After years of wearing two sports bras (even before it was cool to do so), I have finally found ONE that is amazing!

I went to ****'s Sporting Goods yesterday and tried on - no lie - 20 bras. I jumped around in each. It's amazing how ineffective most of them are for larger boobs.

Anyway, I found one from a company called Moving Comfort. It was $38 and for the first time EVER I can do cardio (turbo Fire, running, etc.) wearing only ONE bra! It's well worth the money to save the twins.

Just thought I'd share...Do any of you have recommendations?

    Ha ha....MFP bleeped out the name of (short for Richard) the sporting goods store! I hate the name too but they must have thought I was being vulgar. Hey, why can we say boobs but not D1(K? :D

    I know!!! I have Moving Comfort Fiona for running. It is the one I recommend all the time. I stumbled across it almost by accident and it is the best bra I have ever bought. I just posted the same thing regarding double/tripling bras - so not necessary.

    3DogsRunning: Isn't it amazing that companies like Reebok, Nike, Champion, and even Under Armor couldn't give us a product that worked? I'm ecstatic!

    P.S. Ha ha....he's snoring behind me. So CUTE!!

    www.lindasonline.com has a great selection of larger bras including sports bras! I've never ordered from there but it looks fabulous!

    I have one from Bravissimo I love but wil lcheck out the others mentioned. I'm a 36H or something like that. I lose it in the boobs first so it fluctuates a bit. :) I can order Bravissimo online and they FIT. Good for swimsuits too -- swimsuits that can handle waterslides even! LMAO.

    My Moving Comfort Fiona has been a blessing! I love that bra!! I've actually lost so much that I need to get a new one now - yay!!

    The only one that I found that works is the Under Armour Endure w/zipper front (small - D cup). I will have to check out Moving Comfort.

    Triumph Tri-action does it for me (34DD), but before that I would always buy Shock absorber. Try Less Bounce online

    This what I have for running (36DD), and it's perfect. Keeps me in place really well, without feeling that I'm being squished so hard they're coming out of my back!

    For circuits, I have one of these

    http://www.shockabsorber.co.uk/home/products/sportsbras/supportlevel4.htm

    ...again, it's perfect for me. I've actually never tried any other brand of sports bra, so I have no idea how SA compares to others.

    Has anyone used Anita running bras? My local triathlon store is now stocking them - just wondering what they are like.

    I ama 34 GG, the best place to go for larger size bras is www.bravissimo.com, I get all my bras there and find the freya active underwired bra is the best. Good luck in finding the best one for you

    I wont use anything apart from shock absorber now.
    Treated myself to a new one last week.
    Brilliant.

    I have a shock absorber and it works! I have also heard about the Enell bras but they cost more. Oprah recommended this one.

    I haven't tried that one! There was just another post about this... I had written there too.
    I bought several Champion sports bras lately that are really nice. I also (based on the posts I read last night) bought a Danksin high impact one today and I like it:

    I'll definitely check out these other ones. I passed by this section without looking the last time I was at D!cks Sporting goods.

    For UK people, I can't recommend this one highly enough. It's not the most attractive, but I've had it for over a year now and it's fantastic:

    Not sure if it's an older design now, though - I bought it from JJB Sports and they have lots by the same brand but not that colour.

    Edit: Ah yes, just noticed some others have already mentioned the brand. Checked their official site and it's blue now, I think.

    I have a moving comfort bra that is wonderfully supportive. But, the hooks are not well secured and its already falling apart after less than a year.

    This is great! I'm a (36)D cup and I need a new bra because as i've been losing my band size has become a bit loose. I can't wait to check some of these places out!

    The husband doesnt understand why I hate running and why I can't find cheap comfy bras for it ... it hurts the girls! Im glad Im not the only one with this problem! Im a 42DDD - that's what fits anyways lol I was told by Lane Bryant that Im in the G's or some random letter like that but I was swimmin in it when I tried it on. I will have to suck it up and spend more money on a good bra now! Thanks for the tips!

    I am a 38DD and really don't have a problem with the girls and running. I have two sportbras and they work well. I just hate how big they are in general. It is uncomfortable to NOT wear a bra in general (even while sleeping)! I wish they would shrink to a C!

    I'm a J cup and haven't yet managed to find one in my size so when I go to the gym I'm forced to just wear 2 bras to try and hold the gals in place :-(

    If anyone knows of any [decent ones] out there that go up to a 42J then I'd be grateful, otherwise I guess I'll just have to wait until I lose more weight. When I lost weight 6-7 years back I did go down to about a 36H and managed to find one to fit then, though to be fair it was still pretty rubbish in terms of support.

    Seems ridiculous that those of us with big b00bs that really need the support, find it so difficult to find!!

    I love my shock absorber. I live in Canada, but ordered it from here http://www.bravissimo.com/products/lingerie/sports-bras/#/1?show=16&sort=1 . It was way cheaper then buying locally. They're on sale this month, and have a great return policy.
