Researchers at the University of Memphis found a more supportive bra is linked to increased knee joint stiffness, which is associated with improved running performance.
Wearing the correct sports bra may increase running performance by up to 7%, according to a new study.
In a study of 12 recreational runners, who self-reported they wore B, C and D-cup bras, wearing a high-support sports bra increased knee joint stiffness by 5% compared to a 2% increase in a low-support sports bra. Researchers suggested that breast pain can be a significant barrier to exercise, with 72% reporting soreness while running.
