You might not give a second thought to a well-fitting piece of sports clothing, but when your kit isn鈥檛 up to scratch, it can be a real disadvantage to your game.
That鈥檚 what Dr Jenny Burbage and her team have been addressing through their innovative research in breast health and biomechanics here at the 黑料正能量.
In this episode of Life Solved Jenny shares how inconsistent products, sizing systems and a lack of historic research have left many women wearing the wrong bra for their sport or shape. She discusses what actually makes a good sports bra and the considerations we should have when looking for the right fit.
It鈥檚 her hope that by addressing the gap in knowledge in this field of biomechanics, we can also address inequalities not only in women鈥檚 sports but in fields such as the military and police too.
