Plus size gym wear

18 replies

cortisolqueen · 18/02/2023 19:22

I really need gym wear in around size 22.

I'm looking for dark leggings ideally with a pocket, that are thick so you can't see through them.

I need a long line gym top that won't ride up - I have a long torso and this feels impossible!

I need a decent sports bra in a 42/44 gg size - I really struggle to find wide band sports bras

Can anyone help me please??

Boobydoo for bras, if you get them with Klarna, you can try them all on and only keep the ones that fit properly.

I like tikiboo leggings and buy my tops from decathlon or Sainsbury's

This is so weird I googled this today!

M&S leggings are great. So are Nike plus but pricey so watch for a sale! Asos do ps gym stuff too.

The thing I struggle for is good tops

Oh and sports bras - bravissimo

Dare2b have a decent range, you might get something in the clearance section too.

I find their stuff fairly true to size/sometimes slightly generous.

No idea on the sports bra but someone will have!

I'm a 20-22 and Gymshark leggings for great on me. They're the best quality I've found so far and they often have sales too.

Fit*!

cortisolqueen · 18/02/2023 19:42

Thanks all - I'll have a look.

Annoyingly bravissimo sports bras only go up to 40 band so any other ideas would be great.

Lucy locket leggings. They do dark, thick gym leggings with pockets in plus sizes.
for bras I just wear a regular bra then a sports bra/crop top over the top

TU at Sainsbury’s.

I buy matalan soulux for leggings. Cheap and have large sizes and not see through

Second Tu at Sainsburys (depending on season) and M&S, not sure about leggings but a lot of my shorts with inner shorts to avoid chafing are theirs.

For bras have a look at Runderwear on line, not fully sure how big they go but they're really comfortable, last well, and do up like a regular bra do you don't have to be a contortionist to get in or out of them.

I'm a size 20 and find m and s goodmove range great!

CjCreggs · 18/02/2023 23:20

Tikiboo! Amazing patterns too :)

CjCreggs · 18/02/2023 23:20

www.tikiboo.co.uk/collections/new-arrivals nice deep pockets which I like :)

frostyfeb · 18/02/2023 23:27
