OK so I started jillian michaels 30 day shred yesterday and have found out I need to invest in better sports bras. Jumping jack are not for fat people with big boobs and crappy sports bras. Had to learn the hard way tho I suppose....now to recover.....

    Haha, I apologize for the laugh...I just love what you named your topic! I understand though....and I know that I had a really hard time finding a sport's bra that would fit me correctly. Best of luck =)

    No kidding!!! I learned the hard way too when I was first getting started. More or less, I just hated how bad my girls ached after I attempted a workout without the proper support! This is the right place to find out about sports bras though! :o)

    The gals on Biggest Loser wear the Enell brand and that's what I have. It works wonderfully!

    Try two sports bras. That's what I do, it's made a big difference :).

    Oh my I love this topic..lol I total understand, I had the same thing happen with P90X jumping jacks are a pain in the butt anyway, but when you add in a big chest..Well like it was said before, deadly weapons !! Glad you will recover and good luck with the sport bra..I found one that it feels too small, but holds these bad boys in..lol

    Oh my gosh! I just had to tune into your forum simply because of the name! hahaha


    My advice is to try the victoria secret sports bras... they are built a little more like a bra so they are more supportive and don't give your the grand uniboob!

    I love them!

    Thanks I will try this before I spend big money on a good sports bra...if I can use the ones from walmart it will save me some money!

    i broke my bra when i was in the military doing jumping jacks. i got put on the fat boy program and had to exercise with my company commander and a bunch of men, i was the only female on the program. i had to hold onto my boob to keep it from flashing everyone and do jumping jacks one handed. i have a hard time buying sports bras for me. my boobs are too big and i am too round. i know how you feel about your boobs killing you. i feel for you.
  • I unfortunately do not have that problem... i wish mine were a little larger :(

    I recommend sports bras from target, they are inexpensive but do the job and hold them in. My sister has a large chest and she thinks they are really well made and do the job


    Hope this helps!

    I do the same! I'm not properly proportioned... I got a breast reduction done, and now I'm a D-cup, but that's still pretty big! I end up wearing a minimum of 2 bras if I'm doing cardio. For things like up-and-down jumping, I just hold them!

    Support is SO important. During my surgery, she performed a breast lift and the difference was AMAZING. Don't let your girls sag! :embarassed:

    I'm with ya there too! I'm a 38H! I'm not sure if you're UK or elsewhere based but I found mine at simplyyours.co.uk.. Mine is a Freya sports bra but have noticed a bit more bounce in it recently so I think I may have dropped a size! May try 2 on at the same time like someone suggested!!

    And then invest in a new bra!

    I was given advice that I should double them up,I'm now contemplating on tripling,so off to buy another bra soon. lol

    OH I AM SOOO LOOKING INTO THIS!
  • When I run I have to wear 2. The first one is really tight and the 2nd one is really supportive. It's almost like not having boobs at all! LoL

    Good brand name doesn't mean anything for me. I have Nike ones and it's like they are strictly for fashion, that's why I layer it with a Victoria's Secret one.

    Do what I do - wear a "regular" bra under a tight sports bra. Then wear a workout top with a built-in shelf bra. All in all, you're wearing 3 layers of support, and really only having to buy 1 bra (the workout top and regular bra you probably already have!).

    I'm a 42G and can't find a sports bra big enough that will hold the girls...I know, I know...I just wear my regular bra and hold the girls with my arms (shrug)

    I always wear 2 sports bras when I work out. I bought them both at Target so I didn't spend too much $$$ on them. The first one I put on is seamless because I have actually chaffed so bad from a seam I wore the skin off on the underside. I didn't really feel it until I got in the shower and the water hit it. OUCH!!! The second one really helps control the girls a little better.
