Good morning!
I started my day with a delicious batch of overnight oats with fresh berries and chia seeds. It was de-lic-ious. Recipe here!
I also enjoyed a Hawaiian Chocolate Nut iced coffee from Marylou’s.
(This photo is actually from yesterday, but I snuck out at the butt-crack of dawn for one this morning.)
Sports Bra Recommendations for Busty Ladies
Even though it’s been about 2.5 weeks since I started working out again, it still takes me a good 10 minutes to get dressed for my workouts. Why? Because I have no clue what fits and what doesn’t! I’m not wearing maternity clothes anymore, but not all of my old workout gear fits me quite yet. And when it comes to my sports bras… forget about it! My boobs won’t make up their mind about what size they want to be!
I probably own 50+ sports bras in variety of sizes and styles – some fit great, some were a waste of money, so I thought I’d share a few recommendations, so you guys don’t waste your time and money too. Plus, I know the busty women out there have trouble finding quality sports bras that actually fit (story of my life!), so here are a few that I really love!
Here are my top sports bra recommendations for busty ladies!
Under Armour High Crossback Sports Bra
The support in this Under Armour bra is no joke! Not only is it cute, but it has adjustable racerback straps. There is minimal bouncing in this bra – the girls are strapped down, but it’s also comfortable to wear for hours of activity.
Brooks Maia Bra
I own two Maia sports bras from Brooks, and they’re my current go-to postpartum sports bra. (They were also my go-to sports bra during pregnancy.) They’re full coverage with adjustable straps, so they really hold everything in. They also come in bra sizes, so they have a more personalized fit.
Brooks Dare Crossback Zip Bra
When my beloved Brooks Juno Bra was discontinued, I wanted to find an alternative. This Dare bra is very supportive – great for running and high impact activities. I prefer racerback bras to wear under my tanks, so I was happy that they have a racerback and a non-racer scoop back option. Plus, the fabric is silky smooth and really comfy against sweaty skin. Definitely recommend!
