Yes I agree,
finding the perfect fitting sports bra can be difficult but if you know exactly
what type of sports bra you should be looking for it can make your search a lot
easier.
Every women
should have a sports bra in their lingerie collection as you never know when
you might need one, even activities such as walking (mainly long distances) can
require one.
Even though
it is important to wear a sports bra whatever breast size you are, the bigger your
bust the more you will need to wear one as you will need more support.
So why is it
so important to wear a sports bra during physical activities?
During physical
activities a women’s chest moves considerably, probably a lot more than you may
originally think. The breasts generally move in a figure-of-8 pattern which
means they will be moving up and down; left to right and forwards and backwards
and as you can imagine this will not be doing your breasts any favours.
Breast are
made from fatty tissue which is supported by ligaments and these stretch over
time, particularly if you are exercising and not getting the correct support.
Wearing a sports bra cannot eliminate this all together but by wearing
one during physical activity you will help to slow the process down.
Wearing a
sports bra will make you feel so much more comfortable and in turn make you
enjoy the sport you are participating in a lot more.
It is so
important that when you buy a sports bra you make sure you are getting the
correct fit as even if it is slightly too big it won’t be able to give you the
correct support or prevent chest movement.
I would
advise that you find a sports bra that comes in normal bra sizes as this way
you will be able to find a more accurate fit.
There are a
variety of sports bras available and these come with different levels of
support. Below is a guide to show you what kind of impact level bra you will
need for different activities.
Walking,
stretching and yoga.
Dance, skiing
and cycling.
Jogging,
running, power yoga, horse-riding, tennis and netball.
Aerobics and
martial arts.

Shock
Absorber are one of the most popular brands for sports bras. They only sell sportswear
which means all of their bras have been produced with the best material and

I love the
Active Multi Sports Support bra, which is high impact, so you can wear it for
pretty much any sport.
The lightly
padded adjustable straps and high performance, breathable material are designed
to give you comfort and freshness throughout your whole workout. This bra,
which comes in band sizes 28-40 and cup sizes D-H, features two fastenings on
the back (please note the D and DD only feature one fastening), so you won’t
have to have a workout just trying to get the bra on.
