working out and running

[jralva]

hi guys,
My girls just turned 3 months old, I started lifting again and doing chest exercises felt funny, i have partial unders, i started running again yesterday, and i was consummed by the thought that if i start running a lot my implants will bottom out.

I double bra, but still, i get sick of doing low impact stuff at times, and love running. any light on the subject would be appreciated.

I wear 2 bras too. It feels wierd, but PS says i will be ok. Just use support. Now, push ups are a whole different story. They say it takes time for it to go away and feel normal...

If your surgery was done right and you are totally healed, I don't think running is going to make you bottom out. Bounce, maybe, and sag, maybe, but if you use a good, supportive bra, you should be fine. I wear a close-fitting, heavy-duty lycra running top (Nike) with a shelf bra and my boobs barely move at all when I run. They are somewhat squashed under there, but they are held tight and it is not uncomfortable. Talking about it is making me want to go and run! I should get off the forum and go! LOL!

hi slinky,
thanks for the info, i'll try to get a better bra,...btw, did you get complete unders or partials?

I ask because i read that complete unders have more lower pole support and i;m thinking that it would have less of a chance of bottoming out

I'm just over 3 months post Breast lift/and Breast augmentation, i'm paranoid since i only have partial unders and the bottom third of the implant sits over the muscle with know interanl bra like support that one would get from complete unders.

Hi!
I don't know about partial unders, I have complete unders and when I wear just one bra they move just a little...If I am going to do like a heavy workout I wear 2 bras. They feel perfectly normal,like pre BA.

But when I am doing push-ups they feel kinda funny still and I am more than 4 months post-op (can't remember exactly,look at my siggy)

The best way to know is calling your PS and talk to his assistants..I am pretty sure other patients have the same question.

As far as I know, I have complete unders. So I suppose there is a bit more internal support. Still, if you wear a good bra, one made for heavy activity, I think you will be fine. What size are you now in a regular bra? I am a 32DDD/34DD.
