Ladies.... How many sports bras do you own? I have(had) 4, but can never seem to find a clean one. I bought two more on sale at Target today. Hopefully 6 of them, and doing the laundry more consistently will be enough now.

6 seems like way more than necessary, but I guess I do wear them 5-6 times a week...

    I have like 6 I think. I wear them all the time, especially now that I work out regularly. Anywhere from 3-6 times a week, and I don't do laundry more than once a week usually, so I bought enough to tide me over.

    Lol--can you have too many? I have 6 or 7, but my two Moving Comfort ones are my favorites.

    Sometimes I will workout, shower, THEN put a new clean one on (I have a couple of Nike lower impact ones that are perfect for Saturday errands). I can duck in and out of super-air conditioned stores and not feel self-conscious. :)

    I am doing that often, as well. Wearing a sports bra instead of regular one for day to day errand. ...

    I think I need a meme.....

    Something along the line of...
    "Some ladies have a different pair of shoes for each day of the wee....some have a different sports bra for each day..."

    I have 4 or 5, but only 3 pairs of compression shorts and regular shorts so I usually wear only 3 of them before they get washed. I have my 2 favorite ones so I sometimes will do laundry after wearing both of them so I can wear them again and not one of my other ones.

    A set of 7 sports bras in different styles (racerback, criss-cross), each with the days of the week printed on them!!

    One more thing to add to my list of reason to get an embroidery machine..... Monogrammed Sports Bras!

    I have 6 or 7. Pretty much enough to get through the week. I have a couple shirts that that have low necklines that I like to wear. Usually I wear one of my nicer sports bra underneath instead of a tank top (tank tops always ride up when there's another shirt over them). I want to get a few more in fun colors, since almost all of them are black.

    About 7. I used to need all of them when I ran on non-lifting days, and now I just have the luxury of choice :)

    Two. Fiona by Moving Comfort. I wash a load everyday so it works for me. Thinking about buying a front closure by Moving Comfort. Sometimes I'm so sweaty it feels like I'm going to break my arms unlatching the back strap.

    This year I have discovered camisoles with built- in shelf bras. I wear them a lot and look pretty good despite being a D cup. I credit Stronglifts with being able to go braless.

    I have 2 that fit well and I really like, otherwise I use my swimming costumes (have 2 of those as well) as an undergarment (pretty supportive!)

    two majorly supportive shock absorber ones which means they come up almost to my neck, so show above whatever top I wear to the gym (as you can see in my most recent progress photos it's sneaking above the top even before I left for the gym!). one is always in the wash..

    I don't really use sports bras. :ohwell: I have several older bras that have been deemed no good for general use, so I use those and then wear a compression tank with a built-in bra (I have a whole bunch of these) and then a regular tank on top. All about the layers!

    I've got about 5 sports bras, maybe more. I don't use some (my boobies are too big for a couple I bought online) and repeatedly use the rest. If I don't sweat much, I go back for a second wear before popping them in the sports wash basket. The sports wash cycle goes once or twice a week. My partner cycles a lot and is a bit pongier than me, so the sports cycle is longer and hotter than our normal every day wash cycle. I keep meaning to throw out a couple of older bras, but forget and then wash them. I couldn't possibly throw them out clean, so the cycle continues!!

    I have 4 good sports bras and then two other bras that I can wear for non bouncy activities. It isn't enough because the sports bras were so expensive I don't feel that I can throw them in the dryer so it is a trick to make sure I have a dry one at all times. I wear them again if I have to but I would rather not.
