If you’ve ever gone for a run and were afraid you were going to get punched in the face by your own tatas, then this is the list for you. As if getting the motivation to workout isn’t hard enough, it’s even more difficult when you don’t have a bra that keeps the girls in place. Sports bras are an absolute necessity when it comes to really rocking your workouts, so it’s important that they be functional and comfortable. Tight enough to hold everything where it should be, but not too tight that it squeezes the breath out of you. Stylish, but not to the point of inefficiency. And easy to wear, because cutting a workout short due to malfunctioning gear is no way to keep your beach bod. There’s a bra that’s ideal for just about every sport, but if you’re into high impact activities like box jumps and burpees, or are looking for a little extra support on your runs, check out these Top 10 high impact sports bras!
