All fit girls pay attention

this is how you find the perfect sports bra

I haven't really been at the front when it comes to distributing the boobies. In the gym, I don't mind that much, everything just stays nicely in place. But if you are blessed with a cup size more, it can be incredibly annoying if your boobies don't get the right support while exercising.

Investing in a good sports bra is therefore an absolute must. And for me, it's an item that I actually spend money on. But how do you know what the right bra is for you? I already gave you a little tip here. I'm going to tell you what to look out for. Because no one is happy with tight bras or loose straps.

Goal

It's important to ask yourself what you will use the bra for. Exercising. I understand. But you wear a different sports bra for your round in Vondelpark than during your yoga class.

Type of bra

There are various sports bras available. Blessed with a well-filled bra? Go for a encapsulated version, this has two separate cups with an elastic band under the cup that provides optimal support. Just like I have a small handful? Then take a compression bra.

Size

I always say: go for a size smaller than your normal size. It is important that the bra provides enough support during your workout. Also, during fitting, raise your arms and see if the bra doesn't ride up. You really don't want your boobies to go their own way during your hour of stepping.

Straps

Team double D: go for wide straps, as they distribute the pressure the best. The thinner the straps, the less support. And make sure your straps don't dig in.

And the most important thing... Just like with your normal bra, it's wise to replace it on time.
