Will chest workouts make my boobs shrink?

5'2.5, 120lbs, 32B.
As you can see, the last thing I need is a smaller chest.



So if there are workouts that shrink boobies, which ones should I avoid? Which ones can I do?

    You cannot spot reduce. Meaning you can't pick where you lose weight from. No specific exercise will directly make your boobs smaller but your overall weight loss may and most likely will.

    I'm not sure. Your body will do what it wants. Maybe they will. Maybe they won't.

    Also, your bra size might change, but not what you would expect. You could go down to a 30 band size but the difference between the band and bust might be the same.

    Instead of going down to a 32A, it could be that you end up as a 30C. ( Which sounds better than the 32A ).

    Our gym teacher told us in grade 10 that chest presses would make our boobs bigger. She might have been lying to get the girls into strength training exercises. BUT theoretically.. you'd be building/toning your pecs so you may find your boobs sit a bit higher (read:perkier) and project farther from your chest wall (read: larger bra size) although it's kind of an artificial increase in bra size in a way... I would still say they won't get any smaller from chest exercises. Neutral or bigger. Chest could get smaller from overall weightloss though you can't control that

    as the others have said you can't spot reduce but I second the chest presses almost giving you bigger boobs. they dont get bigger but mine are perkier since losing weight and lifting because it builds up the muscle base beneath your boobs :) yay!
