One of the challenges of being a fuller figured woman is finding a sports bra that works well for you. The Fiona is Moving Comfort's most popular bra, and for good reason. It works.

Moving Comfort Womens Fiona Bra List Price: $44.00 Average Rating:   |
|
Moving Comfort's most popular sports bra, the Fiona features seam-free molded cups with one-way stretch powermesh that encapsulates the breasts for support and limits up and down movement. This means that you can maintain the shape of your bust, while still receiving the high level of support and movement control that you expect from a sports bra... |
This Moving Comfort sports bra has an amazing 4 and 1/2 stars out of 5 on Amazon out of 66 reviews. It gives fantastic support and minimizes movement while providing serious wicking of moisture away from the body. It comes in sizes from 32 B up to 40 DD.
One of the things that is so impressive about Moving Comfort's entire line is how well the clothes fit a woman's body. This is because the company was founded by women for women over 30 years ago, when there were no workout clothes for women. In all of that time, the company has been dedicated to producing clothing that fits the way women move, while delivering the best that new technology in fabrics has to offer.
While the Fiona is the most popular atletic bra in the Moving Comfort line, it is not the only one. Here are some others to consider.

If you are a woman that does any type of sports activities at all then you know how crucial it is to find quality athletic bras, especially if you are well endowed. There are many good quality athletic sports bra styles that are available today and a lot of what you choose should depend on your bust size and also what type of clothing that you want to wear with this bra. Whether you are petite or looking for a ddd sports bra that works, I have some great recommendations for you.
A great athletic sports bra to consider is this model by CW-X

CW-X Women's Xtra Support Zip Bra List Price: $65.00 Average Rating: |
|
Extra support doesnít have to mean extra sports bras. Engineered for larger cup sizes (up to 40DD), the Xtra Support Bra combines extra motion control from the reinforced 5-point Targeted Support System with the convenience of a full zip frontal closure system... |
This piece of athletic apparel is a front zip bra (much easier to put on than a hook and eye closure) that greatly reduces bounce. It runs a little small, so it is recommended that you go one band size up in this bra. This bra also features advanced wicking fabric so that you stay dry. With this style I would definitely wear a shirt over it, because it is not really good looking enough to wear on its own, but for comfort and support it is a winner.
If you are looking for athletic bras that can be worn on their own without an extra top, you may want to consider sport bra tops. Much of the time these are styled less like bras, and more like cropped sports shirts. Here is a good pick for a fuller figure.
It comes in several fashion colors and looks nice enough to be worn alone at the gym or while jogging.
Here is a good pick for women with smaller chests.

Sexy Microfiber Single Strap Sports Bra Top - W/ Stretchable Lycra (Large, Beige) Average Rating:  |
|
At less than 1.0 denier, Microfibers are finer than luxury natural fibers such as silk, yet strong and uniform. The close packing of the fine filaments of Microfiber are able to lock out water without chemical treatments or coatings, yet allow passage of moisture vapor, leaving the wearer dry and comfortable... |
This is a really cute bra, but is not for high impact workouts. If you are running you will want something more supportive in your sports bras, but it is a great bra for A and B cups for walking or for yoga, and it looks great on its own or under tanks. This style does however run big, so be sure to keep that in mind when ordering and order a size down.
Speaking of yoga, did you know that you can actually get a specific yoga sports bra? Here is a good example.

Enell sports bra List Price: $64.00 Average Rating: |
|
Women with a larger bust size can now exercise in comfort thanks to Enell's design know how. The front-fastening Enell sports bra is designed to minimise bounce, while the fabric holds moisture away from the body and has finished seams to prevent rubbing. |
I love the amazing support and the tight fit. If you are doing yoga, you don't want your clothes to get in the way, so this is a great bra for yoga (my personal favorite exercise).
A good athletic sports bra is probably one of the most important pieces of clothing in any women's sportswear collection, because it will not only make you more comfortable when you are exercising, but it will also protect your figure. Athletic bras are definitely worth the investment.

It used to be that the only kind of sports bra you could buy was the full compression type. They operate basically like a giant Ace bandage and just hold your chest immobile by compression. Thankfully, manufacturers have come a long way when it comes to sports bras. There are now both regular size and full figure sports bras that offer amazing support (and even some definition) no matter what cup size you take. Even if you are looking for a high impact sports bra, DDD or higher, you can find great support. You can even get underwire sports bras these days that do an excellent job at both support and definition (Woo-Hoo).
When you are looking to buy and underwire sports bra, the most important thing to consider is the stabilization ability of the bra. In other words -will it keep the girls still? The next most important thing to look for is the comfort level. A sports bra is worth nothing if it is uncomfortable to wear.
Here is one of the top rated sports bras on Amazon along with some customer reviews.

Reviews
I agree with the other reviewers. Runs small, go up one cup size. Not just great for high impact. I wear it for everyday, too. Just ordered 2 more.
This bra is ok, but not nearly as nice as the model it replaced (which was perfect). Champion, please go back to the drawing board and make the older version of this sports bra! The straps on this are barely adjustable (in the back) so you can't get them to fit well...I'll never buy a Champion sports bra again, since this is the only underwire model of theirs that comes in (a small size) 34C. Women want a supportive bra when jogging and this one does not do the trick.
can't find the underwire sports bras in too many stores anymore. gives great support but runs a tiny bit smaller then others i have ordered at full price on other websites.
I already owned two of this Champion Model 1695 bra. They are so comfortable that I wanted another. The quality is excellent and the underwire holds extremely well with no discomfort, a combination hard to find in most bras.
I purchased this bra because I wanted something to control moisture during a trip to a tropical region. It was quite good for that, and provides solid support. I am able to do Wii running and play DanceDance Revolution (a fairly high-impact game) with little bouncing and no pain. My only complaint is that the support does not last all day -- by midday, the bra starts to pull away from my body between my breasts (36D). Given that, I think the best uses are exercise and maybe short trips out in summer heat. The moisture control is such a great plus though that I often wear this bra all day and just ignore the fit issue. I will purchase more.

It is no surprise to me that this is a Champion sports bra. They are almost always rated top of their class and are excellent bras especially for bustier women. I personally love them.
The only downside to underwire sports bras is that they look like regular bras, which means that they are difficult to wear as a stand alone garment like you can with some other styles. But if you are gifted with a larger chest (like me) than you may want to try and underwire bra, especially if you are going to be doing a lot of high impact type of activities.

When you are working out, you want to eliminate "bounce" as much as possible. This isn't too difficult if you are a size A or B, but once you get past a C cup bra size, getting the stabilization that you need in a sports bra can be challenging. You really need to select from sports bras for large breasts. There are many that are designed specifically for your needs.
Here is how to choose a good sports bra that will work for you.
Most sports bras for smaller figured women work on the compression method. They basically squoosh your chest flat. This works, but when you take that style into a D, DDD, or even F it doesn't work so well any more.
For a larger cup size, I prefer the divide and conquer type of sports bras. These are the types of bras that hold each breast still individually. As an added benefit they also look better on and give you a way better shape.
Another big difference in sports bras for fuller figured women is that they come in real bra sizes. If it doesn't don't buy it, it won't work as well.
Here is my favorite sports bra for a fuller figure (with real customer reviews):

Reviews
I ordered this bra based on the positive reviews of several women. I am a 38-40C, distance runner and gym rat. I LOVE this bra!!! It has the support and comfort that I have been looking for. I have always bought Champion bras but this is by far my favorite. I can't wait to try it during my next half marathon in March!!!
I've used this bra for several years. They are well constructed for the price point and I find them well supportive for high impact activities. Because I am bigger now after having kids ( went from a 36C to 38C/D), I find a little bit of a "uniboob" problem than before kids.
This is the best sports bra that I own. If you are like me, with large boobies, then this is a great buy! It was hard for me to find a sports bra for larger size breasts that didn't smash you and cut off your circulation. I use this bra for all of my physical activites and I don't feel ashamed or embarassed while out excersizing. I do not have to wear a 2nd bra and I don't have my DD's bouncing back and trying to knock me out (cuz they are real).
I usually use the really cute looking Nike sports bras that come in all different colors but I'm on a deployment and I didn't want to bring those with me. I ordered these because they looked basic and they weren't too expensive and they had good reviews. I LOVE THEM! I'm a runner and I wear a C/D cup and these bras are awesome. They give you so much support without smashing your boobs to your chest or creating the "uni-boob" that you get from most sports bras. I ran a few miles to test it out and had pretty much no bounce, the bra did exactly what you want a sports bra to do. I highly recommend these!
I am a 36 DD, and have a very hard time finding sports bras that actually work. No pull over the head ones for me. I am a horseback rider and 5 day a week runner, and play tennis and soccer, so I need a bra that will hold everything in place, no bouncing down the street. I had found this bra years ago in the mall and loved it, I bought 5. They lasted years with heavy wear. I had trouble finding them again however, as the stores in the mall no longer carried them. I tried a few other bras in the meantime, but none of them could compare to this one. Even my old worn out champion bras were better than any new ones I tried. I was so happy to find them online, and at half the price! For big busted women who want as little movement as possible, this is the only bra for you! I will never buy another type.
