    I don't know much about bra sizes, but my wife is a larger breasted woman that goes to Target to get her sports bras.

    :laugh: I love this. Nobody beyond a D can get anything at a Target sweetie. What you consider large and what these ladies are talking about are very different. ;)

    I got a sports bra from Target just a couple weeks ago and it quickly became my fav!!! I love it and it was cheap :)

    I bought stuff online and they turned out to be nothing but little cotton things that wouldn't hold anything up when I was standing still so running was not fun :( I had given up hope.
    I read about the Armour Bra but it wasn't big enough for me (seriously they tout that it's so great for support and it only goes to a D?!) I've also heard good things about the Tata Tamer at Lululemon but they were out of my size so I didn't get to try it :(
    I ended up at the Running Room and got one that I guess is called the Shock Absorber (that's what it says on the front and I've cut all the tags off.) I was blown away when I tried it on and jumped up and down and the girls didn't move at all PLUS they had it in my size which is a 36F and impossible to find in a normal bra.

    I have 38F and nothing holds the girls down like Enell www.enell.com They are a bit pricey as priced over $60, but they hold up for a very long time. Not to mention I can run, jump, roll around and everything without risking pain or discomfort.

    I also purchased in the past 4 of them off of ebay. They are 'irregular' but you would never know it. What makes it 'irregular' is the ribcage measurement is a tad bit off, so it's a bit tight underthere. But, still $30-$40 for 2 Enell vs 1 enell wins hands down!

    I'm a DD, and I actually wear a comfortable victoria secret bra underneath my sports bra for extra support and wider coverage. I know it seems extreme, but sports bras kind of squish boobs together, and I think it makes them sore after a workout. The combination of a VS minimizer bra and a regular sports bra seems to do the trick...just a suggestion. :) good luck

    I'm 38F, I use an M&S sports bra. These give me just the right support, firm control, but a little movement so they don't look unnaturally still, but I don't get black eyes anymore. :wink:

    Not sure if they have the size but I know a great one called the Ta Ta Tamer from Lululemon.com

    Loved it, I used mine when I was breastfeeding as my tata's grew quite large. I use it now that they have gone down considerably and it is still just as comfortable. About $60 or so but so worth it!!!

    Once you're over a certain size, two sports bra's seem the way to go, because I've never found one that works by itself to really hold the girls when jogging.

    Bra #1 goes on first (and I normally pick one that is slightly snug) then I put my normal size on top. Works well for me. Good luck.

    You will never regret purchasing Enell. They are more expensive ($50-70), but are more durable. I am a 40G and really struggled with lower back pain with even the slightest activity level. After Enell, that all changed. They really strap them in and keep the strain off of your back. Highly recommend.

    40G here and I RUN!! This bra is the only sports bra I would buy. Don't waste you time on the others.

    I need this for later! I have one sports bra that is OK, just OK. I got it at Kohl's. I haven't been able to find another in any store for a relatively low price, so once cash flow is a little better, I am splurging on a few good sports bras!

    I am a 38E and got mine from JCP last year. It has a zipper up the front and works great. Will look at the Utah site mentioned earlier though. Getting time for a new one.

    I just bought two new sports bras from Barenecessities.com after a ridiculous amount of research. I'm a 36GG, so we are practically the same size (although with your 38H, you have more options than I did...). The two I bought were the Panache 5021 and Shock Absorber B4490. I. Friggin. Love. Them.

    Now, unfortunately for us and our Girls, we have very few options for wire-free sports bras. Underwire sports bras are not uncomfortable, which was my greatest fear, and definitely not the most difficult sports bras I've had to get into. I actually didn't notice the wire once I started to work out.

    The Panache one is my favorite bra. Practically ever. I also have a couple of their regular ones, so I was relieved to see their name associated with a sports bra. The first time I went out walking with the Panache, I decided to do jog sprints. AND IT WAS AWESOME. No ka-thug-ka-thug weight dropping with every step. If there was some movement, it didn't deter me from my sprints. This bra can withstand almost any high impact aerobic without much trouble.

    The Shock Absorber is a really good one as well, but I haven't put it through the ringer yet. I feel really secure in it, though, so I'm sure it'd do a better job than most. I've been kind of obsessed with the Panache, so I can get back to you on this one if you'd like.

    Here's a link for you to aid in your search: http://www.barenecessities.com/38H-Sports-Bras-Bras_catalog_nxs,31,size,997,style,31.htm

    Oh, and the comments women leave on the products are excellent and well informed. I used them in narrowing down my options. Good luck!

    If you're wearing multiple bras and compression tanks and still have movement you're wearing the wrong bras (or the wrong size).

    Please look into some of the other options listed here. The correct bra really is essential. I speak from experience. The year I took up running and lost 50 pounds I was wearing cheap champion bras. They fit OK and would have been fine for light yoga, but my boobs bounced everywhere running and even walking and they haven't looked the same since. I didn't lose a cup size when I lost weight but they are saggier than they ever were and I know a big part of that was not wearing a proper bra.

    Moving Comfort has done wonders for me...
    I HATE sports bra's.... but this one has been great...It keeps the girls in place without smashing me to bits and making me look like I have a uniboob... LOL.
    Very comfortable and very secure. Made running fun for me instead of painful.

    Good luck with your search. Try nany on to get the right fit for you.

    try Essential Bodywear for all your bra needs! They are affordable and they put those twins where they belong and hold them there in the workout bra. These are the only bras I will wear and they last a long time. tried all they others and there is no comparrision.

    Same issue here. I wear a regular bra (that I use only for exercising) with a tight sports bra over it. And sometimes a compression tank with 'build in bra' (HA!) as well. I think the only thing that would prevent excessive bouncing would be duct tape.

    I do this too! But i've been researching better ways! Glad I found this. Maybe one day I can find the perfect bra! :sad:

    Check out Layne Bryant's website and see if there's a store in your area. If there is, I'd recommend going there, because they have a good selection of bras, not only online, but also in-store, and they also will measure you. My mom gets most of my bras and hers at Layne Bryant, and I think they also carry sports bras.
