Okay, so the last time I wore a sports bra I was 11, lol. I get pretty good support in my regular bras..but I dont be sweating through all my good bras. Anyhoo..where can I buy a really nice sports bra that wont have my girls moving all around??

What bra size are you Shopaholic? If you are well-endowed I would stay away from the little compression bras you can buy at Target. They are nice but I found as a DD that they didn't really do very well for anything but a leisurely stroll.

If you are bigger, and need something for more support (and are willing to spend a little bit of money) I suggest Moving Comfort. I can buy them in some stores here in Northern Virginia, but if don't have them in your area you can buy them online. I have found they are the only bras that hold me in and up when doing high impact cardio like running. They cost a bit (about $50 per bra) but I am definitely glad I spent the money to keep the girls up.

If you are smaller or just normal sized in the chest, any bra, Champion for instance, would be good.

I saw these on Oprah... So its gospel right... LOL..
The guest who was talking about them said to look for a few key things: Thickness, reinforced seams especially in the back, a mesh back, a wide band at the bottom...Before I saw these, I had bought a couple cheapies at Target which are OK, but I'm going to try these next... a little pricey to be 'growing' out of... but look very comfortable...

I have to have underwire sports bra with SUPPORT. If I wear a plain ol' sports bra I get the big BOOB roll..lol I HATE that. I have a couple that I will throw on after a shower just to run around in the house at night...but never to the gym or outside...

Francie - I second the recommendation for Moving Comfort. I bought the Maja (or was it Freia) style back in the fall and it has been hands down the best fitness purchase I ever made. I bought mine at Academy for about $38, and it shows no signs of wear and tear. I wear it almost everyday and it goes in the washer, but I do air dry it. I started out jogging at a 40DD and would get so sore. This bra is comfortable and is probably the only reason I've be able to move forward with my running.

My fav sports bras right now are Instant Shaping Shock Resistant Sport Bra (http://www4.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx?DeptID=50475&CatID=51853&GrpTyp=PRD&ItemID=12a6f34&attrtype=&attrvalue=&CmCatId=EXTERNAL|51853). I get them at JCPenney and they've been on sale for awhile I think.

I love my Moving Comfort capri workout pants though! Best pants EVER, so I bet the bras are excellent also.
