Can anyone recommend me a sports bra for a full bust?

I’m now fit enough to run and enjoy it- except for the boob bouncing/ pain. Can anyone recommend me a bra for giving good support and holding them in place, I’m around a size 12 and E cup

It’s bloody painful and embarrassing with my current one

Thanks

Ooo! Following with interest.

Shock absorber. I’m a 34 h cup. It’s the only one I’ve tried that has worked. Bravissimo is where I ordered it.

I’m just looking at shock absorbers on Amazon now...

Shock absorber ultimate run bra - it comes in lots of colours. I’m 36DD and they never hurt...

Another vote for a shock absorber. Mine lasted 7 years.

I’m a GG and wear an Ennell sports bra for running. It’s not pretty but it’s very effective. It might be too heavy duty for you if you are only an E cup.

Are you sure you are wearing the right size of bra BTW? If you are a dress size 12 I’m guessing you are about a 32E or 34E, which isn’t big so I’m surprised you are uncomfortable.

M&S extra high impact was the best I've found - a pack of two for about £30 so doesn't break the bank either.

I got this from Amazon. It's brilliant.

Yep, shock absorber ultimate run!
You’ll probably have to try them on in real life to get the correct size. I’m normally a 32F/G, but the bands are pretty tight on this style so I think mine are 34E.
Anyway, when you work out what size you need you can sometimes get them cheaply on EBay or Amazon.

Another vote here for shock absorber, brilliant sports bra.

cyclingwith3 · 12/07/2019 22:37

34E is really enough to feel very uncomfortable without support, my running friends seems to be lovely A/B cups

I’m also massively heavily than a few years ago, so maybe I feel it more? I used to run in anything without a care at size 6-8

I have a pour moi one and it's amazing. I'm a 36j and does the job for me. This is the one you can get in different colours etc :-)

I also vote for the shock absorber ultimate run bra - your boobs do not move in it! It is the only sports bra I would wear. John Lewis have them for £36 at moment. Be aware that you may need to go up a band though.

ChilliScallops · 13/07/2019 01:13

I found Glamorise sports bras the most supportive.

cyclingwith3 · 13/07/2019 21:30

I hadn’t considered a zip front, but I saw one in Sainsbury’s today. It was £14 so gave it a try, went up a band size to a 36E but it’s really supportive and I’m impressed
