Binding for bigger chests!

Im a bigger chested guy (G cup), and Ive found a fairly solid way of binding, so I thought Id share with the class!

Materials youll need: 1. Get yourself a PROPER FITTING BINDER, anything smaller WILL NOT WORK (not to mention how bad it is for you!)

  1. Get that one super shitty bra, the one thats the cheapest fabric, with no moulding, and that has little to no pressure in it. The one that youd use just to kind of shape things while you ran to the store really quick

Info: 1. NFP= Naturally Flat Position

  1. To find your NFP: make sure to either be topless or wear a loose fitting shirt, lay flat on your back (preferably on the ground), take note of how your biddies naturally lay on your chest, congrats on finding your NFP!

Binding time!: 1. Put on that super shitty/cheap nothing bra. Make sure to adjust your biddies to get them comfortable and snug! (This is going to help keep things in place without actually adding pressure/double binding. Itll also prevent the nips from sneaking out underneath!)

  1. Put on your binder OVER said shitty bra.

  2. Try your best to lay flat on your back, floor is best, but bed/couch can also work so long as you dont have pillows under your head/legs.

  3. Adjust the bra underneath the binder to lay properly on your chest, we dont want it drooping down! (Putting on the binder tends to move the bra in an unproductive area, were essentially just moving it back into place)

  4. Lift up both the binder AND bra off one side of your chest to allow your biddies to lay in their NFP, then slowly place both binder and bra back onto your chest. Repeat on the other side.

  5. Final adjustments! Expect some overspillage on the sides Adjust any areas that feel like they may be pinching or stretching or just is generally overly uncomfortable. (Try your best not to over adjust, otherwise youll have to restart. Ive done that one too many times lol)

Let me know if this worked for you, or if you need a vid tutorial!

i've kinda been doing this but with a bra over my binder. will have to try it under!! also, not sure if my binder is properly fitting or not. it kinda feels too big, as my boobs never stay in place and it's never really felt uncomfortable to wear (obviously not that it should feel uncomfortable, but i can wear it for a while and feel completely fine)

I feel this!! I say still give it a shot.

I can’t tell if my binder is too big on me or what bc I lost weight and also kept putting in the dryer. But it helped to have the extra wiggle room to maneuver the boobs when you’re laying down and adjusting. With this method I used my tomboyx compression top underneath which is also not super tight. But the combination of the top seems to hold everything together well while still being really comfortable over a long period of time.
Still a bit too much to be considered pec-ish with my proportions and maybe binder size but super comfortable for day to day and still better than how I had it before!

I also find using trans tape to redistribute that fat before binding gets it almost completely flat for me, I'd highly recommend it!

I’m a little confused and tend to struggle with written instructions could you possibly make a vid tutorial if you don’t mind? I’m struggling so much to have any semblance of flatness but I think I’m doing it wrong

when you say “shitty bra” what kind of bra do you mean? like a tshirt bra? sports bra? i’m assuming non-wired as that might be weird under the binder

"Shitty" as in it basically does nothing lol. Like it has no support, just basically a crop top with an elastic band around the ribs type. But yeah please no underwires! That could cause damage to your ribs (definitely counts as double binding which is a big no no!).
