Not that I am excluding chicks with smaller boobs from answering if you have a suggestion but...what are the best "support" sports bras???

Being 38DD and trying to do jumping jacks with Jillian is miserable with the ones I have now!

    I can't recommend this one highly enough.

    I'm 38DDD and would love to know this also! I haven't been able to find a "wire-less" sports bra in my size...even at all the specialty stores. Bumping incase someone has a miracle bra! =)

    Great question.. I need to know too. I am on day 6 of 30 day S and am a size 40 E. I don't know how i haven't got two black eyes yet!!! the jumping jacks are seriously dangerous right now.

    Am in UK so any Uk stockists would be great.

    When I lose a little more I plan to get measured at a specialty store and really invest, but for cheap ones to tide me over until me/the girls shrink a little, I found some at Wal-Mart...they have a huge selection, surprisingly, or Jockey ones and almost every one was too small, but I finally found an XXL that fit just barely too snug and bought two of those.

    I'm more like a 38DDD, so you should have some luck there.

    Don't bother with Target...their sports bras are totally made for someone who wants to look cute with matching workout clothes, not for someone with actual breasts.

    Unfortunately, I've found that wireless bras are useless for me and exercise. Therefore I have to spend extra $$ on Wacoal sport bras. They're really good. I got sized at Nordstrom but only bought one pair--found more on eBay, and for much cheaper.

    Duct tape seems to hold them in place.

    I double bag the girls. Regular bra and sports bra. Even then too many jacks can be painful, but it helps.

    Bravissimo.com

    I'm a 36H (or 36DDDDD) and I can RUN in mine. It's wireless and I bought it in the UK. Bravissimo should be available in the US as well.

    Not cheap ($40-$60) but well worth it...

    Shock Absorber Women's Extreme Support Sports Bra Top

    I bought mine at Amazon and I'm a 40F!

    Oh and outer sports bras (you know the uniboob ones?) do not work for me. I don't think they work well for anyone D and above personally. Mine is a bra meant to go under clothes during physical exercise.

    I double up my wireless Champion sports bras from Costco, but I'm not doing any jumping jacks:) 2 pack for $25 bucks and I just bought 4 packages so I'm not doing laundry every day. I don't think there's any perfect answer, but when I worked in lingerie at Nordstrom years ago, there were a few expensive sports bras that fit my 32DDD. (Not that small anymore:()

    I highly recommend a professional fitting by Nordstrom, they're trained extensively in everything from A cup to DDD and anything in between. Having the right sized bra changed my whole outlook on my body curves.

    Agree. Try layering a sports bra over your regular bra, or even wearing several sports bras together to suppress the jiggle. Wal-mart has great prices on sports bras that are easy to layer (Fruit of the Loom ones come to mind).

    I'm only a 36C, but I use a swimsuit (with a built in bra) as a leotard. As an added plus, I can take off my work out clothes, hit the shower then the pool/hot tub/ sauna right after a workout as my "reward" for getting to the health club. If I were any bigger, I would use additional support, but that seems to work for me.

    While I am NOT a 38-DD, my good fiend is and know that she wears 2, yes 2 sports bras everytime we work out. Good luck! I know the trouble I had finding a good one just being a 38-C.

    I was a 38DDD and have had good luck with the Champion powersleek back-close sports bra from justmysize . com. I don't like the ones that don't hook in the back.

    I'm a 30F and I use a Shock Absorber MAX Sports Bra Top (Support Level 4):
    http://www.shockabsorber.co.uk/home/products/sportsbras/index.htm
    Works great for me! I also sleep in it sometimes, I actually find it really comfortable & very supportive. It also works as kind of a minimiser under t-shirts if you wanted that.

    I have an older version of the other level 4 one and it's definitely not as good. At least, I think it's an older version, doesn't look like any of the other ones on the site. It's very...pointy, haha.

    I HATE the ones that go over your head cuz they bunch up and are a pain the butt! I thought that was the only way they made sports bras :P

    I am a 32 G/GG and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bra that I get from Bravissimo (in the UK.....)
    http://www.bravissimo.com/products/lingerie/sports-bras/max-sports-bra-top/red-blue/be53rb/?show=16&sort=1&level=1

    They are AWESOME on customer service for those who are in the US. Yes they are a little pricey BUT at my size, ANYTHING that is both cute AND functional is a plus. I get my regular, everyday bras from them too. I can't say enough how much I love them.....

    Shock Absorber and Enell are supposed to be the best for DD and up. Moving Comfort is supposed to be good too, but I personally couldn't get a good fit with what I tried on at ****'s.

    I've heard that wearing two bras can push your breast tissue downward too much and stretch it out, but I don't know how true that is. I will wear a sports bra and a shelf bra tank together, but the shelf bras aren't supportive, as all of us more endowed girls know!
