After a BA is there a limit to chest activity once fully healed? Push-ups pull ups etc.

Just an FYI I can't do push ups,, like I said feels weird but I can't do planks no problem! Weird right?? Anyway good luck 

Dammit!!! CAN do planks!!!! Sometimes I hate the iPhone!

Thanks haha yes I will definitely let you know! I've been folowing your progress on your revision you look great! So happy for you :)

Lol I knew what you meant! Yeah I can do planks too! Haven't even tried push ups. But I was at the park with one of the kids I watch and I used to always play on the zip line with them and she asked me to go across and I tried without even thinking about my new situation! And BOOM ! Realized I couldn't hold myself up

Ok cool and thanks :) I don't know why I didn't go this route in the first place?! Lol

Hmmm that has to be a weird feeling...poor kids....wondering what happened to their nanny. I've tried doing random things and it's so surprising on how often we use these muscles! I do hope that one day oir bodies adjust and it feels normal or at least close to it. Its prob the only downfall to having these things!

Really? Wow... I honestly never even thought about it until now. How long have you had yours?

Little over 4 years. Direct chest exercises force the implants out of the pocket, that can cause problems...I just dislike the feeling, so I've avoided it, but really look forward to doing pushups, etc again. Many female body builders get theirs over muscle, to avoid the issue. You could do the exercises, it's just a gamble.

Really :s probably would have been helpful had I considered that before getting my BA ... It probably wouldn't have changed my decision. But I guess I just hadn't thought about it. I like to be as active as possible. I love races and obstacle courses. They help me to push myself to new limits and train hard. It's one of the main things that keeps me in somewhat decent shape! Now I've been thinking about training and stuff for next years races and that when this question arose. So no pulling myself up and over 12foot walls? Or up a rope and what not!? Meh!....I mean I know I can find other things to keep myself fit but... That is a huge bummer. I may have to let go of my love of obstacle courses ...cuz skipping an obstacle isn't an option for me! Or! Now my mind is racing... What if I slip off a ledge and have to pull myself up!? What then...I'm not able? I'd just fall and die... I know ridiculous thinking...but I'm serious that is somewhat annoying to me. Angry I didn't take that into consideration

See how your body reacts! Like I said I have a lot if friends that have unders that have no problem doing chest at all. Make take you a bit to get used to it but there is hope!!! It's all individual!!

No u would fall and die. You may just rupture a boob...lol. people have had these things for many years and tou never hear of this til you get them so I'm sure it can't be too bad and ur body adjusts.

Wouldn't ** oops...lol

Hi Urnot4go10! I had my 1 year check up at the beginning of August and all is great! I need to update my pics! I haven't been on the site for a while. I spoke with Dr. Epstein about the upper body workouts. From what I understood it depends on what type of implant you have. For me I chose smooth round silicone. Dr. Epstein said that it was ok to work out the upper body. Smooth round implants can continue to be massaged and using the muscle he said actually continues to do that. He said I could do small movements/workouts not to strenuous to start. With all that being said... I have continued my workouts as normal. However, the was my chest muscles are now used definitely is different and feels rather awkward. I am getting used to it over time. After the surgery I couldn't even hang from a bar. Now I can. I still do push-ups...but not full ones. I do mini everything. Although Epstein said it's ok he said to go slow start light. I'm tending to stay in that zone just out of caution and comfort. I still do planks also. I've read a lot about it and it seems everyone has a different answer. I'm listening to my body and doing what's best for me. At times I wish I could have went over the muscle so that it wouldn't affect me so much... But I would have been more unhappy with the results I'm sure..having such little breast tissue to begin with I definitely would have been able to see the implant thru the skin. So overall I am happy with my decision. At times I do wish I could be more physically capable with my upper body tho. Comes down to what matters more to you I guess. Ultimately I'm happy. I made a compromise . I can be physically fit/healthy but also have boobs however I will probably never be able to do everything I challenge my upper body to do. I hope this helps some! It's definitely good to be thinking of every possible lil thing :) Dr. Epstein has been great! I actually scheduled an appointment last week because I felt some tightness in my left breast and got a little worried. He took a look and a feel and it was nothing with the implant ! I was close to me period and it could have been a cyst or just muscular from my workouts. It was nice though because he told me it didn't impress him (meaning there was nothing to be concerned about) but he didn't make me feel dumb at all for coming in. And I like that there is no extra costs for follow up visits! So and questions or check ups it can just go whenever I need. :) Oh by the way I still do insanity... Love it! Sometimes I just stay in plank instead of the push-ups if I feel it's too much or I do girl push-ups lol still a great workout!!! Good luck!

Thank u so much for the info .. Veryyyy helpful !!:):) post pics later please .

Thanks! Yeah I was pretty excited to be able to put on the flimsy bra and have boobs to give it shape so it wasn't two flat triangles on my chest! I read your profile and I think the 400ccs will look awesome on you :) my pocket couldn't fit more than 371cc so I went to the max. I could have went HP but they wouldn't have looked as natural and they wouldn't have had as much cleavage so the moderate plus is great for me. I'll be following you on your journey! I went crazy waiting for mine! It was/kinda still is an obsession haha

Haha ya same for me I don't want high profile! I'd rathe go just a bit smaller :) and thanks :D and ya I'm sure it's still exciting I just know I'm going to obsess about them when mine are done :p

I have the same as you and appreciate the look I have achieved with mod profile. Still so focused on what they look like day to day!!

Yes I know! I can't stop wondering how they will look one or two more months down the road!! Your results look great :) I like the modesty birds you added to you one pic! So cute hehe

Yeah I am definitely still obsessing haha and my boobs still fit in my old wardrobe however it makes a huge difference having cleavage in it as opposed to wearing my bombshell bra with some cleavage but no real upper fullness... So needless to say I've been having a blast trying on all my clothes again!

Thanks. Weird but it worked, lol!! I tried on 2 different sports bras today and was shocked when the 34 C was too small in the cup on both, whattt?!? I am measured next week, so I will see but I did not think I was a D!

Me too! It sure has helped my inner confidence.
