Tips to consider when shopping :
Compression: only buy it if you want it. Compression bras will flatten your chest and can make everything feel tighter/harder to breathe. You also don’t have to compromise!
You can wear bras that emphasize your chest without flattening them down. Look for bras that emphasize support and shape!
Binding and working out tips: Alternatively, a compression bra can be a safe alternative to binding. If you wear a binder, you should size up for workouts and keep the activity to a maximum of 30 minutes with multiple breaks and lots of hydration.
Your body will expand with heat and movement, and as binders are designed to compress and restrict, this can cause damage to your ribs and lungs, as well as make working out uncomfortable.
Leggings and tucking tips: if you plan to tuck or are worried about flashing someone – opt for longer shorts, especially if you’re usually shopping in the “women’s” activewear sections.
Those extra inches will be the difference in your ease of comfort and feeling like you have complete coverage.
Running tights tip: Exercise caution (no pun intended) when looking into running tights and leggings as well. They can make tucking extremely difficult.
During our research, we found that buying briefs, or tight women’s running shorts, and layering those over leggings is most helpful in creating a tuck-free, smooth look.
