Try these easy exercises to give your ladies a lift without surgery
Thanks to the amazing power of modern pushup bras, now even small-chested women can fake a figure like Sofia Vergara. And while tricky undergarments are a great quick-fix for enhancing your chest, you can get a similar, longer-lasting effect by strengthening the right muscles—the ones that lie below and behind your ladies, the pectoralis major and minor.
Bonus: This plan is also designed to build the muscles in your back and shoulders that are responsible for perfect posture—the key to flaunting your curves with confidence.
How it works: Three days a week, do 1 set of each exercise back to back, with no rest between moves. After the final exercise, rest for 30 seconds, and repeat the full circuit 3 more times (4 total rounds).
Total Time: up to 15 minutes
You will need: Free weights, Medicine ball, Swiss ball
