The Best Sports Bra
Because you know how important it is to have the right footwear when doing any kind of physical activity, you don’t go running in the same shoes you wear to work, nor would you go to the gym in your work shoes… of course not! You expect quality footwear, which you know provides protection, support, comfort and functionality. Today we demand more from our sportswear and sports bras. We are always on the lookout for stylish, but functional, gear when trying to squeeze that much needed physical activity into our daily lives. But what about the UNDER garments? Why do we give so little thought to underwear? For women in particular, the sports bra is as important as the shoes you put on your feet. Finding the right women’s sports bra, according to shape and sporting activity, is fundamental for comfort and health, but sometimes can seem more complicated than it should be because of the range and styles that are out there. (It’s not just as easy as picking a color; “I’ll just take the black sports bra, thank you very much”!) When it comes to sports bras for women, the choices are endless. But how do you know you are getting the right sports bra for you, made from quality materials and created with your body-shape in mind? You choose from the Ryderwear range of cool sports bras and you know you’ve got the best. We, at Ryderwear, would like to show you just HOW important that exercise bra is and how protection, support, comfort and functionality is not just for the shoes you but the workout clothes you train in.
To maximize performance, and your comfort, the first thing to consider is what level of impact your activity has, as this affects the type of workout bra you need. It is very important to match your sports bra with the type of exercise you will be doing.
The Different Types Of Sports Bras Based On Your Activity
Different levels of support are needed for the three levels of sport which are low, medium and high impact.
1. Low impact sports bras are for workouts that involve limited “movement” as they involve less jumping around – think of pilates, yoga or even weight training. Our Ryderwear Core Sports Bra is the perfect low impact sports bra for women for both comfort and support. The soft, performance fabric is elastic-tight giving a sense of support, while the stylish crisscross back straps give a snug fit. With 88% nylon and elastane, you will feel cool as you work out, while being able to carry out a full range of movements with ease and comfort. Another of the Ryderwear options for low impact sports is the Lauren Simpson sports bra, tried and tested by Lauren Simpson herself, this exercise bra is ideal for low-impact workouts where this stylish, yet supportive, sports bra will have you looking and feeling ready to take on any physical activity!
2. Medium impact sports bras were created for a more moderate amount of movement and would be an asset to the determined power-walker or users of the more energetic gym equipment, such as the elliptical. The choice of fabric, which should be strong and giving support, is very important. Ryderwear sports bras are created with fabrics that are tried and tested to endure the most rigorous of sports workouts. For medium level sport, the Empire Mesh sports bra ticks all the boxes. You can choose from a range of four colors, and the halter neck design gives it a unique and very feminine feel. The sports mesh panels help keep the body cool while adjustable thick straps give this women’s sports bra the perfect fit for your shape. To complete your elegant look, why not match with our Queen High Waisted Leggings.
3. A high impact sports bra is required for activities such as running, dancing and most aerobics that make up high-impact workouts and call for coverage, high level support, and compression. A compression high impact sports bra compresses the chest and movement is therefore restricted. Reduction of chest movement is obtained through fabric choices - sturdy, yet comfortable, materials mean the right level of support without feeling too tight. The Ryderwear Seamless High Impact Sports Bra is the perfect choice and will keep you feeling cool, thanks to its moisture wicking fabric, and supported with its seamlessly knit fabric which allows for any range of movement, this sports bra will feel like a second skin while you wear it. This is an all-round must have sports bra for all sports enthusiasts.
It is important to remember that your sports bra should feel tight but not so tight as to make you feel uncomfortable. By choosing a quality made bra, like the ones created by Ryderwear you will be guaranteed freedom of movement while skipping, running, dancing, stretching or jumping. And while you are sweating it out your workout bra will restrict movement in the chest area allowing you to carry out your physical activities without the discomfort (and sometimes pain) of too much bounce in your chest! The importance of proper fitting is never underestimated in the Ryderwear sports bra range. Bras designed for all body shapes and sizes with high-quality fabrics ensure maximum support and comfort. If your shoulder straps are cutting, or if chaffing is a problem then you need to reconsider your choice of sports bra. Choosing from the Ryderwear range means keeping quality and comfort, literally, close to your heart!
