I am trying to get in shape before summer. I'm 19, female, 5'6 and weigh roughly 57kg. I have a big bust but a small bum. Ideally I'd like to lose a little and tone up a lot as I'm very untoned! I have a gym membership so access to a lot of equipement and I swim twice a week. I'd like to work out up to 4 days a week. Does anyone have any suggestions on what cardio and toning exercises I should be doing (especially for my stomach and thighs!)? Also what should my calorie intake per day be? Finally, are there any exercises I can do for a perkier bust? Thanks X

Why aren’t you adding more cardio exercise in your workout regime? Believe me, if you continue in the same old fashion then you would not get result and it would demoralize soon.
Since, cardio is one of the most important things you can do for your body, whether you want to lose weight, build muscle or improve your health.
Now, come to the problem you are facing right now. Please, take an approach that involves exercise to make your breasts perkier. Focus your attention on the pectoral muscles that are underneath the breasts. By working these muscles from multiple angles, you will not increase the size of your breasts, but you can give them a lift.
Just read out couple of my suggestion and do exactly the way I recommend to you:
• Grab a set of dumbbells and do incline presses on an incline bench. Lie on the bench with your feet planted firmly on the floor and hold the weights an inch apart above you with your palms facing forward. Bend your elbows to lower the weights to your sides and stop when your upper arms parallel the floor. Push the weights back to the starting point and repeat 10 to 12 times.
• Lie on your stomach to do push-ups. These work the middle portion of the pectorals. Place your knees together on the floor behind you and place your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart on the floor. Push yourself up until your arms are fully extended and form a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Lower yourself by bending your elbows, and stop when your upper arms parallel the floor. Push back up and repeat for 10 to 12 repetitions. Place your toes on the floor for a more intense variation.
• Secure your lower shins under the padded support on a decline bench to do decline chest presses. These work the lower part of the pectorals. Hold dumbbells an inch apart above your chest with your palms facing your knees. Lower the weights to your sides by bending your elbows and stop when they are by your stomach. Push back up in a steady motion and repeat for 10 to 12 repetitions.
• Lie face-up on a flat bench and hold dumbbells an inch apart above you with your palms facing each other. Bend your elbows slightly and maintain that bend as you lower the weights to your sides. Stop when your upper arms parallel the floor, push the weights back up and repeat for 10 to 12 repetitions.
• Perform a set of pullovers with a dumbbell. Lie face-up on a flat bench and hold the dumbbell by the handle with your hands overlapping and your arms fully extended. Lower the weight over your head until your arms are about parallel to the floor and push it back up. Repeat for 10 to 12 repetitions.
Keep in mind, you should perform three or four sets of your exercises, and work out three days a week on alternating days.
