" When it comes to working out, the fit of your sports bra is probably the last thing on your mind. If anything, you&amp;#039;re probably worried about how your sneakers feel... Are they too tight? Are they too loose? Well, it&amp;#039;s time that you asked the same of your sports bras! Wearing the right bra for your body is extremely important, because just like an ill-fitting shoe, an ill-fitting bra can lead to injury. Bras that are the incorrect size often lack support, and as a result, you may experience pain and tenderness in your breasts. Even worse, after a prolonged period of time, you may experience intense back pain! So how should you go about finding the perfect bra for your next workout? It&amp;#039;s a pretty tricky process, so we&amp;#039;ve compiled a checklist below! The next time you go shopping, bring this list along with you into the fitting room! Make sure it&amp;#039;s the right size. If you&amp;#039;re an A or B cup, go for compression sports bras which you put on over your head. If you&amp;#039;re a C or larger, an encapsulation style bra - where each breast is cupped seperately - will work better for you. Sometimes these type of bras have fasteners or underwires. Wearing the right bra will support your breasts so they don&amp;#039;t move around too much while you work out, and won&amp;#039;t feel too tight. Make sure it isn&amp;#039;t too loose. If your sports bra has extra fabric bunching at the top of the cup, it means it&amp;#039;s too big. ...or too tight! Try and slide your index finger around the bottom band of your bra. If you can&amp;#039;t, it&amp;#039;s too snug! Do the bounce test! Jump in place five times to make sure you can move around without your breasts moving too much. If your breasts bounce more than you want them to, your sports bra needs to be a little tighter. Make sure it doesn&amp;#039;t ride up or cause chafing. Raise your hands over your head. If the bottom band moves up, your sports bra is too loose! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
