State of the experiment.


Sports scientist Dr. Joanna Scurr believed that the movement speed of the chest is the key to reducing chest pain and damage to the ligament, and we have tested 50 different bra sessions over 3 years. As a result, the woman's breasts move about 21 cm when running, they are shaken in all directions, but most of the bra is restricted to move only in the vertical direction, the experiment proved. It is estimated that more than 95% of women in dangerous situations are not wearing a bra that suits themselves from the lack of knowledge etc.

"Most women are wearing brassieres with large underbands and small cup sizes, inappropriate bra does give discomfort and leads to sagging chest," Dr. Scurr says.

Dr. Scurr's research team is also helping with the design of a sports bra with a hard cup to protect the chest and it is said that it will be sold in Europe in the year.
