Can anyone help me please? I go to the gym to work out and also to Body Pump classes and have usually worn fitted tops but am feeling a bit too fat(big size ten but only 5ft!) and top heavy (34E) in them at the moment...I need V or lowish neck due to the top heaviness and not keen on racer back (Unless it has a fitted top underneath I guess? I am looking for longish, loosish but not billowing t-shirts or vest tops, or even some idea of where to shop for them...everything seems to be either relax/yoga type gear or very fitted...suggestions most welcome. Thanks

Something like this with a sports bra underneath?

Have a look at Ronhill stuff on Amazon. They have some huge discounts on some tanks which are ideal for Body Pump ie long and don't ride up. Got one today for £8 . They are brill!

Have you looked at Sweaty Betty? Their stuff is quite expensive, but worth it if you'll get lots of wear. Tops tend to come up small, so size up or go and try in a store if there's one near you.

I wear a leotard from American apparel or a proper ballet one. It holds you in and zero chance of it riding up or having to keep pulling it down. Also recommend Sweaty Betty, v. flattering.

Thanks so much everyone....I shall get clicking! :)

Also, the leotard combined with loose bottoms helps to stop feeling too busty. It works for me anyway.

Another vote for sweaty betty. For Body Pump I prefer tshirts as I find it more comfy for the tricep track not to be rubbing skin on skin, IMO.

How brilliant are you guys..thankyou. I ordered three tops so fingers crossed when they arrive they will be great. Speedos thanks for advice re: rubbing...I have that problem when I run...horrible!
