Fact.

There are no muscles in the breast.

Only skin and Cooper’s ligaments support breast tissue and any excessive amount of breast movement puts strain on these ligaments causing irreversible damage. Once breast has dropped because of stretching those ligaments, nothing can naturally restore them to their former position.

44%* of women who exercise regularly do not wear sports bras.

Inadequate breast support, coupled with excessive breast movement, is the most likely cause of sore and tender breast after exercise. Also, exercising without a good sports bra can make you uncomfortable , distract you and affect your confidence.

*GFK U&A 2012

Wearing a Shock Absorber bra is proved to reduce breast movement by up to 78%**

This has proven to be as much as twice as effective at minimising breast movement as a ‘normal’ bra when exercising.
