I'm a UK 32F and I used to have the same problem. I do a lot of running so I needed a bra for high impact, and I've been very very happy with the Shock Absorber sports bras. I bounce very little, but I'm comfortable. I tend to go to Bravissimo for all bras, sports included, they're excellent at fitting and advice, but of course that depends where you are.
I recommend Shock Absorber sports bras. ^^0 -
moving comfort holds the ladies down and you can breath:bigsmile:0

Moving Comfort makes great sports bras for well endowed athletes.0

Rather than spend money on expensive sports bras...here is my cheap trick....
I wear my regular, underwire, supportive bra under a cheap cotton sports bra - I've found going down one size on that sports bra than my usual size keeps everything nice and snug.0 -
I find that a high impact sports bra works well for me - that being said, if it's an especially bouncy workout - I will wear 2 of them to keep things under control.
Good luck taming the girls!0 -
I'm the same size and have the same issue - I also don't like compression bras that cause the sweat to ooze between the "ladies" either. *shudder*
I just bought the Anita Women's Extreme Control Sport Bra off of Amazon.com. It should arrive soon and I hope it works for me! For that price, it had better.....0 -
I used to wear two sports bras. I went to a sporting goods store and bought a bra that was for my actual bra size (34D) instead of small/medium/large AND said it was for high impact sports. Try it on first and jump around, etc in the fitting room. Made a huge difference for me and was worth every penny!0

For your size, I'd say get a 34DD in a Moving Comfort Bra. I feel great in them.
This is my current favorite: http://www.roadrunnersports.com/rrs/products/MCL217/?cc=FOP
This one gives you even more support, but is a bit harder to get on and off: http://www.roadrunnersports.com/rrs/products/MCL323/0 -
Yup, I am in on the moving comfort too!
Try "June", I loved that model, even after countless tours in the washing mashine (no dryer) it has the same hold on!0 -
I'm a UK 36FF, and I wear a Shock Absorber bra (the one that used to be plugged by Anna Kournikova). It was a bit pricey, but compared to the cheaper ones I've tried, it's like a Ferrari Enzo versus a pushbike. I find it's good for jumping along with Jillian, and flattens me out a bit for martial arts.
Don't forget to make sure you adjust the straps correctly.0 -
I'm a 34E and currently wear two bras when running, so bump for better options!!!!0
-
Yup - the Fiona sports bra from Moving Comfort is the best thing I've ever bought! And affordable: http://www.movingcomfort.com/Fiona/350003,default,pd.html0

I recommend Enell Sports bras. http://enell.com/
The high impact one allows me to jog without bouncing all over and I'm a 36 H.0 -
thank you everyone. can you still breath with these bras lol I feel like im suffering with a chest infection and cant get my breath just wondering if anyone has had this issue too. lol0

I wear a shock absorber high impact sports bra. My G cups don't move and I breath easily0

Try a larger band size0 -
I wear a 34G and Wacoal has an underwire one that I like for general working out, but if I am running or jumping rope I prefer the Shock Absorber.0

The one I recommended is snug but not too tight. Seriously the best thing ever. I swear by it. It feels wonderful to workout and not think/worry about the girls. I used to wear a regular bra with a sports bra on top and it was the most uncomfortable thing ever. This sports bra saved my workouts!0 -
My favourite is the Panache sports bra, also like the Freya Active bras0

I do something similar. I buy a sports bra one size smaller and I have one of those workout shirts that have a built in bra that I wear over it. The regular bra thing would work...but i only and 3 regular bras so my way works well, keeps the girls pressed flat.0 -
Good luck with finding a solution.
Sadly there's no equivalent for men.0 -
Bump for later, similar problems here!0

^This. That's exactly what I do. No way I can afford any of the others listed here! Yeesh! Just seeing those prices made me cringe big time!0 -
I've used both the Enell line (which are good but on long distance runs can lead to chafing) and currently am using the Freya line. I really like them but am always willing to change it up if I find something superior. A good sports bra is DEFINITELY worth the price you pay for them, I recommend going to a good boutique bra store that specializes in properly fitting bras to get measured and then, once you know your size in the style you want (as it can change between brands) feel free to buy it online afterward. Never assume that your "general" size will be the same as your sports bra size. I'm a 32G normally but both my cup size and band size can vary in different styles of bras.
And remember, your running bra should never see its first birthday!0 -
I am A UK 40G and bought a shock absorber sports bra best thing i ever did no discomfort what so ever now when bouncing round doing classes or running highly recommend if you can get your hands on one0

Debenhams own-make sports bras - im a 36f in them (36ff usually, but one size down keeps em a bit more controlled!!) and they are almost always on sale, around sixteen pounds. Gorgeous by Debenhams. In my opinion, they leave shock absorber and bravissimo in the dust!0

My vote for the Moving Comfort Juno. Sometimes you can get deals on Amazon on certain colors.
I wear the Moving Comfort Fiona for everyday, and the Juno for running and bootcamp etc.0 -

Interesting, as their bras are not that great, will have to keep an eye out for one.0
