat is what would contribute most to breast-size decreasing. I don’t have a large amount of body fat at all, and I’m mostly just aiming to get rid of that ever-present tummy pudge to actually show off my abs, and tone up overall, since I’m pretty healthy/fit otherwise. I’m fairly big-busted, and my chest probably contains the most fat on my body, moreso than my stomach. I’m specifically doing a lot just to focus burn on my abs/core, but can I expect to see a significant change in bust size, since that’s really the biggest fat “deposit”(so to speak) on my body?
Than you in advance!

Hi ladies, I appreciate all your comments and also your willingness to post your concerns on this page.
Based on the comments on this page, the majority of you ladies have trouble reducing the size of your breasts, and the rest of you, have trouble increasing bust size.
However, both issues can be resolved with weight training and exercise – aim for a weight gaining program for those who are underweight/wish to increase their bust size, and those who wish to reduce the size of their bust, would be able to see results if you were to follow a weightloss program.
Also, it is important to incorporate exercises that target the chest muscles effectively. For a list of some of these exercises:

Some of the above exercises can be easily done at the comfort of your own home without the use of any weights. Try that for a start. :)
All the best!

I m having big breasts and they have started to hang & they r not very firm.my size is 36g (u can understand) this size is not available in market (Pakistan).
from where i can buy it in pakistan
Breasts will definitely shrink a bit with weight loss. I’m 5’2 and 157 lbs. Not very proportionate, but I started working out every day since the beginning of January. My bf says I do look a slimmer, but my breasts have also shrunk a bit. I’m still a size 38D, but my breasts look flatter than before. I’ve done mostly cardio workouts and with great sweat comes great boob shrinkage, lol. I think I’ll start working out on my pecs since some of the posts here says that it tones the muscles under the breast and can prevent them from getting even smaller.
exercise won’t make your breasts smaller. but exercise sure can give u a toned body :D
Help! I want to reduce my breast size. I went on a dangerous diet a while ago and i lost one stone and a half, i’m 5 foot and now weigh 6 stone 8 pounds. My boobs hardly got smaller at all, how can i make them smaller??? losing weight didn’t work. I’m only thirteen and a 32 B! HELP!

I am 14. I weigh 125, and I am 5’4 1/2. Pretty much 5’5.
I want to go down to 115-110. I know I will lose my boobs, right? Oh by the way I am a 34B. I HATE my size. I want to be a FULL C. Really really bad.
I was thinking about loseing the weight and then GAINING it back in MUSCLE. Could that possibly increase my breast size? Or atleast gain it back to what it was?
i just wanna ask something…..so if you exercise 2 tone up n not losin alot of weight then ur boobs dont get smaller……so wot excercises r suitable for makingur boobs appear bigger then?
hey, i am about 144 and my breast size is 36B . i just want to lose like four pounds and just tone up but i dont want to reduce my breast size. what exercises i can do to limit the reduce in breast size while toning my body.
hey im sarah
my height is 5’1 and i weigh 55 kgs dat is liek woooaaaww!!and my bust size is 32D sooo plzz help me out !!ive joined a gym and it seems my bust is reducing!!help me out
If i isolate muscle groups when im trying, such as doing leg or ab curls… would it stop my breast from decreasing
If a woman wants to develop her chest and enhance your bustline just do decline chest exercises… this will target the muscles lower in the chest and as they grow they will lift and push the breasts making them appear more shaply and larger. Regular (flat) or worse, incline chest press exercises will develop the chest higher up and above the breasts which detracts from the feminine breast / figure. Tip: avoid flat and incline chest pressing exercises and use decline chest press exercises…
have i mention before that my friend from China whole-heartedly believes in papaya and full-cream milk OR boiled then cooled dandelion drink, to increase bust size.
just checked prev threads, guess not. haha. but u can read thread 17.. among many others’ opinions.
good luck Michelle!
Michelle: Sorry for the late reply… your comment slipped me. The reduction to a 36 A IS because of your weight loss.. you see, breast tissue is mostly fat. I’m sure you would have also noticed a significant reduction in your overall size as well, and that your clothes would fit so much better now? Cos when you lose weight.. fat loss occurs from all over your body, and not just a specific area. If this fitter version of you has a 36 A cup size, then you’ve just got to accept that, because thats what you are supposed to look like… its not as if the exercise has tampered with your genetics and made you look like someone you’re not supposed to be (I hope I’m making sense). There’s nothing much you can do to significantly increase the size of your breasts with exercise, but keep training with the weights and it could give you an ‘appearance’ of a fitter, firmer, and uhmm.. ‘perkier’ chest. ;). Hope I’ve answered your question.
mkness: Eating well and exercising never hurt anyone.. like I explained to Michelle, “If this fitter version of you has a 36 A cup size, then you’ve just got to accept that, because thats what you are supposed to look like…”.
hi!! i was wondering what a girl said earlier. i didn’t find the answer..
so i am at a 32A..the smallest you can get which makes me mad. will pilates and aerobics and other types of exercises decrease it anymore than it already is?
hi, i have a question concerning this topic. over this past month and a bit i have started working out at the gym regularly, about three times a week, and as a part of my routine i do bench presses, both with the actual bench and then with the incline machine. (granted I can only bench like 15 pounds, 30 on the incline, but i’m working on that!) when i was about 128 pounds my bra size was 36 C. now i’m about 118 pounds and i’ve gone all the way down to a 36 A. is this because of the weight loss? i’ve only lost about 10 pounds, after all. thanks so much for the help, i’ve been freaking out! also, if it IS because of the weight loss, is there anything i can do to increase my bust without gaining the weight back? thanks.
Bellatrix: Well, thanks for dropping by. And well done on your successful weight loss!
Just randomly chance upon this blog, lotsa interesting article to read ;) anyway i lost 11kg and i’m truly lucky that my bra size hasnt gone down a cup
carolyne: You answered the question yourself – you need to get back to what you were before you were overweight. Diet, and exercise will do the trick. And from there on.. a change in lifestyle and what you eat is essential to prevent you from gaining back those pounds…
See my writeup here: http://www.dailymuscle.com/2007/02/21/bust-size-would-it-decrease-with-sufficient-exercise/
All the best.
most people who are over weight and start to work out will loose weight in the face and boobs first. that is why people notice it when you loose weight. once your weight is to where you want it continue to work out and eat enough so you dont loose anymore weight.
how can i make my breast became smaller like they we before when i was not fat???
its all in ur mind ppl
try the placebo effect
dont work out for a month or two
see if it your breast shrinks or not
then continue working out
and see if your breast size varies or not
everyone is going on about Bs and Cs…I’m 32DD and i only came on this website as it came up on a google search for exercise to make my breasts smaller. Those girls who are Bs and Cs are lucky and i wish i was that size – mine are a nightmare. If i get a good supporting bra i cant wear strappy tops because the band is bigger than others just so its structured. And when i run or even walk briskly its awful! Its hard again because most bras dont come in DD and if they do only in a 34. so ive thought i ought to do something about it, hence my google search. if you could help me by advising me on different exercises i could i would be really grateful.
okay so i’m 6’2 on a good day and i weigh 160 pounds… i don’t know why i weigh so much! everyone around me calls me stick skinny but when i weigh myself i don’t FEEL skinny because people always say they are 120 or 110 i just am really selfconcious about my weight…am i overweight?
hey,
i’m also 5’1.. 18 years old, about 110 pounds. i feel really tiny saying this to a bunch of Bs and Cs, but i’m a 32 A.. pretty much the size b4 i fall off the charts. i’m not looking to lose weight or anything, but i plan on doing lots of cardio this summer to tone my body, especially my belly, and for my general well being. i was just wondering, does that same case of not worrying about breast size shrinkage count for me too? i kinda dont wanna lose any fat on my breasts cuz i’m just that small..
oh and how would the bc pill fit into all that, cuz i just started it. thanks!
DM: hi-5 on e discipline part. no qualms abt tt n no one shud dispute it either!
anyone can be lazy n undisciplined too. i can choose to refuse to read anymore of dis website, indulge in ice cream, fast food, mamak food, soft drinks, sleeping my butt off, hav lagers n pilsners by e lot, burn a pack a day.. :P
but no. i want to tk charg n bask in e results when i achieve it. if one cant tk charg of his/her ownself, how can one tk charg of anythg else? it’ll b a like living a lie, sort of *ponders again* :|
oh yeah, i want to amend smth in my previous post. dont cut out carbs entirely if doing lots of cardio, am i right? :) coz one needs it to burn calories, right? hmmm..
fitchick: It all boils down to discipline… an age old problem not only found in people trying to keep fit. Sigh. I mean.. I’m can be lazy and undisciplined too (I LOVE SLEEPING MY ASS OFF by the way)… but I choose not to.
cardio cardio cardio!! firm supporter.
n wear proper sports bra w full support rather than ur everyday casual bras though it may look better.. coz u dont want no saggy boobs.
cut out fats, polyunsaturated, high-calorie food stuff, cut down carbs (if u must, tk brown rice, wheat noodles or fibrerich bread), cut out soft drinks (including 100 plus if u’re jz gym-ing n not some marathon runner), reach for e tv n not e remote ctrl, tk e steps not e lifts..
bo0tyful: thanks for sharing! :)
kalpana: I don’t know if Yoga exercises could help do that.. i’m not really an expert when it comes to Yoga. What I could suggest is that you watch what you eat (control your calories) and engage in light exercise frequently.. over time, when there is an overall bodyweight/bodyfat reduction, your the size of your breasts should decrease.
Hi,
I want to reduce my breast size by yoga exercises..Pls help me and let me know some breast exercise (yoga asana) that I can reduce my breast size..(it is increase because breast feed) I am very fed up..Pls reply me
I’ve lost weight in the past and unfortunately gained it back. The first time I lost weight though I was a 36B and then ended up becoming a 36C after the weight lost, which was kind of weird. I lost about 20 lbs, unfortunately gained it back so I’m tryin to lose that and a bit more. The facts say I will lose breast size, but let’s hope I get lucky and it won’t happen and maybe it’ll get bigger again?? =D The breast size on my mom’s size isn’t that great, but apparently my grandma was pretty endowed, maybe I’ll be lucky with genes? My bra size is really about a 35 but 36 just feels more comfortable, maybe when I do lose weight I’ll end up being a 34D which is approximately the same as 36C or a 34C.
Kayla: I’ve addressed your question on my post here at http://www.dailymuscle.com/2007/02/21/bust-size-would-it-decrease-with-sufficient-exercise/
Kayla: Every person is created different and unique. :)
I’ll be replying your concern in a post of its own soon! Stay tuned.
Hi,
I’m 5’1 and 127 lbs. My body is not at all proportionate. My top half is…we’ll call it fuller than my lower half. At 19 my breasts are a size 38C. You can say they are driving me insane. I have just recently started a diet and exercise program to help me achieve my goal weight (Somewhere about 115lbs) I was wondering if you thought that was a significant amount of weight for it to be possible that my bust size might also decrease?
~Kayla
I just love how this cheeky lil article keeps coming up .. again and again! Heh heh. Will reply this one in a few days.. I’m just really really tied up with work lately… which also explains why I have not been updating as often. I even did not have the time to come up with a writeup which would be published in a local fitness magazine I really am looking forward to… Sigh.
I should be much more relaxed after the 8th of February. So please put up with my absence for a bit..
Just know that I still read all my mails on a regular basis, and am reading all of your comments. I love how you guys have taken this site as your own. Its more than I’ve ever dreamed of. Thanks everyone.
DM: The above article says :”Truth is, if you go below 12% body fat (which you shouldnt be unless you’re a competing female bodybuilder, etc),” What if I have an 8% body fat ? what’s wrong with havin a low body fat count? I’m 43KG and last Thursday when my pt weight me I had 8% body fat. Us normal people arent supposed to have such low body fat? oh an I am 150 cm only. So body fat that low ok or what? I was actually trying to go for 6% too.Will that be ok? Pls explain, hahaha
the breasts r mainly made up of fat cells, besides blood vessels, e muscles (pectoralis minor and major) and for us females: glands – milk glands.
as a dancer, i really appreciate e god-given size that i have, because when i dance, it doesn’t really ‘burden’ me all that much. i hav dancer friends who r really well-endowed (36B, 38A, 38B i think) n hav confessd that they would prefer smaller breasts as it is not as tiresome.
tiresome, in e sense that “when e legs hv landed on e floor, e boobs r still in motion”. also, it is sometimes difficult to maneouvre or execute certain stunts without lookg clumsy. costumes at times r an issue. in fact, sometimes certain roles in a dance item r given to smaller-chested/ ‘skinnier’ dancers because they literally ‘FIT’ e role.. not becoz they r better dancers.
but do not stop doing e chest exercises, as they do mk e breasts more supple.. tried n proven. it might be smaller (a cup size is like, wow! how did u do that?) but it’s definitely firmer, and looks great under a sports bra or a tight top ;)
Yea, you def lose some size at the beginning of weight loss. I am 5’10″ and went from 156 to 137. I also went from a very full 38C to a 34B.
But then I started doing a lot of chest exercises like one handed push ups and bench presses. I am now a small 36C, which I really like. In fact, it was having to buy 38 band bras that motivated me to lose weight in the first place. It’s too close to 40!!!
lol..seriously no ideas why girls want to reduce the boobs, but i think is good to excercise ur pectoral muscles..lol..coz it will help to reduce the saggy boobs.
hey! if im 5’8 and 135 punds and my bra size is 34b is that porportanit! no:( im only 16 so maybe im not done yet but it i were to lose 5 or 10 pounds will this make a huge diffrince in my breast size if any at all?
Babita: if you’re overweight, then starting yourself on a weightloss plan + a calorie reduced diet will definitely help you. Even if you’re not overweight.. a weightloss plan can help because your breasts are mainly fatty tissue. Just remember that EXERCISE ALONE wont help you… perhaps thats why you’ve always failed so far.
Hi,
I want to reduce my breast size by exercises..Pls help me and let me know some breast exercise that I can reduce my breast size..I am very fed up..Pls reply me
In a way, yes. The breast will get smaller. This applies only to fat woman. Scorkes lost 11kg, her breast got smaller at the same time.
I read an article somewhere that mentioned, men and women store fat at different places in their body. And, breast and butt are some of the places that stores fat in a woman’s body.
If a woman lose weight and decreasing the total fat percentage in her body, the size of of breast will reduce proportionately at the same time because of losing fat.
I’ve lost about 11 kgs in 2 years. Lost the boobs too. :(
scorkes : dude, thats one cup size down…tats a lot……
correction 2 cup sizes…I work with bras, and something that not a lot of people get is cup sizing. the cup (the letter) is proportional to the band (the number/inches around under bust) SOOO: a 34B is the same size “cup” as a 32C. if you go from a 34B to 32A it is like losing 2 cup sizes worth AND 2 inches around…that is a LOT of weight loss.
PS did you know, that about 75% of women are wearing the wrong size bra?!?! for those of you not so good with numbers that means 3 of every 4 women are not wearing the right size!! this can make you boobs look bigger or smaller than they are and hurt your back. if your breasts are hurting you, you are most likely not wearing the right sized bra and you dont have disproportionally large boobs.

Scorkes: 34B –> 32A?? Holy Cow! How much was your overall weightloss?
I was 34B. Now 32A.
Will photograph bras later for pictorial evidence :D
LOL @ dm
scorkes: Show us some proof? :P
MINE DID! BAH!
erk … yea true … my breasts didnt shrink … yet … :Þ
Well MINTy, i guess those are the ones that REALLY are well-endowed. Either that or implants? On a personal note, I’ve never really paid much attention to bust size on women. If they’re big, they’re big. If they’re not, so what? Small is cute too.. right? Heh heh. I know there are lotsa men out there are who will disagree, but to me – what matters most is the person that’s attached to the breasts. ;) Thanks for dropping by. And thanks for being the inspiration for my write-up. Cheers.
hmmm…if breasts r fats, i wonder why some stickly thin girls still have such ample bosoms… *ENVY*
thanks for the article DM !
