How To Keep Things From Bouncing While Working Out?

So I have been working out more lately, and not only is my sports bra not cutting it, but my tummy is bouncing all over the darn place. It makes me not want to work out because I am self conscious about it.

Is it okay to wear shapers while working out? Will they make you itchy?

Do they make work out gear just for big girls that will keep things in place? If they do WHERE CAN I GET THEM?

So far all I can find is regular sports bras and shapewear at AdditionElle and Penningtons here in Canada.

looking forward to hearing how yall other ladies keep the wobbly bits in place!

Thanks

I work out daily, and when I wear athletic shorts, I wear spanks underneath! I bought my sports bras online. Just google it...you'll get lots to choose from.

I bought a fantastic sports bra from Scheels in North Dakota (brand has worn off), it's like a double bra with regular type bra inside and a sports bra on the outside. It's great!!

I wear a hi-waist firm shaper and a great sports bra by Maia. It is now my favorite bra and I wear it with everything. In fact I bought 3 more colors. Here is the Amazon link

Try the avenue.com or onestopplus.com websites. Look for the easy up/down shaper. It really is easy to get on and off unlike some and it holds everything in. I love mine and it comes in sizes to 4X I think.

Just to add, it covers the tummy, hips and thighs....works so good!!

Under armor maybe??

i wear two sports bras...and a cami type shaper to support my surgical site (just had surgery on mnday)

I use compression spandex for the bottom and usually I go with nike sports bras about a size too small. That way it keeps everything where it should be. I started doing that when I played college basketball and have done it wih sucess every since. You can get compression spandex at most sporting goods stores. I usually wear mens because they fit me better than womens.
