A well fitted supportive sports bra can benefit all exercising females. Sports bras come in 3 styles differing in function and fit. Firstly, the compression sports bra that presses breast tissue against the chest wall. This is most suitable for females with smaller breasts or for low impact activities. They are usually a highly elasticated crop top style that is put over the head.

Secondly, encapsulation bras will benefit females with larger breasts or for high impact activities. They contain two structured cups to support each breast individually. This type of bra is adjustable, fastened around the underband and often has a secondary racer back fastening.

Thirdly combination bras are designed to encompass features of both types of design as they separate the breasts and support them individually but offer a layer of compression over the top of the cups. When choosing a sports bra, athletes need to consider the demands of their sport and focus on the fit rather than the size.
