Why is it essential to protect the chest during physical exertion?
Playing sport met puts your fragile, skin-supported breasts to a severe test. Regardless of your cup size or age, the movements and bounces to which they are subjected can cause them to weigh up to 5 times their own weight, depending on the intensity of the sporting activity. Wearing a sports bra offers the support, comfort and protection they need. It protects them from impact, pain and premature sagging.
High, medium or low maintenance - what's the point?
During exercise, the breasts are subjected to tensions that stretch the skin and ligaments of the chest. Lack of support increases the risk of pain or premature sagging. Conversely, excessive support can also cause long-term damage. It's crucial to adjust the level of support in your bra according to your cup size and the intensity of the impact you experience. The aim is to preserve the bust without altering the natural movement of the breast.
