5 Reasons to Wear a Supportive Sports Bra

5 Reasons to Wear a Supportive Sports Bra

Regardless of the workout a quality well fitted sports bra should be an essential item in your active wardrobe.  A 2018 study found that breasts can move up to 14cm during exercise if left unsupported. Here’s why it’s important to wear well fitted sports bras during exercise:

Comfort

A supportive sports bra will reduce discomfort while you exercise, allowing you to focus on your workout. This is especially important if you’re doing high-impact activities like running or jumping.

Support

As breasts are composed of tissue, they are mainly supported by just the skin and fragile ligaments. When your breasts are not supported with a proper fitting sports bra during any form of exercise you risk causing strain on ligaments which can lead to sagging over time.

Confidence

When you look good you feel good. Knowing that you are properly supported increases your confidence to push yourself harder in your workouts. You can focus on your exercise without having to worry about pulling down or constantly adjusting your bra.

Health

A supportive sports bra can help prevent back pain and other physical discomfort. The added support can also help prevent injury to the breasts and ligaments, which can be a serious problem for women who engage in high-impact sports and activities.

Performance

With a supportive sports bra you can focus your attention on your workout without the stress and discomfort. The added support can help you maintain better posture, comfort, and overall improved performance.

 

When if comes to choosing a supportive sports bra, it’s important to find one that fits properly. These days there are a lot of “fashionable or trendy sports bras” that may look nice on, however add no value or support to your workout. Our number one tip is to make sure the bottom sports bra band is fitted firm against your body and stays firm when you move.

Are Ice Baths Worth the Hype?

Are Ice Baths Worth the Hype?

Ice baths are also known as cold water therapy, cold water immersion (CWI) or cryotherapy, and is practiced by dipping your body in very cold water (10-15 °Celsius) for a short amount of time. This is something quite commonly practiced with athletes, fitness enthusiasts and weekend warriors jumping into an ice bath after physical activity. However, there is now a resurgence and more of us than ever are braving the chill of ice baths because of the health benefits.

Sexy Activewear 2022

Activewear has come a long way in the last few decades, following its peak in the ‘Let’s Get Physical’ Olivia Newton-John years of the 80s activewear somewhat faded into obscurity. Leggings, spandex and other workout clothing were viewed as something worn during short spurts at the gym and certainly not for all-day comfort or a day spent on the town. 

These days gym wear is undergoing a revolution and sexy activewear is all the rage, a trend that is set to continue well into 2022. At Xahara activewear we recognise that your workout outfit needs to be flattering, so you can feel sexy, confident and comfortable all day long.

5 Ways to stay on routine while Quarantining/Isolating

FACT: Our brains don’t like uncertainty. Uncertainty engages the fight-flight-freeze-appease part of our brains (the amygdala) which can stifle clear thinking. Routines are very important now as it will give you a greater sense of control.
