Should I have my implants placed over the muscle so I can continue with frequent push ups and pull ups?

Asked By:MaryV123 in Atlanta, GA

Exercise is very important to me, and I enjoy taking barre classes at the gym, doing frequent pushups and planks. I also do boot camp classes with weight lifting and pull ups. I've read about women who have under the muscle implants never regaining the strength in their pecs to be able to continue with this type of workout. How common is that? Should I opt for over the muscle so I can workout as usual? I'm currently an A-cup. Thanks!
