7 Exercises That Will Naturally Increase Breast Size
|Breast size is determined by a combination of genetics, lifestyle, and body weight. If you’re interested in increasing your bust size without surgery, your options are limited.
Be wary of supplements, herbs, creams, enlargement pumps, and massages that are advertised as natural remedies. There is no evidence that these are effective.
Exercises that focus on the pectorals, back, and shoulder muscles can help to firm and tone the chest muscles behind your breast tissue and improve your posture.
You can do these seven exercises at home with weights, cans of food, or a water bottle filled with sand or rocks. Ensure that you’re using proper technique to get the best results and avoid injury.
