    Red face LADIES.......Suggestions to keep "the girls" contained, LOL

    So....went to do some jumping jacks and "the girls" were not too happy about it since they now look like deflated balloons after 48 lbs gone.....so...what's the best sports bra out there????? I'm thinking the Nike look pretty good to hold them in their place, but I don't want to put the money out there for failure!!

    I got some pretty good ones from target, about $15 each. I think they're Champion brand.

    This sounds funny, but I go try them on and jump up and down in the dressing room. You could try a few jumping jacks in the dressing room. Every person is different and it's important to find the right fit, comfort, and something "contains" well for you. I do a lot of jogging so I need good sports bras. I imagine for calisthenics like jumping jacks you are going to need a "high impact" bra.

    I like Champion also. They have a good selection, some for lower impact and some for higher.

    HAHA! I was gonna say DUCT TAPE! I've even got some decent ones from Walmart. Just look for "high impact" or you can also double up if needed. Just getting the dumb things on can be a challenge too! LOL It's sometimes easier to step into them than to pull over your head. Definitely NOT something you want on youtube!!

    Thank you Terry. It's a complicated process, unfortunately. I make and update the chart in Excel, then capture a screen shot, crop and save it as a picture, upload the picture to the web - on my personal website, then copy the URL and paste it in my forum signature. I had to play around with the picture to get it the right size (not too big or too small). There has got to be an easier way! Perhaps we should ask MediaHound if he can do some type of similar chart for us to use on the forum website. It sure would be nice if it were a simpler process. Perhaps someone has some ideas on an easier process?
