For women only- sports bra help

I don't have big boobs, but my company owns Moving Comfort.  I went to their bra fit clinic and the main things for you to keep in mind is that you need the band to fit tighter than a regular bra and need encapsulation for the girls versus compression only.  Also, though there should be stretch in the cup area, there should not be much stretch in the shoulder area so that your bouncing will be limited.  Finally, when you put it on, your breast tissue should be fully contained (nothing spilling out of the arm holes) or you're wearing the wrong size.

If you think any of these will work for you, I can get an employee discount.  Basically, it's 40% off the price you see there plus $7 for shipping for up to 6 garments.  It's not really an amazing deal, but if you try them on at a local store and like them anyway, it'll save you a few bucks.  http://www.movingcomfort.com/Product/sportbras.html

Good luck!

Hey Mary -- Having gone to bra fitting clinics for sports bras, I learned a little bit about how the bras should fit.  Be careful about wearing bras that are too small for you.  If they don't contain all of your breast tissue, they can end up causing you pain and even damage.  I'd say it's better to wear two bras in the right size than one that's too small.

A friend of mine wears a 34D, I believe, and was wearing a C sports bra at one time.  I saw how her breasts were actually spilling out of the armholes and underneath the band.  Because of that, the bra wasn't providing what it should be in terms of support.  Also, larger bras are designed to better deal with the challenges of larger breasted women.  A smaller bra may not be designed to provide as much support and have reinforcement in the right areas.

I've asked the bra fit lady at Moving Comfort to send me a pamphlet on how to fit a sports bra properly.  When I receive it, I'll let people around here know and will find a way to e-mail/fax it to those who'd like to see it.

Take care of your girls -- they're yours for life! 

Well ladies, I have to live vicariously through you.  Unfortunately, all my training has caused my small Bs to go down to As.  It really sucks to have a lot of cute bras that are now "baggy."  What's worse is that Vic Sec doesn't make a lot of the cute bras in my size.  I guess they figure bandaids will do. :-(

So, treat them well.  Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?  I shrank paradise and now I don't need a bra. ;-)

Not to hijack, but this needs to be said: there are men who think an athletic woman with smaller breasts is a huge turn on - my wife is a 34A and has the most perfect breasts I've ever seen (I'm not a perv BTW) - even after breast feeding three kids.

Biggun's just don't do it for me.

Back to the Learning Chanel...

I know EXACTLY  which one you have.  Its a soggy mess.  I got some nice Descente bras I like very much and are resonably dry.
