What are Sports Bras?
A sports bra is a type of undergarment specifically designed to support women's breasts during physical activity. Unlike regular bras, sports bras are designed to minimize breast movement, prevent chafing, and provide maximum support. Sports bras are available in a variety of styles, including compression bras, encapsulation bras, and racerback bras.
Consider the Type of Activity You'll Be Doing
High-impact activities like running or jump rope will require a more supportive bra than low-impact activities like walking or yoga.
Fit
Sports bras should be snug but not too tight, and they should stay in place while you're moving. A good sports bra is key to any woman's workout wardrobe. Not only does it provide support and comfort, but it can also help improve your performance. A poorly fitting sports bra can cause chafing, uncomfortable bouncing, and even breast pain. Taking the time to find a sports bra that fits well can make all the difference in your workout.
Consider the Straps
Wide, adjustable straps will provide the most support and comfort. It is the straps that do the majority of the work in keeping your breasts secure. The straps help to distribute the weight of your breasts evenly so that there is less movement and bouncing. They also provide additional support by holding the breasts close to your body. If you have ever worn a sports bra with loose or ill-fitting straps, you know how uncomfortable it can be. The straps can dig into your shoulders and cause pain.
Breathability
Choose a sports bra made from breathable fabrics to help keep you cool and dry during your workout. You want a bra that will allow air to circulate around your body and will wick away sweat. This is especially important if you tend to perspire a lot during exercise. A breathable sports bra will help to keep you cool and dry, which will in turn help you to focus on your workout and not on your discomfort.
