When it comes to shopping for the best sports bra, did you know that it’s almost as important as the pair of trainers that you pound the street in?
Whatever chest size you are, it’s super important to make sure that you have the appropriate amount of support, as it’s reported that women who exercise without a bra’s breasts can move by up to 21cm. Wowee.
Oh and they can also move with as much force as an F1 racing car… so yeah, read on if you want maximum support for your boobs on your fitness endeavour – whether that’s your next parkrun, walk around the block, pilates sesh or gym session.
From big boobs to small ones, eyehooks to slip on, our shopping expert has raided the online rails, and picked out only the best for you. There’s one for every price point and form of exercise too – so what are you waiting for?

And before you ask, no you can’t just wear your average ‘yoga bra’ when heading to a severely sweaty gym sesh at F45 – as you could run the risk of damaging your breast tissue, skin surrounding and even ligaments.
So if you want them to remain as perky as possible, and reduce the risk of ‘spaniels ears’ down the line, read on and treat yourself (and your boobies) to a decent sports bra.
