Breasts are a very fragile area of ​​the female body. Made up of fibrous, glandular and adipose tissues, the breasts are above all maintained by ligaments and the skin of the bust. Hence the importance of strengthening the muscles on which they rest, namely the small and large breastplates.

For this, we do a lot of stretching and bodybuilding and we pay attention to his outfit.

  • We control his posture to have a beautiful chest

It all starts with the posture. Shoulders back, keep your back straight if you are sitting or standing. Be careful to keep your shoulders down and keep your neck tight. You can practice yoga to learn how to control your outfit.

We strengthen the "natural bra" by improving its back and thoracic muscles. For example with a dumbbell with springs: six minutes of exercise equivalent to three-quarters of an hour with a conventional dumbbell. What quickly strengthen the pectoral muscles, as well as the famous curtain pleats under the arms, always difficult to target.

  • We sleep on our backs to keep the tonic side of our breasts

We avoid sleeping wrinkles that wrinkle the neckline sleeping on the back rather than on the stomach or side. Indeed, after 45 years, the elastic fibers that support the breasts eventually break and the marks are printed according to the quality of the skin, the size of the breasts and their spacing.

If, however, we only sleep on our stomachs, we can try to wear an "inverted" bra - like La Decollette, where the fabric keeps the breasts well separated - or a bra at night, which allows to control the spacing of the breasts. Virginie Couturaud, doctor of pharmacy and director of CERCO, has also had ten Decollette test women already having wrinkles on the neckline: "In one week, a visible decrease of the roughness of the skin and the cutaneous relief was observed, "she says. If not sexy, the invention is proven.

  • We enjoy snowshoeing and swimming

To flatter the décolleté and solicit the pectorals, Julie Ferrez, coach slimming and well-being, advises swimming (especially breaststroke), racket sports (tennis, badminton) or Pilates: "The work of the muscles is finesse , one improves his posture, and who says "right back" says "high chest" ", she explains. And we invest in a specific bra that keeps the breasts well without compressing them. One of them is chosen for its size, preferably rigid, which tones the suspensory muscles of the chest.

  • We avoid yoyo diets

Breasts are composed largely of fatty tissue, they suffer from yoyo effect consecutive to too rapid weight loss. Instead of repetitive diets, we eat less fat, less salty and less sweet. Of course we eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. By controlling gaps and excesses, we adopt a more balanced diet , and we avoid unnecessary catches or loss of weight.

  • Forensic exercises are required to strengthen the pectorals

At home, we do not hesitate to work his chest. Pumps are made or arms stretched out in front of you with your back straight, and a ball is strongly squeezed between your hands.

We also try a similar exercise: sitting on a floor mat, we join the palms of hands at chest height keeping elbows upright. One presses his hands against each other, and one repeats a movement twenty times. Result: we work the pectoral muscles in depth.

Another exercise: with forearms and elbows close, one raises one's arms above one's head, one separates them by making a circle and one goes down the arms on the sides. We start again fifteen to twenty times.
