Breast health exercise methods

For the vast majority of healthy women, the core logic of exercise that can truly improve breast circulation and reduce the risk of swelling, pain and hyperplasia is "low weight-bearing, less squeezing, and focusing on activating the perithoracic muscles and draining superficial lymph." 3-4 times a week for 20 minutes each time is enough. There is no need to chew hard bones to practice weight-bearing chest muscles, and there is no need to follow the trend of Internet celebrities to do "breast beauty exercises", which may put a burden on the breast glands.

A while ago, I accompanied my best friend who was diagnosed with grade 2 breast hyperplasia to the breast surgery department of a tertiary hospital for a follow-up visit. The female doctor who saw the patient scanned the weight-bearing chest clamping tutorial saved on her mobile phone and frowned on the spot. My best friend said that in the past half month, she has been feeling pain in her chest and even wearing underwear is uncomfortable. The doctor said that half of it was due to staying up late and changing the plan, and the other half was caused by this.

To be honest, I have been through similar pitfalls before. I practiced bench pressing with a fitness blogger for more than half a month. He said that it could increase the size of the cup and improve sagging. However, the result was that my breasts were not enlarged, and the swelling and pain in my aunt's front actually worsened. I was scolded by the doctor when I went for a follow-up examination. There is actually a lot of controversy here. The fitness circle always says that breast training can support the breasts, improve their shape, and allow for secondary growth. However, the consensus of the breast department is that the number of breast glands is basically fixed in adulthood. The so-called "cup rise" is mostly padded by the thickening of the chest muscles. The thickened chest muscles will continue to squeeze the breast tissue. People with hyperplasia and nodules can easily aggravate local poor circulation and lose more than the gain.

In fact, the really useful movements are very simple, and there is no need to go to the gym at all. For example, I now do lymphatic drainage every day when I take a shower. I raise my arms while pouring hot water, use my fingertips to push from the inside of the arm to the armpit, and then gently pull it from the armpit along the side of the chest toward the sternum. The force is light enough that only the skin feels a slight pulling sensation. Don't rub the gland itself too hard. Just push for three to five minutes each time. Every time before, my aunt was so swollen that I didn't dare to touch it the week before, so I kept pushing for half a month. I almost didn't feel any pain that time when my aunt came. The 3mm nodule detected last year did not grow during the review this year, which was quite surprising. Oh, by the way, don’t believe the nonsense about “massaging breasts to enlarge” and “essential oils to eliminate nodules”. I paid this IQ tax before and bought hundreds of breast-beautifying essential oils. Later I realized that if the intensity is not controlled well, it may injure fragile glands and it is useless.

You can also take time to move a few times when you are working. Sit up straight on a chair, clasp your hands behind your back, and slowly lift it up until you feel a stretch in your chest. Hold it for 10 seconds and then release it. Just do three or five groups. The main purpose is to relax the tight and hard pectoralis minor muscles. Nowadays, everyone lowers their head and plays with their mobile phones every day, sits in the office with their breasts hunched over, and the pectoralis minor muscles are constantly contracted, which puts pressure on the blood vessels and lymph nodes in the chest. If this area is loosened, the circulation will naturally improve. Some people have asked me before why some doctors do not allow breast expansion exercises. In fact, it is not impossible. Ordinary small-scale breast expansion and shoulder movement are absolutely fine. If you use two kilograms of dumbbells to do large-angle breast expansion, and your breasts are relatively plump, it will pull the suspensory ligaments of the breasts, which will make them more likely to sag over time. You just have to control this.

Different people have different preferences. My friends who like traditional Chinese medicine will gently massage the Tanzhong point or tap the Jiquan point under the armpits when they have nothing to do. They say it can soothe the liver and regulate qi, and is particularly useful in improving the pain in the front of the aunt. Western medicine doesn’t pay much attention to acupuncture points. As long as the breast is relaxed without squeezing or pulling, and your chest feels relaxed and not tight after doing it, it will be useful. You don’t have to worry about any standard posture.

Oh, by the way, there is another prerequisite to remind everyone. If you have been diagnosed with breast nodules of type 3 or above, or have recently undergone breast surgery, do not just follow the exercises blindly. Ask your attending doctor first to see what intensity of exercises is suitable for your situation. Don't show off.

Actually, breasts are very delicate organs, and the most annoying thing is when you mess with them. Shaping bras that are so tight that they bulge, endless nights, and the sulking feeling that is held in your heart can do more damage to it than anything else. In the final analysis, exercise is just a small auxiliary thing. It doesn't need to be so complicated. Taking three to five minutes to move every day is more reliable than any fancy breast enhancement products.
