Your overall exercise experience will be better when you're not in pain or feeling self conscious, and that starts with your first layer of clothing. According to Kira, one of the biggest mistakes she sees her clients make is purchasing the wrong sports bra. This is not an anything goes situation, especially when the incorrect bra can lead to a severe slip. The important factor here is considering the activity for which you're dressing. For example, you don't want to be in the same bra for yoga that you'd wear for high intensity interval training, which requires more support.

"You have to do a trial run prior to getting hard core with certain activities," Kira said. "Jump around when trying it on to see if it's something that's comfortable or if you're falling out or showing too much."

Kira also mentioned that major activewear brands will provide product descriptions to help you make more suitable choices. "Look past if they're super cute, that doesn't mean they're super supportive," she said. "Bras can be fashionable and functional. Learn to read the label like you would read a nutrition label."
