Sports Bras

lriffey

Any other "blessed" ladies out there have any good suggestions for a good sports bra. I have tried several and so far I can not find one that works. Thanks!

Blessed?
I think you meant cursed.


I wear 3 bra's to strap my heaving bosom in place... I'd be interested in suggestions too.

I get mine from Lululemon. I have a friend who worked there that was also large chested and introduced me to them. Had mine for 2 years and they will work great. Worth the investment.

I used to wear 2 at a time, but i have found under armour to be a great brand so far

I have found some really great ones at Champion.com. They usually have a $19.99 sale once a year and that's when I stock up because the regular prices are about $50 each. I'm a 38D and I hardly have any bounce!!

Great Question! I need to know this too!

Shock Absorber - worth every penny

Right now I wear 2 sports bras and a tight work out shirt and a tee shirt. It makes my chest look almost deformed and I find it embarassing when I go to the gym. Thanks for the suggestions. I will give those a try!

Champion sports bras from target are ok, unfortunately i find that i sweat more in a sports bra but they are more comfortable to work out in than a regular bra. i wish I didnt have huge breasts, they hurt when I walk or run as they are so heavy, im at that point where they probably (hopefully) wont grow anymore but when I lay on my back, they actually press down on my chest and I find it hard to breathe, they suck!

Can't vouch for these personally as I'm a male but I saw this on another message board in relation to using physics equations in Flash programming. Anyway - NOT SAFE FOR WORK - but it may be a good sports bra.

Heyoo, 34DD Ironman triathlete here. I train 7 days, running up to 40 miles and biking up to 300 a week, so ...consider myself to have extensive personal knowledge of "the bounce" here

I used to strap mine down in multiple bras plus my lycra kit, and could hardly breathe with all the straps around my rib cage!
Then I found CW-X. http://cw-x.com/ExploreProducts.aspx?gender=womens&product=bras

The CW-X XTRA Support Sports Bra has a hook in the back which makes it easier to squeeze on and off.
I prefer the CW-X Firm Support Bra for competition or to wear under any top that requires a smoother line.
There are lots of different fit options for larger v. smaller ladies, for high and low-impact needs.

ABSOLUTELY worth the money. Take care of "the girls!"

I have 28 E's. I have been using a Speedo bra. It is wonderful.

yep.....I wear a good supportive bra and then put a snug sports bra over to mush them closer to me so they don't bounce around...that hurts

I bought one at ****s Sporting Goods years back - its heavy duty and even underwired. Its COMFY. I believe I saw it on Oprah. I am a 36DD and it works FABULOUS. Its very similar to the link, but not exactly the same. I bought it yrs ago and its still going strong!

Bumping for later. Thanks girls for the info

I'm a 36/38dd in my forties so max lift and lockdown are paramount. I have two favorite underwire bras - I like the Champion Powerback - it's a racerback. I hate bra straps showing in my racer back tanks. I also like the Donna Karan 35137 which is a normal back bra. I don't run so I can't give you insight into whether they chafe. If you are a runner, I've had several people mention to me they like Moving Comfort Fiona and Juno bras. I'm a cheapo so I buy my bras of Amazon or eBay. When I don't feel like wearing an underwire bra, I really like Lululemon's All Sport bra. (I'm a fan of all their clothing and it's the only thing I wear to sweat in).

Enell....but they are pricey

KerriLynn828

I also use Enell... They are a little expensive, but oh so worth it! I'm a 42DD and it hold the girls and everything else in place. I wouldn't trade it for anything when working out!

*Bump* and *Bump* ~one for each of my girls :laugh:

I've got a few sports bras but my favourite - by far - is the Shock Absorber one designed for running. It keeps the ladies from bouncing around much (I'm a 28f/30e), without feeling like it's squashing my ribcage. Easily adjustable, looks okay and it's really comfy too - some bright spark put plenty of padding under all the hooks. The top clasp is a bit fiddly but if I can mange it, most people probably can

Thanks everyone! I got my list... now on to shop!
