I have a pretty big bust, so finding supportive sports bras can be a major challenge. When it comes to finding the perfect sports bra, it’s all about comfort and hold. Depending on the workout you do, you might need a bra with more support and compression. However, for activities like yoga, a light-support bra might work best.

Torrid is hands down the best brand for those looking for extended sizes. I’d say 95% of my bras (sports bras or otherwise) come from Torrid.
