Can exercising make your breast smaller?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can not: Spot reduce to lose breast fat. However, if you were to lose weight in general, it is likely that there would be some weight loss through out the body. The actual proportion of weight loss to the breast isn't known. If you were to increase pectoralis muscle size- it would give a larger chest but would not increase cup size.
