Sports Bras for Big Busts
"Help! Running Gives Me Black Eyes!
Sports bras for big busts are definitely worth their weight in gold.
Why? Because 'D' sized breasts can bounce an average of 4.5 inches when running! Ouch!
We spend about as much time going up as moving forward.
I have long given up on horse back riding, running stairs, and hop-scotching.
There are many things that our smaller sized sisters take for granted. Being able to exercise without wearing three bras and duct tape for added measure is one of them.
Is there anything out there that can contain the bounce?
Yes!
Bouncing during exercise is not only embarrassing and annoying, but did you know that excessive bouncing can cause long lasting health effects?
Our breasts are held up by something called Cooper's Ligament. If this ligament gets stretched out it can cause your chest to sag. Bouncing can also lead to stretch marks and chaffing.
Aside from exercising,
large breasts can cause health problems.
There are several companies that are finally making high impact bras for big busts that work excellent during exercise, but before I mention specific brands, lets take a minute and talk about what to look to look for.
What to Look For
1. Don't buy one that you have to pull on over your head. For one thing they're embarrassing to try to put on and secondly they will not offer you the support you need.
If it's stretchy enough to pull on over your head then it's definitely not tight enough to hold you close. Look for a one that hooks in the front or the back.
Lock and Load baby!
2. It needs to be the right size to keep you held in tight. They tend to run smaller in size in order to do this.
Invest the time to find the right sized bra.
3. Look for material that wicks away moisture. Nylon works great for this. Also the material that makes up your bra should not be stretchy. Try stretching it with your hands. Look for strong fabric.
4. A good sports bra for big busts will probably be ugly. The uglier the better. You're not trying to win beauty contests here, so it's okay.
It needs to have lots of re-enforced fabric, extra wide bands, and full coverage cups. No one will see it anyway, but they will notice you if you have to run with your hands supporting your chest. That looks funny.
Sports Bras You should Try!
There's a lot out there to choose from. Now that you have some knowledge about what makes a good sports bra, you should have no trouble finding one that will work for you. If you're looking for a couple ideas I will recommend two.
1. Enell sports bra
2. Support Level 4 D+ sports bra
The Enell Sports Bra will support you better than any duct tape ever could, and it's a lot easier to take off. (less painful too) It hooks in the front and has extra reinforced straps in the back.And comes in 7 colors If you don't believe me, you can take Oprah's word for it. She loves this bra. You can find them for around $50.00.
Visit Figleaves.com to buy this bra
The Shock Absorber Support Level D+ runs up to size G cup. It will reduce movement up to %74. It fastens in the back. It's cheaper than the Enell, running about $26.00. Nearly every woman that has tried this bra has absolutely loved it. A few complain that it can be a little bit uncomfortable if worn longer than 3 hours. I don't know about you but I'm only good for about an hour of exercising and then I'm beat. 3 hours would kill me.
