    Question: from someone who has a/b cups, is wearing a sports bra necessary? Can I wear a regular bra? I only ask because I absolutely ALWAYS forget to pack one when I got to the gym! It's embarrassing but I just wonder if it's making a difference.

    I personal can't. I'm a 34A/ 32 B and I need a sports bra to keep the girls in place. I get pretty sore otherwise. I would think that even us smaller busted women need the support. and like a previous poster mentioned sports bras are better at moisture wicking.

    OP I us VS Angel sports bras, but as I stated I'm fairly small chested so I'm not sure if they are supportive enough for someone larger than I am. I do highly recommend VS for their sports bras though. They have a huge variety, some with back or even front closure, and they come in a bunch of cute colors.. plus they come in actual bra sizes.

    I'm like a 32b/30c and I feel uncomfortable in a regular bra. One because my tanks are minimal and some cut low under the armpit/back. And two because it's uncomfortable, the wire and the straps. I like them smashed down ha.

    I'm an E cup and have to wear extremely supportive sports bras which are quite pricey. You can't buy cheap sports bras when you are large chested.

    I recommend Shock Absorber and Panache.

    I think someone should invent a sports bra with an hrm built in.

    Seems like a no brainer.

    I don't know how well that would work. What about the daily washing? That would get a little old.

    Could just be a little box that slides into a small pocket on the bra. Kind of like the polar, but with no strap.

    Lululemon Stuff Your Bra. It's supportive, doesn't chafe, has an open back, and has pockets.

    I have had trouble finding a good one myself. Nothing at academy worked for me.

    Hey Doug! Why are you reading the sports bra discussion? Oh, right - you're a guy, LOL! Actually, I think you've got a good idea and I think fitbit and other monitors clip onto the bra. A built in monitor would be a good seller!

    There are some that you can clip the HRM transmitter to. There are even a few you can buy that come with a HRM transmitter.

    Maia has been best support for me so far. Underwire / full coverage / typical sports bra look. 34DD
    (I want to try the Shock Absorber because of the racer back styling -- Amazon has good reviews)

    I have 2 shock absorbers and swear by them.. Im 30EE (naturally) so im looking after what momma gave me lol. Seriously, they bearly move while running. Hope this helps

    Love moving comfort bras and they close in the back with great support. Yes I paid $72/each, but I am in Australia right now, however they are cheaper in the US.

    I have the VS Knockout with the front closure and I may never buy another kind. They're cute and SO comfortable, which is a pretty impossible combination to achieve if you actually have traps.

    Yet another invention someone beat me to.

    I invented the snuggle in like 1994. Decided to go to college instead.

    That worked out well.
