Have you ever thought about the importance of a sports bra when running and exercising?
For women, a proper-fitting sports bra is as important as a good pair of shoes. Not only can a sports bra improve performance but more importantly it will lessen breast pain, lower the risks of breast damage, reduce embarrassment and improve self-esteem.
However, despite being an essential piece of kit, most women are wearing the wrong bra size. According to research, up to 80% of women are wearing the incorrect bra size. Usually the back size is too large and the cup size is too small. Women often wear the wrong size because they don’t know how the bra should look and feel.
Poor-fitting sports bras lead to excessive breast movement which can lead to stretching, irreparable damage and pain. Additionally, low levels of support impacts your ability to move freely which can:
- Lead to inefficient technique and a shorter stride length
- Influence breathing frequency and increase fatigue as the upper body works harder
- Increase ground reaction forces which increases overall injury risk
Sports bras provide support by restricting breast motion during movement which prevents damage to breast structures. Wearing the right size bra will:
- Be more comfortable and supportive
- Lift the bust revealing the waist to give a slimmer appearance
- Create a better posture and smooth silhouette under clothing
- Fill a woman with confidence
When the body moves, the breasts move independently. Properly-fitted sports bras improve breast position and spine rotation by repositioning body tissue which increases performance and allows you to move freely.
There is so much to consider when fitting a sports bra it can become a bit overwhelming however, most breast and bra issues are resolved through education, advice and fitting.
Join us on Wednesday the 11th June from 4-8pm for our open drop-in Panache Sports Bra Fitting Event!
