    I'm a 30DD. Love the energy bra from Lulu. It's rated as low/medium support, but I can run with no bounce.

    Another fan of the Enell here. I'm an F/G cup. It's not pretty but it does the job!

    I think this website will probably censor the name of the store...

    But I am a 32DDD and I go to ****'s Sporting Goods and just try on what they've got available. I haven't got any complaints about the Reebok, Nike, and Under Armour ones that I have bought. They are not expensive compared to many other brands.

    ETA: It's hilarious to me that they censor the name of the freakin' store...cause the name of a store is sooooooo offensive.

    I'm not a DD (I'm about a 30H at the moment), but as the cup sizes go up as the band size go down we might not be that different in terms of actual boob size at the moment. I think people don't always realise that there isn't such a thing as a DD cup, except with a band size to go with it. So your 40DD is roughly the same size in the cup as a 44B or a 34G. Knowing this helped me a lot in understanding bra sizing. I'm mentioning it because you asked for DD girls, but obviously somebody who is a 32DD will have a relatively small bust compared to you, whereas somebody who is a 48DD will be much bigger, and so they will have different needs and recommendations in sports bras.

    And as somebody else said above, it's always worth checking that you have the right size, and as a rule, your band size is the measurement around your underbust. I think some people are told that they're, say, a 40DD, when in fact they are more like a 36F.

    I've found that Freya Underwired and Panache sports bras work well for me. They don't eliminate bounce, but they are quite comfortable. Enell did not work for me - too loose around the band, too tight in the bust - but it might work for you. Enell is more of a squash you all in close to the chest type bra (so should work well for bounce), whereas Freya and Panache feel a bit more like everyday bras and Panache in particular looks quite nice under clothes, in my opinion.
  • I'm a 32 DD and I buy my sports bras at jcpenney they are always cheap $5-$20 they hold me in really well but I also recommend buying a workout top that is tighter fitting bc that will help as well

    I'm 34dd and use the Anota Extreme Control bra. It is perfect, really comfortable and keeps everything in place. Quite expensive (£40) but worth it.

    That should have said Anita not Anota!

    Shock absorber is the best I've used. I get the max one. Nothing moves in that puppy. I'm a uk gg /h.

    Moving Comfort was great. Shock Absorber is my runner-up. I'm a 34G these days.

    I just like to double up with a regular bra and a champion sports bra. I keep it simple and cheep. The girls stay high and flat works for me.

    I just bought one of these off of Amazon. So far it passes the jumping up and down in front of the mirror test, though I'll have to give it a real workout later this week. Band is super tight, but hey, it'll stretch. And I like the padded straps.

    i use Convertible underwire sport bra by Cacique from Lane Bryant, I love them but I wear them out quicker than I would like the underwire comes out. On sale I can get them for 14 or so but they are reg priced 45.

    I'm a 34dd and the under armour ones work well for me for running.

    Nike makes some great ones I get them off of the nike website , and surprisingly enough champion sports bras work great (from target) but I wear a regular bra and then a sports bra over.

    I love this one by Victoria's Secret!

    I was using some of the medium support Under Armour and VS sports bras, but Zumba and jogging was causing some pain in the chest! I picked up a few of these bras, and the issue is totally under control! I am a 36D and they have great support (zero bounce!)

    I'm 34 DD/ 32E depending on bra ... I have to double up, normal bra then a sports bra that is a little smaller over the top to basically strap them down, even then they move,

    Hubby thinks it's funny watching me run on the treadmill holding them, but I'd prefer to keep them above my waist for a while yet!!!

    Odd as it may seem, I get mine at the Maternity store, they fit great and support well. I'm also a 40DD, in some bras... in other I can be a DDD and others I might be a 38... I hate bra shopping, since I apparently am right in the middle of too many sizes, every bra I try on I have to bring in 4 different sizes of. But at the Maternity store, it took one bra tried on and it was perfect.

    I just purchased one on a friends recommendation and I LOVE THIS BRA!! I use the Sport bra for running right now and I'm wanting to get the Sport Lite for every day.

    I am about the same size as you are and this bra is so comfortable, I didn't want to take it off and put on any of my old bras!

    I found out that you can buy "factory imperfections" on ebay for nearly half the price which will be where I buy my second and third. I cant WAIT to throw away all my regular bras and replace them with the Enell Lite Sport!!!!

    THIS...I have an Enell and it is like Fort Knox for your girls.
