Post-baby, it’s always difficult to find clothing that will fit right, let alone supportive athletic wear that could fit snug in the right areas. Personally, it’s been a year post-baby and I’m still finding it difficult to find clothing that provides support. That is until lululemon launched its brand new line of innovative bras, that range in sizes A – E. These superior sports bras allow me to move freely, do a rigorous workout, and give the girls all the help they need. Comfort is key here, no if’s, and’s, or but’s. Inspirational fabric that is designed to move with you, from start to finish. Personally, an intense workout can stop me in my tracks. Fear of chest pain, zero support, and a lack of coverage can take my exercise regime from 100 to 0 pretty quickly.
What I Love About lululemon’s New Sports Bras
These bras are specifically engineered to cater to your workout. Lululemon has provided the public with a light-support, medium-support, and high-support support so that you can choose what fits you and your exercise style. Each of the bras also has added stretch so you can move with zero restriction. For example, Light Support is perfect for the yogi in you. Limited hardware for the ultimate in flexibility and minimal structure for zero chaffings is perfect for the low-impact workout. Medium Support is for the Pilates-Esque workout. If you’re finding yourself combining less intense moves with a bit of cardio, this bra is for you. This bra combines stretch and structure so that you can easily switch from cooldown to a few burpees.
For me, it was important to get back into running shape, so the High Support Bras are some of my favorites. This bra allows for the weight up top to be distributed evenly. The encapsulated cups shape, separate, and soften bounce, so my girls are always kept safe and snug.
Some of My Favorite Picks From lululemon
As a lululemon fan (since well … forever!), I immediately gravitated towards the following products. These are the ones I can get my sweat on in, feel comfortable, and focus completely on my workout. It’s so difficult to get distracted but what you’re wearing and how it can make you feel, but these items let your anxieties slip away and make comfort sink in. I’m an avid exerciser, so my workouts range from yoga to running to pilates, and I need flexibility first.
1) lululemon Align™ High Rise Crop 17″ ($88)
These are my go-to yoga pants and they’re specifically designed for it too! The Align High-Rise Cropped Pant is almost weightless, so I can go through my vinyasa with ease. I love how soft these feel on my body. As a new mum, they also do wonders for shape retention.

4) Run Times High Support Bra ($68)
Since having baby Oliver, my breast size doubled and has for the most part stayed the same. After struggling with fitting into my old workout bras, the Run Times High Support Bra has saved my workout routine tenfold. If you’re larger on top, you know how hard it is to find a hard that can suit you there! With this bra, each of the girls is supported with separate coverage and perforated paneling for airflow. A godsend!
