Sports Bra Recommendation

Wednesday November 4, 2009

It may not be the prettiest sports bra I've seen, but it's by far the best! I recently took the Enell Sport out for a rather vigorous workout, and I have to admit it's the first time I could wear one sports bra instead of two. (I usually wear two layered over each other, plus a sports tank with a shelf bra.)

There was some bounce when I was actually jump roping, but it wasn't that painful kind of bounce that makes you stop what you are doing--it was kind of a "natural" bounce that didn't impede movement. Since I think the one I had on was actually geared toward the lower-impact spectrum, that's really impressive--it doesn't get more high-impact than jumping up and down as high as you can go, and in one place!

If you have trouble choosing a sports bra (perhaps because you've given up on finding a good one?), this could be a smart one to test out. Let's just say... it was on Oprah.

This high-impact bra is available at Lila Plus.

Enell sport bras are the BEST. Yes they look like body armor and take ages to put on while you do up all those hooks, but the hold is like nothing else.

I’ve been working on in an Enell sports bra ever since Oprah advertised it a few years ago. At a 44DDD, I can honestly say that it is THE BEST sports bra that I have ever owned. Be careful not to put it in the dryer, though.

This looks an awful lot like what Title Nine catalog calls “The Last Resort Bra.” Are they the same thing?
