    Default stretching pecs after submuscular BA

    I love my boobs however I'm used to being stronger and more flexible in my chest. Cnan I do any damage from stretching my pecs too much now that i have implants? Boy I hope not.

    I've had my boobs for like 2 years now I think.

    Stretching good. Heavy lifting/pushing bad?

    That's cool. My main thing is regaining my flexibility. Thanks for the responses!

    If heavy lifting is so bad after 2 YEARS, how do body builders and strippers that do intense pole work manage. I think you'd be fine to do just about anything after that long.

    ^^^ A lot of bodybuilders get over the muscle. At least the ones I see and know.

    Polework and climbing is fine. I still can't do as many push ups in a week as I could do before. I definitely need more recovery time or I just do girly ones. Plus push ups feel weird now.

    Yup, they do look horrible. I think a lot has to do with the fact that they are very lean and then they go over the muscle to retain muscular power.

    My surgeon has forbidden me from doing ANY chest work. He said any time the pec muscle is flexed it squeezes the implant and it's not good for it. So I dont do any now. I do some pole (it's been 6 months) but nothing like what I did before. I def no longer do push ups - plus there is no need to exercise the chest my surgeon said as we now have great shaped chests coz of our implants.

    Many girls who ignore this advise end up with horrible looking BA's.

    What I meant to say before is that by working out you're not going to pop the implant or anything like that.

    I've seen a video where they ran over an implant with a jeep and it was fine. I don't see how a muscle could be strong enough to do it. Maybe if you worked out hard on a day to day basis or there was some kind of small defect, but yall are right, better not to risk it.

    not only that but you can wear the implant out twice as fast thus needing replacements sooner becuase they "took a beating"

    But can I OVERstretch with implants? Is there a problem with that. Stretching is my main concern. I don't "train" chest but I demonstrate pushups in my classes when I have a bunch of newbies.

    Hmm. I have submuscular implants and I lift weights for chest--about 50 lbs for flyes and 60 lbs for seated chest press. They do get squeezed, but I haven't had any issues thus far (I've had my implants for 7 years this month). (Wow, time flies.) I mean, I'm not exactly looking to break 100 lbs with my bench press but nor do I stick to the pink dumbbells. Obviously I'm careful to use good form and I use a cautious approach (I don't want my boobs to deflate any more than anyone else does), but no problems thus far except for the occasional twingy muscle.

    Anyway, I've read that over time, the weight of the implants can actually thin the muscle or breast tissue, and/or the skin, and make rippling more apparent. Plus, gravity is gravity. So I lift not only for strength, but to prevent the muscle from thinning from the pressure of the implant. Besides, I'm constantly carrying heavy things anyway, whether it's a 40-lb tub of cat litter, 50 lbs of groceries or my 35-pound mountain bike. If carrying those isn't going to dislodge my implants or cause them to rupture, then pumping some iron isn't going to, either.

    Interestingly enough, my boobs look BETTER when I lift, as opposed to when I'm not going to the gym and thus not lifting. Plus, when you think about it, it's common to massage the implants on a regular basis (depending on the advice of one's surgeon), and I would think that squeezing the boobs via massage would be just as stressful on the implants as lifting weights would be.

    on that note I think it might make a difference whether one has textured or smooth implants. Textured implants dont need to be massaged whereas smooth do.

    Anyway the best advise on this issue is ask your surgeon.

    As far as stretching goes I'm not really sure, I was warned not to work the chest but my surgeon didn't mention stretching.

    My sister's surgeon said that she could fall out of a second-story window, land on her chest and not pop a boob. *laugh* Kind of a funny mental picture, but reassuring.

    i did see a video online of a car running over an implant and it didnt pop. i guess they can withstand 300 lbs of pressure before popping.

    however it wasnt repeated and im sure it damaged the structural integrity of the casing.

    My suregon told me he doesn a lot of athletes, even tennis players and does them under the muscle. He said any kind of workout can be performed, starting little by little going back to the way it was pre-op.
    I do chest exercises at the gym regularly and never had any problems.
