       University of Portsmouth Breast UK healthy Institute expert Dr. Debbie Lisius and her colleagues examined 24 female A comparative study of breast activity was conducted. Twelve of them are women aged 45-65, and the other 12 are women aged 18-25. All participants' breasts were 34D. The researchers asked the women to walk on a treadmill for 2 minutes without wearing a bra while observing their breast activity.

      The results showed that the breasts of middle-aged and elderly women actually swayed less during exercise than those of younger women. Dr. Lisius analyzed that the breasts of middle-aged and elderly women are like "old elastic bands", and their elasticity is significantly worse when stretched. There is no doubt that sports bras will help middle-aged and older women protect their breasts more effectively, while also helping to encourage them to participate more in their daily routines. exercise
