Finding the Right Champion Sports Bra

Posted by KristenM in Sports Bras - (0 Comments)

champion sports braNot too long ago we discussed while it’s important to wear a sports bra when you’re exercising or doing any type of physical activity. But now that you know you need a sports bra, which do you choose? Champion sports bras come highly recommended. Athletes around the world use not only their bras, but their athletic apparel. Quality sports bras, like Champion, will come with an MCR (motion control rating). This rating informs you the level of activity meant for the bra.

A low MCR means the bra is good for walking, low impact workouts, yoga, etc. Medium MCR bras are great for aerobics, fast walking, weight lifting, and dancing. Basically sports where you will be bouncing around, but not too intensely. These bras will be more confining than low MCR bras. High MCR bras are intended for more intense sports like running, jump rope, field sports, etc. These will be the most restrictive, so some might find them slightly uncomfortable –but they do get the job done!

A Champion sports bra will wick away moisture. Most have mesh panels to allow cool air in. They come in a variety of styles to suit your needs and many can even be worn without another shirt over it in the warmer months –it all depends on your comfort level.

Choosing the Right Type of Push-Up Bra

Anita brasContrary to what some might believe, a push-up bra is not just intended for those with smaller cleavage. Likewise, not all push-up bras even have padding. Push-up bras are intended to lift the breasts; they may come with or without padding to add a little extra oomph. If you are not well endowed at all, make sure you look for styles that offer plenty of padding, which may use air, silicone, gel, or even water. (Just don’t puncture a water bra. It won’t end well.)

Women with average size chests don’t need to focus so much on extra padding, but rather on a bra that pushes up your cleavage nicely. Look for a bra that has padding on the lower third of the cup which will help create a good lift without adding to the volume of your bust. Well endowed women can definitely benefit from a push up bra because the larger the breasts, the lower they hang. Avoid any style that has padding. You want a supportive contour to create lift. Also, search for bras with wider straps to evenly distribute the weight of your breasts.

Wonderbra is probably the most famous of them all and will give you the look you desire. Check out BrasNYC.com for all your favorite styles and brands, including Bravado bras and Champion sports bras. And don’t forget that you can easily turn any of these into a nursing bra so you never have to shop specifically for Bravado nursing bras.
