I’m back, once again, to talk to you about boobs. But this time, I’m here to chat sports bras. Whether you’re someone who exercised regularly pre-pandemic or have now found you need to take on more exercise since lockdown, there’s one thing I’m sure of: Finding a decent sports bra is essential. I have been a keen runner for about seven years and have always found that no matter what cup size I’ve been, a sports bra to hold you in place is vital for comfort. While I also (sporadically) do yoga, I still find that support is needed during less vigorous exercise. What I’m saying is that I’m a sports bra evangelist.
But there is confusion about what kind of sports bra you should go for. I know in the past I was told that you should go for a size smaller than you’d usually take. Friends tell me they find them uncomfortable and don’t like wearing them. So naturally, it made sense to ask a professional about this. I spoke to John Lewis & Partners about what they’d recommend and they gave me a few tips on what to look out for.
