    Six Tips to Find the Best Bikini or Two Piece for Your Shape

    Byelisabeth May 22, 2013 3:19 pm

    Think it’s too hard to find a bikini or two piece that makes your shape look great? Think again. The itty-bitty bikini made its beach debut in 1946. Frenchman Louis Réard named this design after the Bikini Atoll, one of the Pacific Island sites where nuclear tests had been held. He thought this new beach…

    Sports Bras: Would You Run a Marathon Bra-less?

    Byelisabeth March 20, 2013 6:15 amMay 31, 2025 4:50 pm

    The LA Marathon attracts 25,000 runners every year. I’m not sure how many of those are women, but I saw plenty of sports bra-less female athletes take part in last weekend’s annual race. I was there as an observer cheering on a good friend who had taken on the challenge of competing in her first,…

    Sports Bras for Ordinary and Olympic Athletes

    Bythebreastlife August 13, 2012 6:22 pmJune 24, 2025 3:38 pm

    Sports bras aren’t the first thing I think about when exercising. I hate working out indoors when I could be running outside in a park or on the beach. But we’re having a mini-heat wave in Southern California so I’ve been doing my laps on the treadmill at an air-conditioned gym. The good news is…

    Handful Sports Bra: Respecting the Shape of Active Women

    Bythebreastlife March 24, 2012 11:33 pm

    Ever heard the phrase “more than a handful is a waste?” It’s a backhanded compliment; directed at smaller breasted women at the expense of someone who might be a wee bit bigger busted. Never mind that size is relative and boob beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Residing somewhere further up the alphabet…

    According to an international exercise expert, sports bras should be required athletic equipment for all young girls. But are all sports bras created equally? And what is the best sports bra?

    Best Swimwear: How to Look and Feel Fabulous

    Bythebreastlife June 23, 2011 12:31 amJune 15, 2025 5:23 pm

    Something holding you back from buying a new swimsuit this season? Studies show women become more depressed when trying on a bathing suit, even scoring lower on math tests after the event. I’ve dreaded the experience most of my life – at least since developing curves. Not just because my body has been in a constant…

    My Sports Bra: Less pain, more gain.

    Did you know that over half of all women experience breast pain when exercising? Whether an A or J cup, studies show that a woman’s breast tissue bounces in every direction when her body is in motion.  Wearing the right bra can help alleviate this discomfort and increase one’s ability to get the most from a work out. As a runner, I know I jog faster and…
