Sports bras are the essential workout partners for a woman. The tender tissues around a woman’s chest need support during intense workout sessions which, if not supported may lead to back pain, discomfort, stretch marks or even sagging.

The best way to avoid breast related issues is by wearing the right type of sports bra. There are certain bra types that may or may not suit your body type. For example, balconette bras don’t work well with narrow shoulders. But, a sports bra becomes a default must-have for all women. It works well with all body shapes and age group of women.

Types of Sports Bras

There are primarily three categories in while sports bras can be divided. These three divisions include:

1. Tank Top –

These bras usually have closure from the back which offers added adjustment. Other tank top bras allow the bands of the bra to be crisscrossed.

2. Racerback

These types of bras create a Y-shape between the shoulder straps in order to provide support for medium to high-impact activities. These bras are generally not adjustable and so need to be chosen carefully.

3. Crisscross

These are a type of bra that crisscrosses at the back and provide comfortable support. The straps are adjustable according to the fit of an individual.

Surprisingly, a lot of women like to wear a sports bra even when they are not working out! Lazying around on a weekend in a sports bra gives you unmatched comfort along with support.
