Choosing the right bra for the yoga session should be the first step. While you do all the stretching and extending, you don't want to regret wearing an underwire bra that pokes you here and there. Nor do you want a bra with lesser coverage that can't keep your breasts stay put.
Comfort and Support
When choosing a bra for yoga, look for the details that can help ensure comfort and support. They include adjustable straps to help customize the fit; lining in the cups to prevent overexposure; and mesh panels in the back and sides to reduce weight.
Yoga Bra Materials
Cotton bras are soft and breathable, but not recommended for sports that lead to high levels of perspiration. Spandex sports bras are a common option because of the elasticity.
Finally, microfiber is a thin, synthetic fiber that is popular for its moisture-wicking ability.
How do I know what size sports bra to buy?
First, measure around the fullest part of your bust. Keep the tape straight across your back. Round up to the nearest whole number.
Now, subtract your rib cage measurement (step 1) from your bust measurement (step 3). The difference in inches is your suggested cup size.
