Mature women need special bras

Women between the ages need to wear sports bras designed specifically for them, as the years women's breasts become less elastic. This is the conclusion, researchers from the University of Portsmouth.

Few women will run in the traditional street without wearing a bra. But British scientists have found that the traditional age ladies sports bras   fit enough. It turns breast young and elderly women move differently, even if its size is identical.

For example, among women aged 20-30 years while jogging bust mostly fluctuates up and down direction, and the ladies from 45 to 65 makes it much less vertical and horizontal movements of a lot more left to right, and in and out . That's why these women need a few other sports bras .

"Chest pain and shame often stops women aged sports, - said study author Debbie Risus. - Our work confirms the need to change the approach to the selection of sports bras. I think that for the age group require special design. And once these bras will be available, they may contribute to the return of many women to sporting loads. "

In the study, researchers asked women of different ages to run on treadmill for a few minutes, even without a bra. The movement of the chest at this time recorded the 3D-technology. Initially, researchers believed that women's breasts age will move more, as over the years it drops. But this did not happen - the chest of women of all ages moving while running almost equally intense, but in different directions.
