Prior to purchasing from SHEFIT, I had purchased a similar style from a well known major retailer with zip front enclosure. It stated for high intensity workouts but it squeezed, pushed, pulled, and poked me every workout. When I got my SHEFIT Ultimate Sports Bra in the mail (which came in a day because I also live in Michigan), I will admit I was nervous because it looked similar to the very uncomfortable one. But BOY was I WRONG! I slipped it on and adjusted the straps. Figured I'd test it on a run. I had no movement (to let you know I'm bra size 34D) but didn't feel suffocated like I had in other bras. Instead of pinching and poking, my chest felt "hugged". I didn't stop at a run, I want and also did a chest and back weight routine. I was able to move freely and was amazingly supported. I'm so happy I took the advise of a fitness friend who has been raving about SHEFIT for months! This sports bra is truly the "ultimate" sports bra! I look forward in wearing it during my races in the future!
