On the one hand the poses which body builders strike during competition involve forceful contraction of well-developed pectoral muscles. This places subpectoral breast implants at a disadvantage, since the contraction of the muscle will distort the shape of the breast.
There are a few special sports where it may make sense to consider placing the implant in the subglandular plane, a space that can be developed beneath the undersurface of the breast and above the pectoral muscle.
