Female gymnasts all totally flat?

Question

do female gymnasts wrap tape around their chests?

Answer 1

No, they just have so much muscle that their b***s don't poke out like other girls'. Plus, they wear sports bras, and we know what they do to your chest.

The Chinese ones are flat cause they are under age. Haven't hit puberty yet.

Answer 2

   I asked my wife where female gymnasts left their b***s whilst they were competing.

     She said I was being sexist.

     But your point is not lost.....

Answer 3

What do the chest have to do with the olympics or whatever your talking about? And no. They do not. Why? Because there all skinny. If there not then the muscles make them look big.

Answer 4

they burn all their fat by working out

Answer 5

those gals are all muscle n also hardly any body fat! since breast tissue if fat...they probly dont have much fat in their b*****s.

Answer 6

i think cause it looks like they don;t have any :$

i watched it today Nastia won the gold yay!

Answer 7

They keep their body fat so low that many do not develop large chests because they burn the fat that other women store in their b*****s.

Answer 8

My friend says the costumes are super tight and they use adhesive to "keep them from flying around" .

Answer 9

No, to be a gymnast you chest cant be to heavy or it would be the only thing the judges see-which totally sucks :[

Answer 10

Yes, tape is used by those that are more endowed.  However, I beg to differ on the comments about no fat/low fat = smaller b***s.  It seems that the glandular tissue is not being considered.  You can have zero fat with lots of glandular tissue and have at least a C/D cup.

However, the toned body with little fat does help with keeping the b*****s from being way out there for most.  It's just different for each person.

Answer 11

Haha, no.

They all are extremely flat though. Except Alicia Sacramone.

My cousin is a gymnast and has been to many competitions, and almost made the U.S. olympic team, I asked her the same question a while ago. She said no.

Hope I helped!

Answer 12

they can't have that extra weight movin around, besides theres nothing wrong with not having huge b***s

Answer 13

I think so, Nastia has bigger b***s than shown.

Answer 14

I think it's from all the training they do, and besides, I don't think they would want giant jugs flapping around everywhere while they're performing anyways.

Answer 15

No, their flat-chestedness is a combination of two factors.  First, competitive gymnast must start very early in life, but it's only upon hitting puberty that, like all girls, some percentage become well- endowed.  This permanent body-fat is a huge handicap and effectively eliminates them from elite competition.  Secondly, rigorous training and strictly-controlled diet throughout adolescence physically impedes the development of secondary s*x characteristics, especially b*****s, in a certain percentage of girls (this has been noticed in wartime famine survivors, too), and can even delay puberty all together (about 17% total body-fat is required for Menarche).

I really can't see why your perfectly legitimate question is not being taken seriously!

Answer 16

Most gymnasts have VERY strict diets and b*****s are made of fat tissue.  So, since they don't let fat accumulate, they look flat.  

However, for the Chinese girls, since they're underage, they probably just haven't hit puberty yet.  Some countries have typically different builds.  Many don't eat as many fatty foods as Americans.  :-)

Answer 17

Idk. I think they just work out alot..thats all.

Answer 18

i read an article about this and A. they work out to much to have proper body growth, most girls passions are to get married or what not but these girls care mainly about competition and do a great job of it, thats why many of them are short. B. these girls train to hard and can cause a delayed period, sometimes not even till they are 18 so this is very unhealthy but again, its their passion, C. i know this isnt by choice or whatever but they have no need to look nice for boys really, some of them dont even go to school cuz they train constantly, so there is really no need for them to wear shirts or bras to make their b*****s appear larger...thanx hope i helped

Answer 19

If they are over a certain cup size some do  

Answer 20

b*****s are made up of fat. When you are in continuous vigorous movement and exercise like they are, you will get smaller.

Answer 21

Unless you are under 12, and then you do not have to wrap anything. LOL!
