Sports bra advice!

I’m now on week 6 of the programme so I’m running for longer periods. My current sports bra seems to be slacking and I often have to double up to try keep everything under control!

Is there any recommendations for good sports bras for ladies with a larger chest? I think I need to invest in a new one.

I'm having the same problem, just ordered an adidas one that zips up at the front, looks promising, I'll let you know if it's any good when I try it.

I was looking at those style ones but wasn’t sure how much support it would give, it’s just really hard to tell without seeing it in person, let me know how yours goes! :)

Yeah I feel they're either too slack or tight enough they feel like they'll pop out my back! No problem, will update soon!

If you don’t mind spending a little extra, Shock Absorber are AMAZING!

I bought mine pre-running, I used to have a horse and it was the only sports bra I could wear for trotting down the road a few hours at a time 😂

Shock absorber bras are amazing. I have a front fastening one.

Got my adidas one! My life, it's really good, holds everything firmly in place! The material is stretchy yet tight, loving it so far!
