    Fiona by Moving Comfort is a life saver! I got mine on Amazon. I did one cup size smaller than I actually where and the girls don't move! It is a bit of a wiggle to get it on a cup size smaller, but really worth it!

    I just got the Helena by Moving Comfort too. Works well, but not as great as the Fiona. I heard the Enell and Shock Absorber bras are great too.

    I have this issue as well. I got my sports bra at walmart with a underwire. It seemed to help some. I not really sure what else I can do to strap them down unless I wear one with out the wire over the other one?!?!

    I currently wear two ill-fitting sports bras - both too small. It really does the trick! I plan on shopping for a better fitting bra after I lose a few more pounds. Enell or Shock Absorber are supposed to be good ones.

    LMAO!!! Me too! I bought my sports bra (cheap, b/c I do not plan on being this size long) & wear it over my regular bra for double support...works like a charm! Good luck!

    There are some pretty awesome ones at WalMart right now that I'll be getting on payday. (I have your problem too... lol) I'm blanking the brand name right now, but they're 'sturdier' than most (if you know what I mean) and there's even one style that comes with an underwire... you should go check them out.

    Try looking at titlenine.com or championusa.com-- both have lots of great options! I love the Champion Powersleek bra, but there are many others that are also good, and these sites will help you identify the ones that are best for you.

    I found a good one at Victoria's Secret. You can actually get them by your bra size and they really hold you down! I also have another one that is a different brand that works pretty well, but I will have to check it to see which brand it is..... Honestly, sometimes I have to wear my regular bra under the sports bra to minimize the bouncing while running or doing jumping jacks and cardio.....

    I war 2 bras when running or doing any other cardio exercises. Champion are pretty good and cheap specially when there's a sale. I wear my size on one and the top one a size smaller to hold them in place.

    i have a shock absorber bra (started at 44DD) and would not change it for the world - worth every penny - and sad to have wasted $$ on others before I found this one!

    I have also had issues with working out with a bigger chest. Moving Comfort makes some really great bras, and they have different styles depending on your size and needs (compression, non-compression, very adjustable straps). You should check it out: www.movingcomfort.com. I have the Maia and the Fiona and have been very pleased. Good luck!

    I have a Champion bra that I got at a running store. It's one of the few that has bra sizes, not just SMLXL. It's a little pricy at $40 but well worth it. I love mine :)

    I bought one a zellers, pretty good. But i am using still double bra at the gym. PS if u have big breasts, stay away from the one-piece ones. Opt for ones with underwire and ur cup size.

    www.titlenine.com has fantastic sports bras and every day bras, for all sizes. They are the only company I've found that acknowledges that just because a bra is made in your size, doesn't mean it is effective for your size. The use a barbell rating to tell you what sizes each bra is best for. You'll probably want to search for bras with 4 barbells.

    Me! I'm quite large and I have a couple that work very well for me. I happen to work at Title 9 so I get to try on a lot of bras that they carry. My favorite right now is by CWX, it's called the TMT at Title 9. My other favorites are called the Seven Wonders and Three Reasons, these are both made by Moving Comfort. Here's a link to the online catalog.

    Good luck! It takes a little work to find the right bra, but when it does it makes exercise soooo much better!

    I also wear two. One regular fitting underwire and a smarller sports bra over it. It does the trick. Especially if you don't want to spend a lot of cheese.

    Look for a bra that says it's for high impact work outs. I got one at arie and before that I had a champion one. Might have to drop $30+ on a decent work out bra but it makes a big difference.
