Every woman, regardless of her breast size, should have a sports bra as a part of her fitness wardrobe. Not only do these specifically designed bras offer better support and more comfort than a regular bra, they also help minimize movement during workouts. Exercising in the wrong bra can lead to more than discomfort. A numbers of issues, including tension in the arms and shoulders and restricted breathing, can occur if the band is too tight.
A woman’s breast are composed primarily of adipose (fatty) tissue, mammary glands, connective tissue, and the Cooper’s ligament, which keeps the breast firm and prevents sagging. Because the underlying chest muscles do not support breast tissue, exercising in anything other than a well-fitted sports bra can stretch the Cooper’s ligament, leading to greater sagging and even pain during exercise.
Believe it or not, just any old sports bra won’t supply the support one needs to prevent sagging, stretching or pain related to exercise. One style certainly doesn’t fit all. The sports bras on the market, to date, certainly don’t fit most.
Studies have shown that between 70% and 80% of women are wearing the wrong size sports bra, and therefore, they may not be getting the benefits of support and comfort from their fitness wardrobe, like THE COZY SPORTS BRA provides.
Finding the right sports bra can be a daunting task when there are hundreds of styles from which to choose! Don’t worry; I’ve done the homework when I invented THE COZY SPORTS BRA.
The compression-style sports bra of THE COZY SPORTS BRA, encapsulates each breast and compresses the breast tissue against the chest. This style is ideal for women with medium to large breasts.
Some construction details to look for are moisture-wicking fabrics, minimal seams, wide straps that do not dig into shoulders and a snug fit around the rib cage, allowing for minimal movement, no bulging from the top or sides and the fabric does not ‘gather’ in the cup, causing chafing during activity — a la THE COZY SPORTS BRA.
In conclusion, today the sports bra is an integral part of every woman’s workout wardrobe. Finding the right sports bra can take time. Once you find one that is perfect for you, like THE COZY SPORTS BRA, you will be amazed how much better you will feel while exercising!
Ladies, here’s to comfort, support and great workouts with THE COZY SPORTS BRA!
