Trying to make bust smaller~!

Hey there!

The topic says it all. The reason I wish to make my bust smaller is because of the typical back pain associated with large breasts, and also the fact that regular clothing sizes tend to not fit me so well.

My bust circumfrence is 86 cm, about 34 inches, and I am a size C bra. I realize that doesn't sound so big, but I am 162 cm tall (5'3.5") and weigh 47 kg (about 104 lb). So my bust is large in comparison with the rest of my body and does in fact give me back pain.

Some friends have told me that my bust cannot get smaller because I am already thin. If this is true, then I do really wish to know some good exercises to do at home which will at least strengthen the muscles associated with the breasts so that I won't have so much back pain anymore.

Thanks so much for reading! Any replies will be much appreciated.
 
Hey Zenith, welcome!

If you want to reduce your breast size, then losing fat would possibly help, but then you would most likely lose fat from your whole body, not just your breasts.

If you want to build strength to possibly reduce the back pain, you'll want to to back strengthening exercises, especially for the mid-back, but also for the upper and lower back as well. Focus on exercises like scapular retractions, rowing, lat pulldowns, etc. All focusing on neutral posture and keeping the shoulders down throughout the exercises. If you need more help with the exercises let me know and I can give you more specifics.

Also, have you been properly fitted for a bra? Wearing the right one can make a big difference.
 
I would also highly recommend something for the spinal erectors (lower back) like Romanian Dead Lifts or hyper-extensions and some ab/core work to balance it out (sit ups/leg raises).
 
Thank you so much for the advice! I hope I can do most of those exercises with hand-weights. Lol. They're all I have for now. Rowing seems like something I could do with them at least.

I've been fitted for a bra...Like years ago. So it'll be a good idea for me to get fitted again soon when I get the chance.

Thanks again~!
