Dr Morales discusses exercising after breast augmentation 

He is 1000% correct. I was doing all of these (my surgeon didn’t give me any restrictions), and I had to get reconstructive surgery 5 years later. Please take his advice SERIOUSLY ladies! A very expensive mistake.

Very help advice. Thank you so much for this video.

This was very informative thank you!

Interesting. Thank you Dr.

Thanks for this. Very helpful.

Thanks for your time!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much for this video!!

Really needed this. Thanks!

you explained this so well! thank you

You have a wonderful teaching style and demeanor. I'd be proud to have you as my doctor.

Thank you for this info. I just had surgery and didn't know this. I will definitely go and ask my surgery and follow your advice.

wow, dips is what I used to do all the time (one of my favorite workouts) before my BA. I'm very glad I came across your channel, otherwise I wouldn't have known this. I wish my surgeon would have told me this. Great video - thanks for the upload.

Great info

Thank you so much for this video! I learned a lot! I appreciated the physical demonstrations because it helped me understand what not to do !

FINALLY a dr that agrees to what I have been telling people for years!! I seen this so often and even tell my bf when I had no implants that I dont like to train chest because I see some women have developed a “split” in between the breast where they have spaced out further than natural. I now have implants and still refuse to do these workouts. THANK YOU!!

Thank you for this great video! I often link this video in my breast augmentation group to help educate the women on this! Much appreciated.

Oh wow!! I have a gym at home and these are the most common ones I do, I had a BA 15 years ago. Today I am 12 days post op from my second BA and asked the Surgeon what my restrictions were for working out. She just said no lifting weights above my head for now. Anyhow I now see why I messed up my prior set of implants. Thank you so much for this video, I have been searching on RU-vid since I had surgery and haven’t been able to find anything. Thank you again 🙏🏻

Thank you doctor for educating us with this video. Those 3 excercises are my 3 favorite ones to do. I do see that majority of the trainers that I've trained with don't stress out the issue of avoiding these excercises if you have breast augmentation done. It makes a huge difference and I'm glad I ran into this video while researching more on what excercises are safe and what not. Thank you and God bless.

Thank you so much for this video! I just have done my surgery today, was wondering about exercises 👍🏼🙏🏻

Hi doctor. I watched nearly every video that you talked about the exercises we need to avoid. But as someone who has almost never worked out my chest, i cant find the proper exercises for my breast. Chest exercises are like variatians of those exercises you say we must avoid? CAN you PLEASE do a video that you show chest exercises we can make? thank you!

I definitely agree with him. I can flex and see my implant move so chest exercises are not needed. Hi beautiful Corey

Hello Doctor Rolando. I greatly appreciate finding you. You have it all. You are a trainer and a surgeon and understand the importance of like minded people including your clients. I follow all your videos on BA not just for exercising. You are a very special person for us ladies out there. I am a personal trainer and nutritionist and Pilate instructor. I am almost 3 weeks post op from a BA. with small implants to fill my B CUP OR LITTLE C CUP. The heaviest weight i use is 5 kg. I plank lots and do dumbbell press ups from the floor. I do the exercise ball plank in my classes and straight leg 100 beginners. Lots of my Pilates exercises are using the core and abs and arms and body weight. My weight is 46 kg but i am very strong with lots of definition but not big muscles. Will i be Ok to do these again.? and after 4weeks post op?. Because i always feel these exercises working my chest. I don,t need to do a chest push now because i have a chest! I have been a trainer and dancer ballet for over 30 years. Thank you so much for being there 💪💪

Hi Dr, I’m 12 months post op and have dual plane, 325cc mod plus xtra profile and I’ve just started pole fitness. It’s the first time I’ve enjoyed any form of exercise. Im quite petite 58kg and 5’4. I don’t do any dips or push ups in class. Should I not be doing pole 😭😭. I am not a candidate for overs because I was a 30 AA cup.

Why do I get pains in my chest if so any body workout at all that are specifically only for arms and back? I’m about 4 months post op

So glad I found this, thank you for sharing! I didn't realize I have to say goodbye to dips :( Do you have any input on heavy deadlifting? I'm wondering if the pulling up would put strain on the chest at all?

Great topic!! Thanks for making this video!! I just had my 20 yr old submuscular saline implants removed 1 wk ago and replaced with 575 silicone mod plus sientras. My plastic surgeon said they were difficult to place back under the muscle due to my really thick, well developed pec muscles (faithful Orange Theory Fitness member 4x week) I'm thinking l should to follow your advice going forward and ditch the presses, flys and dips to let the muscle relax and thin down (though l never had any side displacement of the old implants. I'm very interested in more defined better developed shoulders/upper arms.... any exercises off limits here that are too strong? Pushups? Recommendations? Thank you in advance 🏋😊💪

Hi, can you do a video of more specific workouts to not do with implants including machines. I will have a lift plus augmentation soon and I want to conserve my implants as long as possible. Thank you. 🙂

Great video! I'm almost 3 weeks post surgery and gearing up to start working out. I am glad I stumbled across this. I cannot help but notice that most arm or back exercises engage the pecks somewhat. Is there a risk there? Thanks!

Are hip thrusts and squatting with heavy weight on a squat rack okay after a BA? When should I ease into working out, which workouts do you recommend when I first get back in and lastly when can I completely resume all my exercises? Thanks so much for this video 😍

Can you please clarify if CrossFit is ok? I understand you need to avoid these three specific exercises - however, concerned about being able to do the push jerk, push press, shoulder press and similar. (Weighted barbell exercises). Thank you!

What about the tricep press machine? As well incline bench press? Where it mostly work your front shoulders/triceps and upper pecs instead of directly hitting the pec major. Thank you in advance.

Hi I just recently gotten a breast lift, reduction and implant surgery last month and I’m finally able to train now. I was into bodybuilding prior to my surgery and lost quite a bit of muscle because of my recovery after surgery /: can you please make more videos on more workouts us women need to stay away from when it comes to weight training and also what kind of training we should incorporate more especially with implants! Thank you so much I hope to hear back from you soon Dr!

I have had three BA is this is the first time I’ve ever herd this. Makes total sense though ! What are your thoughts on practicing yoga since it has push ups in the rotation. Really want to keep the integrity of my BA

Question. I am a circus performer I do aerial. I have implants for 10 years I have been doing a lot of pull ups climbing ropes burpees tons of upper body conditioning. My implants have moved like you described I plan to redo them. The implant is currently placed under the muscle. If I place the implant on top of the muscle will the implants possibly do this again? The implant def has drop down and towards my armpit. Thank you for your input.

Hello! i had my BA done under the muscle. I was an avid olympic weightlifter, and i wanted to get your feedback on whether it is acceptable or not acceptable to do snatches and clean and jerk? I know its a very compound movement. I would greatly appreciate your feedback! Thank you!

are any arm exercises allowed? like bicep curls or tricep extensions? sorry if this is a dumb question. thank you for posting

Curious what your thoughts are on rock climbing and pole dancing after a BA? Both body weight exercises but I feel like they pull on the chest quite a bit

Dr. Rolando can you please make a video on chest exercises the you recommend , that we CAN do.

Are there any exercises you can do for the upper pecs then? or pec minor? Or are you just suggesting NO chest exercises at all?

Thank you so much for this info. What about the rowing machine? Is it safe to use at all?

Are curl up/pull-up with a Pilates reformer machine okay to do? Body is laying down on reformer with legs elevated at a 45 degree angle and pulling up for a crunch with the straps.

Thanks for your videos! I had submuscular implants placed 14 years ago, I've always had upper back pain and I feel like they are pulling down and making it hurt worse despite supportive bras. They still look fine. My muscles are weak, I want to try strengthening exercises before undergoing surgery to put them above-muscle. Are there upper body exercises you DO recommend for submuscular implant women? (looking for low rep, high weight type) Thanks for your help!

How does working out with implant under the fascia is that any different than under the muscle working out? Does the fascia adhere tighter when working chest or is it still frowned upon

This will be my 6th month post-op,I’m a fitness junkie, I want to avoid ALL complications as possible and would like to know if lateral pulls are ok? Also would you be able to list a few other exercises to avoid,Thank you!

I am a pole athlete and am considering getting my breasts done. Would you recommend over the muscle so that my muscles wouldn't interfere? What are the downsides to having that? What are some of your advice for someone like me who is a pole dancer who uses her upper body strength a lot and wants to get breast implants?

Hi doc! Thanks for sharing:) What about push ups?

ORANGE THEORY Workouts??? Dr. Morales thank you soooo much for this. My board certified surgeon gave me the go ahead for bench press (I know every surgeon is different) only reason for wanting to lift was to 'feel' strong and keep up with the exercises in my OTF class. However, I will ask for modifications after your video. How do you feel about the water rowers? The trainers tell us it is 60%legs 20% core 20% arms. IT's a big part of their workouts and I'd like to keep it if not a risk to my implants under muscle. Also, can you clarify about push ups..I know in your reply you are fine with it but in your video around 6:45 you mention not doing 'hundreds of bench press or push ups' orange theory does incorporate push ups and chest via TRX straps please share your opinion on both. Thank you! From Chicago :-)

I hope you have "the talk" with your patients before the surgery.

Hi Dr thank you for the video it's so helpful. Will that be ok to do push up and reverse grip cable fly ? Or you need to minimize that also... again. Thank you for the tips its so helpful

Thank you for this video! I just had a bilateral scar revision 15mo post op from a lift, implants and galaflex placement and have been doing these every other day for a long time now. I am 17dpo from the correction surgery and they placed more galaflex and cleared me at 10 days to do lower body, core, light arms no lifting over my head whatsoever. I'll never do these three again. My question is about the plank and renegade rows. Are those okay. They seem to stretch that area and strengthen that area. Are those okay?

Are burpees ok to do after a BA? Also, are workouts such as CrossFit and boxing ok to do if you have a BA as well?

Hi so I got a few questions, I’m talking to my doc too but I always like getting a second opinion, I do mma, I train like every day, will this put a risk on my implants?

Sooo can I workout back biceps triceps?? I mean there is a triceps machine it’s similar to the dips ...so should i stop the tricep machine exercise??

What about tricep push down overhead press rowing movements I’ve herd some women have complications with those movements

So that means cable flyes are no too right? Also I used to do 10 pullups and I'm 7 weeks post operation it's soo hard now even doing one. Am I going to be able to get back to them again?

Dr. Morales, how about those who are in the military with semi-annual physical test including pushups?

Hi Doctor Morales , I will be joining a law Enforcement academy that will consist of 6 months of training and that includes push ups. Will my implants get displaced during that training? I wasn’t a good candidate for over the muscle so I got them Placed under. I don’t plan on continuing doing pushups after the academy only to get me through training.. I’d appreciate if you could answer my question.

So what excercises can we do to work the bra area, especially under arm side to tone?

Could you answer this for me, I'm super interested. So, chest press is a no-no, but push-up's are fine. How so? For most people, chest press with (for example 10kg) is much easier than doing push-ups with their body weight. I can really imagine that push-ups are doing the same thing to the implants as chest press. Thanks in advance for answering. 🙂

Can I do dead hang? I like to hang from the bar to strengthen my grip and stretch my body, but I was afraid that would hurt my implants

So implants interfere with optimal chest strength and hypertrophy development?

Also do you guys offer any sort of training for post op patients? I'd love to talk with your wife/you about being my trainer for a bit to get me back at it. I'm terrified to go through this again 😅. Thanks!

What about women who get their implants over the muscle? Can they train chest all they want with any excercises they like? Thanks! =)

Do you have any input on planks and mountain climbers?

Can I train calisthenics? I see you advice against dips, but what about front dips?

what about push up? body weight plank? pull up? i used to love working on my pull up. but now i after recover can u do work on it agin??

Thank you for this informative video! Im 4.5 weeks post op and i’m feeling my left breast move when i do any slight movement that requires the pectoral muscle but my right implant is fixed and doesn’t move at all 💔 im worried! Is this normal ? Please and thank you

I wish I knew this before I got implants ...

Do you recommend training chest at all after surgery? If so, what exercises do you recommend?

Are shoulder presses and bent over rows okay? They are a similar movement to chest presses... I really want to be safe with the implants. ☺️

Can I do burpees and diamond pushups??

Wow! Thanks a million for the subject of this video! I just got my breasts lifted, tucked and replaced over the muscle with gummy bear implants. I want you to show me how to make my booboes look great! I am a spin cyclist. Is this pressure on the handlebars okay?

What about structural imbalances between weaker chest with time vs back muscles? It’s a recipe for shoulder issues.

How long do i have to wait for leg and glute work out? And which ones can i do ?

What do u recommend to do in place of then if doing a video where they do those moves for 10 mins

O no I love dips

What exercise is allowed for triceps to prevent saggy underarm?

Is is the same risk for women who have OTM implants

So are push ups ok or not? I’m not clear on what you said about push ups….

Can someone who had breast lift without implants do these exercises?

What exercise can we do in place or for back strictly

Is it possible that one implant is not dropping due to muscle not relaxing? I have not done arms in 2 months and I can definitely tell. It’s my dominant side?

How do you train your back with implants

What are your thoughts on pull up?

I used to love pushups, what about those

How do you feel about Olympic lifting post op

can i still do muaythai or boxing after breast augmentation?

So... I’m a powerlifter and I wanted to get implants.... I’d have to say goodbye to heavy bench?

what upper body exercises CAN we do???

Are pushups ok!?

Are simple planks safe to do ?

What about push ups

What about Arnold press?

what about pushups??

🙌🏽

WOW pretty boy!

Meeting you Dr igho channel on RU-vid is like meeting GOD himself because, what you did in my life is what no other doctor can't do. Thank you for Dr igho for helping me Enlarge my breast naturally, you are a life saver may God bless you!

Interesting, it always feels like I have pressure. I thought maybe it was fluid .

The video has very low volume

To me her chest still looks like it’s it’s really high
