Boost Your Bust! 4 Breast Lifting Exercises

Outside of being pregnant, gaining weight or having surgery, there is nothing you can do to make your breasts bigger. You can, however, make them LOOK bigger.

"Developing the muscles underneath your breasts will enhance the look of your breasts and make them appear larger," says Jen Comas Keck, a certified personal trainer and former figure competitor.

Obviously, it is important to keep realistic expectations here. It isn't as though doing these exercises will make you look a cup size larger or anything like that but the majority of women fail to workout their chest muscles which means they fail to utilize this natural boost.

The following exercises were designed by Comas Keck for women. "Working the chest from multiple angles with enough weight ensures plenty of stimulus to increase strength and develop the muscles," she says. "This can add beautiful shape to the chest." The key is to make sure you are using enough weight. At the end of each set you should feel like you can do 2 more reps but no more than that. It’s important to challenge yourself with heavier weights in order for muscle growth to take place," says Comas Keck.

Do this routine twice a week and you'll be seeing results in no time!

1. Dumbbell Bench Press

Lie face up on a bench with your arms straight, a dumbbell in each hand. Lower the dumbbells until they’re close to the sides of your chest, then press them back up to the starting position. That's one rep. Do 10 reps, then go to move 2 without rest.

2. Push up

Start on all fours, your palms slightly wider than your shoulders, feet close together. Your body should form a straight line from head to toe. Lower down until your chest almost touches the floor. Keep your upper arms at a 45-degree angle to your torso. Pause, then push back to the starting position. Do 10 push ups and rest 90 seconds.

Repeat moves 1 and 2 one more time (so you'll do each exercise twice). Rest 90 seconds before move 3.

3. Incline Dumbbell Bench Press

Sit on an adjustable bench set to a low incline (about 15 to 30 degrees) and place your feet flat on the floor. Grasp two dumbbells and hold them up above your shoulders, arms straight. Slowly lower the weights down to the sides of your chest. Pause, then press the dumbbells back up toward the ceiling. Do 10 reps, then go to move 4 without rest.

4. Dumbbell Fly

Lie face up on a flat bench with your feet flat on the floor. Hold a pair of dumbbells above your shoulders with your elbows slightly bent. Keeping the slight bend in your elbows, lower the weights until your elbows are even with your chest. Keep the same bend in your elbows as you press the weights back up. Perform 10 reps. Rest 90 seconds.

Repeat moves 3 and 4 (you'll do each exercise twice).
