    I'm a DD36 and love Jillian michaels dvd's she does use jumping jacks and some other plyometrics, but you can substitute the jumps for another cardio moves. plus I have a shock absorber sports bra. love it!! very supportive and not too constricting at all. I also heard Moving comfort makes a great bra too.

    Not a really good one if you have large breast...I spent 150$ for a proper bra :/ You can always double up sports bras but it gets uncomfrotable


    I agree with the "Walk away the pounds" DVD's...free on youtube or super cheap at walmart

    I'm in the same boat as you. I'm very large chested, and like you, I'm on a tight budget. I can't afford fancy sports bras. I can only rely on my two genie bras. It actually does help. I wear two at a time when I'm working out. I don't if you can afford to buy them, but they're like 20 bucks at rite aid or walgreens.
    I use fitnessblender on youtube and I LOVE it. Their videos are pretty easy follow, and I like how they don't use music in the background. It's all very simple, so I can really focus on my workout.

    They have a large variety of workouts. some are low impact, which I tend to stick to.

    Leslie Sansone's Five Really Big Miles! You won't regret it. You can choose to walk at a brisk pace or boost a bit whenever you do invest in that sports bra. I'm a DDD, but I love to boost, so I wear a good bra and a cheap sports bra while I workout and it usually does the trick. My daughter's a G and the double bra trick doesn't work as well for her so I understand. Just give the Leslie Sansone workouts a try.

    another vote for more than one bra. for me, i do a basic cotton bra, a plain inexpensive sports bra over that, then a "compression" tank over that (can definitely find this kind of workout-tank at target). I usually put a regular, loose fitting top over that.

    I use a minimizer style bra, your basic Playtex, no under wire but lots of firm spandex!

    fitnessblender.com has a number of workouts that are challenging without being overly jump oriented (or the jumping is a small enough part that modifying does not totally nerf the workout).

    Wearing a supportive underwire bra topped with a cheapy sports bra also helps surprisingly much.

    I was going to say the same thing- I love fitnessblender.com!! Check out the low impact workouts. All the videos are free and you can search by length, intensity, equipment needed (most need none or dumbbells).

    I'm *only* a D but I used to wear two sports bras (or one and a compression tank) until I bought a really good sports bra from Sports Basement. Check the clearance racks- I got mine for $20. When you can afford it, Moving Comfort makes really good sports bras that come in bra sizes based on measurements rather than just S M L XL. IMO, it's worth it to find the money for a good bra. :)
