Women: More On The Importance Of a Sports Bra's

WHY YOU SHOULD WEAR A SPORTS BRA

Not to generalise, but we (women) are pretty good at shopping! If there is a good excuse to buy the latest bag or piece of kit, then you can bet we'll find it! 

Try to make sure you have a comfortable sportswear that looks great, works hard and keeps you dry and comfortable, whilst allowing you to move and stretch without worry; you make sure your trainers support your stride so as not to suffer an injury; and you are likely to try/follow the latest fitness trend if you think it will be beneficial to your health and body.

Read through these facts, sure you'll agree that a sports bra is one of the most important pieces of kit you could ever own:

• Unsupported breasts move up to 12cm during exercise - up-down, in-out, and side-to-side.
• Unsupported breast movement can result in discomfort and chafing.
• Unsupported breasts are put under a lot of strain, which damages the delicate Coopers Ligaments which is what causes sagging.
• Unsupported breasts will eventually suffer from tissue damage that can't be reversed without the aid of surgery.
• Exercise in a normal bra is not enough - tests conducted by Shock Absorber showed that breast movement is reduced by 38% when wearing an ordinary bra but this rises to as much as 78% with a Shock Absorber sports bra.
