    I used to have an awesome tank bra from RRS, but I don't remember where I got it and can't seem to find any like it. I make do with my everyday bra, which is a Bali Satin Tracings minimizer. NOT good for aerobics or running, but seems okay for walking and weight-lifting.

    I've always just bought a regular sport bra one size too small. Really cram 'em in there... but, it's not uncomfortable and they stay put when I run!

    I do the same thing! I also double up for more support sometimes when my bra's aren't that supportive.

    Moving Comfort. You can get a lot of them at Title 9 (they are expensive but will let you exchange and they rate the bras by how supportive they are for different sized assets) or on Amazon.

    I just use my regular bra for generally exercising. I have bought just recently but haven't had a chance to use them yet some Danskin sports bras for when I do my Zumba and more strenous activities.

    I just double bag them...wear my regular bra with a tight (one size smaller) sports bra over it.

    I do something like this.
    Or I'll wear a sports bra with a top-with-built-in-bra over it.

    Wacoal has an amazing sports bra!! (at Dillards) it is a little pricey but SO worth it!! I am a G/H and it works so well for me when I run (ok used to run, currently injured). Spend the money on a good bra! I didn't love the Moving Comfort (didn't work my size, may for you), hated the Enell (felt like I was being smothered). I also liked the Champion underwire bra (at Dillards)

    Basically, you are going to just have to try a bunch of different bras. and find one that works for you. And honestly your boobs are worth the money!!

    Good luck!

    Pretty much this. I love my Wacoal. Enell felt SO weird. Nothing else even comes close to passing my jumping test in the dressing room (jumping up and down and spinning, waving my hands in the air while wiggling around like a dolphin)... I have DD-DDD and they stay put. I love that they have an underwire, but it's on the outer layer where I don't even notice it. I've been known to wear it all day when it's clean. For running I get some chaffing but I keep my phone in my bra, so that's probably why.

    I'm double cup size= double annoying *_*.... I always pop out of place n too much jiggle!! Lol. That means a few bras for me... I'm cheap. I have to double up bras and wear them at the same time. That's what I have to do until I can afford an expensive bra for large boobs that keeps them in place. Doesn't stop the bounce and all that but is a bit better. :frown:

    I get my sports bras from Lane Bryant, and usually when they have the BOGO or BOGO 1/2 off sales (right now they are buy 2 get 2 free). They are the only ones I was able to actually try on locally that fit and do the job. I love them. I also love that on the back closure ones I get there is are little adjustable side hooks so as I am getting smaller but my breasts not really going down much, the bra's are still fitting me the way they should and I'm not wasting a bunch of money as my size changes on the band part but not on the cup part. I do, however, remove the pads (which are supposed to be removed when washed) that go into the bra because they annoyed me and made my breasts look funny.

    Specifically the ones I get are:
    Back closure - Racerback sports bra by Marika Miracles®
    Front closure - Microfiber front closure molded sports bra

    Thank you ladies (and gentleman) within the last year, I went from a DD to E, down to C, and back to DD... so using current bras wouldn't work since I need to replace them all. I'll check out some of the suggestions, thanks all <3

    Lulu Lemon's Tata Tamer! It really is THE BEST! It's pricey but so worth it, I never felt comfortable running till I got one.

    I love the name of this one!!!

    It really isn't for properly big boobs though. Only goes to a 38D
