When it comes to reducing weight, you lose fat from your entire body, and not a particular area. Spot reduction is not possible. However if you want to spare your breasts while dropping kilos from the rest of your body, we have good news for you. According to celebrity fitness expert, Marika Johansson even if you lose weight from your chest, you can keep your breasts looking lifted by adding specific strength training moves like planks, push-ups, bench press and dumbbell flyes to your daily workout routine. Along with the lymph nodes, ducts and lobes, your breasts consists a lot of underlying fat. Strength training will build your underlying pectoral muscles while helping you burn fat. Also, do not forget to warm-up before you perform these cardiovascular activities. Perform five-ten minutes of light cardio exercise before you move on to these strength training moves.

Yoga can also give an excellent lift to your breasts. Yoga poses such as sirsasana or headstand, bhujangasana or cobra pose, and setubandhasana or bridge pose will bring about firmness while improving the shape of your breasts. According to yoga expert Sunaina Rekhi, these poses will help build and firm muscles in the chest region and below your breasts.
