I am a 24 year old who just entered the world of triathlon training. My first sprint distance race is in 4 months. So far I am loving the training, but because I have breast implants I was curious as to how it may affect my training. I have 375cc silicone implants (under the muscle). Took me from an A to a big C cup.
Chest dominant exercises still feel weird to me 1.5 years post op so I avoid push ups, bench press, pull ups, etc. My main concern with triathlon training is whether or not swimming will affect my implants since swimming uses the pec muscles. Most swimsuits don’t have much support, and I don’t want my implants to be displaced/migrate outward. Are there any triathletes with implants? If so, how did they affect your training/performance and how did you navigate the swimsuit situation?
