Women
in adventure racing and other active sports need to take steps at preventing breast
damage. The best solution is finding and fitting the best sports bra.
Plenty
of research has been done recently on sports bras and the conclusion is that wearing
a well designed properly fitting sports bra will help to prevent painful bounce
and minimise damage to the ligaments, also it helps to prevent women with larger
breasts from suffering neck and shoulder discomfort caused by excessive bouncing.
By wearing a correctly fitting sports bra, breast movement can be reduced by as
much as 50% thus delaying long term sagging. 82% of doctors surveyed agreed that
“Wearing a sport bra helps to prevent breast motion, reducing stress on the Coopers
suspensory ligament which helps to prevent long term sagging of the breasts” Most
importantly sports bras are more comfortable than most ordinary bras when playing
sport or exercising.
Having decided a sports bra is a good thing the question is which one? Sports
bras are usually designed in one of two formats, the cupless crop top design which
holds the bust in position by compression, and is usually made from stretch fabric,
and the traditional style of bra with cups that lift and separate giving shape
and form. A good fit is essential, firm and supportive but no so tight it restricts
breathing, although you can measure your bust to establish your size and cup size,
it is worth remembering that sizes are not industry standard and each manufacturers
sizes can vary from each other.
