NO-FUN BAGS: Are Your Breasts Disrupting Your Workouts?
LatestScience is finally here to validate the feelings of anyone who’s ever deeply regretted running for the bus in an impractical bra: There are women out there whose breasts are hampering their physical activity.
On top of the earth-shattering revelation that, yes, boob jiggle can result in soreness and discomfort, it’s almost like common complaints from women have some basis in fact!
That’s according to findings from the University of Portsmith. In a recent survey of 239 women, 17 percent said their breasts were putting a damper on their exercise regimens. Often, they couldn’t find the right sports bra, or they were just too embarrassed by the jiggle (which sounds like another sports bra complaint to me). “This latest research is crucial because it shows that breasts are an important factor to consider when investigating what deters women from exercising,” said researcher Emma Burnett.
