Supporting the Girls: A Sportsbra Review

Sportsbras…ARGH. Finding a plus size version that doesn’t let your girls flop around is like looking for Aztec gold. It’s elusive and frustrating a filled with wrong turns…er…purchases. Why is it so hard to create one that can secure my DD girls and let me exercise in relative comfort?? I’ve had such a problem over the years finding adequate support, but I’ve finally found one that passes the boob bounce test!

BEHOLD! The Glamorise Plus Size Wireless Sportsbra from Woman Within!

First of all, this is a wireless bra…which I was a little unsure of at first because I was concerned with the uniboob effect…but this sportsbra ends up being comfortable, and flattering.

The coolest, most innovative part of this sportsbra is that it has an adjustable front that can be hooked higher or lower depending on what level of support you need. So, if you want more movement and flexibility for your yoga class, hook the straps on the lowest level…If you’re going to be running or doing a training session, you will want to hike it up to the third or fourth level. How cool is that??

 

 

This is a view of the front support flap folded down. You can see that the inside cups provide another level of support and separate the girls so that your ladies look better under your workout tops. I’m not the only person who cares about that, right?

Five hook and eye closures form a wide band that lays flat on your back and doesn’t ride up.

Overall, I have to highly recommend this Glamorise Sportsbra from Woman Within.

I’ve worn it to yoga, zumba, spinning, and through some vigorous sessions on the elliptical. Never once did I feel like my boobs were bouncing around uncontrolled or restricted so I couldn’t breathe.

Here’s an important shopping tip: Order one size ABOVE your normal bra size. I ordered a size up and still had to hook it on the last row of hooks…so it does run pretty small.

So, if you are getting back into your workout routine now that the weather is nicer, this is a great investment!
Protect the girls! Strap ’em in! lol
