Why do I need a good sports bra?
It’s that time of year when, more than usual, we’re thinking about exercise. Starting off the New Year with good intentions for a year of health. We couldn’t encourage you more to get moving in any way that feels good to you, but we are here to make sure you’re looking after that delicate breast tissue whilst you do it. Whether you’re completely new to exercise or a bit of a pro we can help you navigate the world of Sports Bras.

As you’ll know by now, we cannot stress to you enough, the importance of a good bra for all aspects of your life. It will help with supporting your all important breast tissue, it will help with posture and it will make you feel great. When it comes to exercise – a correct fitting sports bra should be as important as your trainers or any other piece of essential equipment. Here are some tips to help you with running that marathon you signed up for on News Year Eve….

The basics of a great fitting bra are universal whatever its function. Here’s a quick recap;

The band – the band does 80% of the work when it comes to supporting your breasts. It should be firm but not so tight that you’ll be uncomfortable and therefore won’t ever wear it.

The straps - there should be about an inch give but the straps shouldn’t dig in or be easily movable

From Yoga to Horse Riding, we love the Triumph TriAction Extreme Lite Sports Bra and from the feedback we have our Customers love it too! The fabric has been engineered so it feels light but has superior hold. You can wear it as it is or it converts to a racer back.

Invest in your sports bra and get a fitting for it. There's no universal bra size so it's definitely worth seeing how the style and sizing works for you.

So let us help you achieve those fitness goals!
