I see often - especially in my Zumba classes, that lots of ladies wear really very unsuitable bras for that kind of exercise, whilst maybe not realizing it but lots of them feel uncomfortable.... A sport bra is a MUST HAVE-for keeping your boobies safe.
Hope this little guide will help
Why a sport bra?
A good sports bra is as essential a piece of kit as a good pair of trainers.
Did you know that there are no muscles in the breast?
Your breasts are made up of the suspensory Cooper's Ligament which(other way saying -soft tissues) when unsupported during exercise, can stretch beyond repair and lead to irreversible breast sag.
Your breasts can bounce up to 9cm when unsupported during exercise!
Distractions can lead to a drop in your sporting performance.
Yet there are 68% of women who exercise regularly not wearing sports bras
How to recognize which sport bra is the right one?
I did try a few different sport bras, some of them squash you boobs so you look like having just a lump on your chest,
some don't have enough support, some look ugly.....
I am very happy with Shock absorber bras, and also saw few of my Zumba ladies to wear it.
It suits for Zumba classes pretty well and have very good reviews from other customers too.
There are few different models, but which ever you choose, they all give you great support,
whilst you feel comfortable and still look good.
If you have smaller boobs (size A) a Nike or other sport branch will do too.
But an ordinary bra or a "sport bra" from cheap shops-doesn't work- I tried it and it's disaster for you boobies. :-(
Look after you boobs, ladies! They worth it!
Here are some links to on-line shops:
THE RIGHT SHOES FOR ZUMBA
I was asked many time about the right shoes for Zumba class.
Some people wearing trainers, some even flat shoes....
The basic rule is light shoes with a cushioned sole.
The ideal are either dance (Jazz sneakers) or trainers with a pivot ball on the sole for easy turns and moves.
The cushioning is very important as we have great impact on the legs (jumping, moving turning, squatting ....)
and a cushioned trainers relive the pressure on the joints and back and that is important so you work out your muscles whilst keeping
your joints save.
