I am a very well endowed woman and I really want to do 30DS but Jillian likes jumping jacks. I need some suggestions for where to get and what kind of bra to get to make Jumping Jacks actually okay. I find this is a huge issue and I don't want my boobs to keep me from really losing weight. Help please!

Thanks in advance!

    Enell Sports Bra. Pricey but totally worth it.

    Another option, though probably not recommended, is what I had to do when I played rugby. I wore three bras sometimes! but perhaps just doubling up the sports bras may help a little.

    Try Bravissimo or Figleaves. I swear by Bravissimo. Their sports bras are about £30 - £35 apiece but at my largest (about 36F) and now (34DD/E) they've always been fantastically comfortable and supportive (plus they last for ages).

    Try Under Armour bras! I live in Canada and get them at Sportschek for about $50

    Enell!! Enell!! Enell!!!!!!!!

    Its becoming less of an issue (FINALLY, thank GAWD) but I had a helluva time running with the ladies before I lost a significant amount of weight. I was a 38DDDD when I started out.

    Enell is TOTALLY worth the investment. They hold up for a long time too, I've had mine for 2 1/2 years and its the only sports bra I've owned in that time. And I use it maybe 5 days a week. Also dries quick and has silver sewn into it so it never stinks.

    I got the "TaTa Tamer" (Yes, that's actually what it's called!!!) from Lululemon and it's AMAZING!!! I too was having trouble with the jumping jacks because of the same reason. I love it! It was a little pricey (about $55) but it was well worth every penny! Good luck!

    i have a Kmart bra! i've spent heaps of money on different sports bras for my 36fs, and the Kmart ones (for me) are good. the one i have has an extra hook halfway down the strap that hooks onto a loop on the other side- really tightens things up, but i need help to do that bit. they are $25 (new zealand), but because my size has changed it is easy on the pocket too to go and get a new one.
    but regardless of what bra i wear, i ALWAYS wear another one on top- i usually go for a tight crop top just to squish the girls down more and prevent jiggle. and sometimes i'll even wear another tight top over that.
    that's what works for me :-)

    So I'm not very lucky in this dept. but I have some friends that are and the suggestion I hear the most is to get a one piece swimsuit too small and wear bra on top.

    I need to buy a really good sports bra also! I've also heard of one call "The Last Resort" thats you can buy online and is supposed to be pretty good. I had to laugh at your post, 'cuz I've had the same issue with 30DS. But, even more so - I also have a LOT of extra belly skin and bits were flying everywhere whenever I'd workout with Jillian. I kept trying different things to get something to work. The closest thing I've found that works for me - regular bra, sports bra, spanx (the ones that go from your knees to just below the girls). And, I pull the spanx all the way up over the girls to hold 'em down even more. It makes the jumping jacks, high knees and butt kicks bearable!!

    I dunno how big your girls are but I am a 36DD and I wear 2 bras, I wear a regular bra and a sports bra may sound weird but it keeps them in place :)

    I had to do this, I bought some fruit of the loom ones from wal-mart and had to wear a couple at first because my girls hurt terribly when I was finished bouncing around
