Get the right gym wear

Tips to help you choose the perfect sports bra that will improve your focus and comfort during your gym time.

Decide the intensity

First and foremost, you need to decide the intensity of the work out that you undergo. Low & medium intensity work-outs include, yoga, stretches etc, and high intensity work-outs include cardio, kick boxing etc.

The choice of your bra will depend upon the intensity of your activity. Compression sports bra works well for low & medium intensity work-outs, while for high intensity work-outs, you would want to get yourself an encapsulated sports bra.

Moisture wicking fabric

Work-out & sweat comes hand in hand, and with sweat comes chaffing. Make sure that the fabric of your bra is moisture wicking to help you reduce the amount of sweat and hence chaffing.

Don't sacrifice on Support

If you have bigger bust, opt for something that provides good support in the form of broader shoulder straps.

Choose a bra that has more cushioning for proper support & comfort while you are in your active mode.

In fact, regardless of your breast size some of the best sports bras are those that have been designed with side panels and added layers as they offer far more support, and therefore comfort.

Test it out

When you buy a new sport bra, make sure you test it at home to avoid any serious wardrobe malfunctions in the gym.
