RECOMMENDED SPORTS BRAS

• Whatever your bra size,
  it’s important to wear a sports bra
  Big or small, all breasts move during exercise so it’s important to wear a sports bra. Our research has shown that even an A cup can bounce up to 4cms and a G cup can bounce as much as 14cms*. Shock Absorber offers a range of sports bras from an A-HH cup.

• WHATEVER EXERCISE YOU DO
  a good sports bra is needed
  Running, walking, cycling, team sports, yoga - whatever your activity, level or frequency breast bounce will occur meaning you need the support of a sports bra. A Shock Absorber sports bra will support you by reducing bounce and improving comfort when exercising.
• A POSITIVE EFFECT
  ON YOUR WORKOUT
  Inadequate breast support during exercise can make you feel uncomfortable, distract you and affect your confidence. Wearing a Shock Absorber sports bra will help to minimise your breast movement, allowing you to focus on your performance and enjoyment.
• A Shock Absorber sports bra is
  TWICE AS EFFECTIVE
  Research has shown that a normal bra can reduce breast bounce by up to 38% whilst a Shock Absorber sports bra can reduce breast bounce by up to 78%*. Shock Absorber has a range of sports bras in cup and back sizes, so whatever your preference there will be a style to suit you.

• There are no muscles
  in the breasts
  Only skin and Cooper's ligaments support breast tissue. Any excessive amount of breast movement puts strain on these ligaments causing them to stretch. Nothing can naturally restore them. Wearing a Shock Absorber sports bra will help to prevent long term damage to your breasts during exercise.
• YOUR BREASTS MOVE IN
  3 DIMENSIONS
  Up and down, side to side and backwards and forwards. At Shock Absorber, we apply advanced biomechanical research and testing to the design of all our sports bras. This gives you the best possible support in all three dimensions, for ultimate comfort and reassurance.
