BreastCare - flexibility and toning protocol  


The Looking Fit Corporation strongly recommends these simple exercises to capture your goal of improving your breast's appearance. The exercises are very easy and only require a minimal amount of your time. We recommend these exercises be implemented in one day on and one day off cycles.

Flexibility Exercises

Lower Pectoralis Flex: Standing up place your open hand along a wall and/or door jam. Open your body away from the wall so that your face is perpendicular to the wall. You should feel a significant stretch from your lower and upper chest area. Do this for two 10 second intervals with each arm.

Upper Pectoralis Flex: Now face the wall and place your open hand along the wall with your hand fully above your head, slightly pull down without moving your hand away from the wall. You should feel a significant stretch deep in the upper chest and lower shoulder area. Do this for two 10 second intervals with each arm.

Latissimus Flex: Now, fully extend your arm across your body and place your open hand along the wall. Slightly turn your body away from your hand that is along the wall. You should not be able to see where your hand is placed. You should feel a significant stretch along your back as well as the back of your arm. Do this for two 10 second intervals with each arm.

Toning Exercises

Dumbbell Bench Press: lay down on a flat bench with your hands straight up in the air a little wider than shoulder width apart. The palms of your hands should be facing towards your knees. Bring the dumbbells down to your chest so that your elbow joint becomes slightly less than perpendicular and press the weight up. Do 3 sets of 12-15 repetitions. The amount of weight used for such an exercise can vary from 3 to 10 pounds.

Dumbbell Fly Press: Now with your hands up in the air rotate them so your palms face each other. Bring the weight down pulling your hands apart. Then bring the palms of your hands together at the top of the motion. You should feel a significant stretch in your chest area when your hands are at the bottom of the motion. Do 3 sets of 12-15 repetitions. The amount of weight used for such an exercise can vary from 1-5 pounds.

Bent Over Dumbbell Rows: finally, stand up and face the bench. Place one knee and one hand on the bench. The other foot should be on the floor while you grasp the dumbbell with your free hand. Your upper body should be parallel to the bench. Pull the dumbbell to your chest and slowly release. You should feel the muscles in your back squeeze together while you bring the dumbbell to your chest. Do 3 sets of 12-15 repetitions. The amount of weight used for such an exercise can vary from 3-10 pounds.

Note: Any weighted object can be used to replace the dumbbells (ie: books, canned good). Please do not attempt to exceed your lifting capacity. It is better to do more repetitions with less weight than less repetitions with more weight.
