Below you will find some of the articles I have written about sports bras and some other information about sports bras that should help you in your selection.

How to buy the right sports bra

The most important thing when you are choosing a sport bra is bounce control. You don’t want to damage your breasts while you are working out, and ordinary bras just don’t give enough support.

It used to be that it was almost impossible to find a high impact sports bra that actually worked, but things have come a long way since then. Now there are many choices and options to choose from, so you are sure to find a sports bra that will work well for you. Here are my 2 steps that will help you find the right sports bra.

#1. Determine the level of support you need in your sports bra.

The level of support needed will depend on the type of physical activity you are doing. Activities such as running, aerobics, and most cardiovascular activities will require a higher level of support than practices such as yoga, Pilates, or weight lifting.

Some women prefer to go with a high level of support no matter which activity they are doing. This way their workout bras can take them easily from a high impact activity to another. Other women find that a high impact sports bra is too constraining for lower impact activities.

A great bra that transitions well from one sport to the other is the CW-X sports bra. It is one of the top sports bras for running, but is also comfortable enough to wear during lower impact activities.

#2. Understand different cup sizes need different sports bras.

Not only should you gear the sports bra you get to the activity level you have, but you should also consider your cup size. Smaller cup sizes still need support, but often a compression type of bra will work very well at providing good support and minimizing bounce. These types of bras work well for A, B, and sometimes C cups – depending on the exercise you are doing. A good example of this type of bra is the fruit of the loom sports bra.

If the fruit of the loom bra is not supportive enough for you, then Champion bras makes some great mid-level support bras that work well for B, C, and sometimes D cups. These bras offer some of the more advanced features in sports bras, and have a great price point.

A more well-endowed woman will want to consider a bra that offers both compression and separation. This type of bra will give better support. The best rated bra that I have found for D cups and up is the Enell bra. This is an excellent women’s size sports bra that gets amazing reviews and really does it’s job well.
