in Fitness and Exercise
One of my biggest challenges about getting good exercise is that I can't find a sports bra that will fit me! Does anyone know of a website/catalogue/specialty store that sells good sports bras for busty women (way beyond DD!)?????

Help!

    I am a 36F and what I did was bought a low impact and a high impact sports bra from Walmart and I wear them both at the same time. 1 sports bra alone just isn't strong enough to hold my big ole' boobies in place. I think I bought size 2X (they didn't go by cup size). Good Luck!

    I haven't had any luck either and it doesn't help that the web gives me three different possible cup sizes for the same exact measurements. I wear tight shirts to help support them for now, I hope when I lose weight I'll be able to fit in the "one size fits all" sports bras.

    Try JC Penney. I found a really nice one and it even zips in the front which I love. I am also at least a D.

    I pretty much just use two at once.... seems to cut back the issue, but when they are big, there's just not a good enough way to tame them down.

    Here you go: http://www.biggerbras.com/freya-big-cup-bras-swim/freya-active-soft-cup-sports-bra-aa4391.shtml

    There's more on the site of course but be forewarned they aren't cheap. My friend gets hers from here.

    I was in the same situation until I went to the outlet mall yesterday. I am a 40DD and I bought one from Reebok that is fabulous. I felt like a fool trying them on since I was jumping up and down in the fitting room but I needed to know. I also found that they run a bit big. I tried the 2x on and it was actually to big for me so I got the XL and tonight doing my exercise I didnt bounce. Tomorrow I am going to try running since my husband, daughter and I want to train for a 5K all together!!

    Add me if you want to know how it goes!!

    Good luck! Oh and always try them on or you will end up buying them and not being able to wear them!

    I double up on sports bras too. Seems to work well for me and cheap too.

    I double up too..I've heard of gals using three, I think that would make me claustraphobic! Two does the trick for me.

    I am a 40 DDD. And I got the most fabulous sports bra at Lane Bryant. The girls are in there nice and snug, no bouncing. It wear like a regular bra, so you could put a light weight sports bra (The fruit of the loom sports bras at walmart are good for "looks") and tank top over it. It just doesn't look like a jogging bra you're probably used to. I wear it for walking, Zumba, sports (volleyball, softball), etc. AWESOME SUPPORT!!! I tried to find it on their website, but this particular style is only in the stores. It's all cotton with satin edging, 4 hook closure and NO underwires.

    ETA: It's the Cacique brand. And they will measure you for the correct size.

    Hope this helps!!!

    Try http://www.championusa.com They have a "Bra Finder" that worked very well for me. I'm a 36D and I got the Champion 360° Max Support™ Sports Bra (Style 23565) on clearance for $17.99. No more of that uncomfortable bounce!

    BUMP!!! But just for the record don't waste your time at JC Penney, they will not have what you need if you are past a D cup. Trust me on that, because I am in the same boat you are and my cup is 4 sizes higher and I have not been able to find a strapless bra, let alone a sports bra. I just wear two bras and keep it moving! Good luck.:drinker:

    Haven't tried it myself by Enell are supposed to be the end all be all of sports bras - Oprah's favourite!
    www.enell.com
    I went shopping for a bra last weekend and was thoroughly frustrated by not finding anything over a 38DD. Buying over the internet is tricky with bras but I might have to resort to that.
    Good luck!
