Jogging can cause saggy tits

Sagging breasts may be the outcome for women who do not support themselves adequately whilst jogging.

A research team from Portsmouth University found

[…] breasts moved in a 3D figure of eight and that uncontrolled movement strained fragile tissues and ligaments.

The study suggested as a woman runs a mile, her breasts bounced 135 meters.

~cough~

With the average breast weighing between 200 and 300 grams, this movement puts great stress on the breast’s fragile support structure - the outer skin and connective tissues known as Cooper’s ligaments.

The team found that wearing a T-shirt bra reduced bounce by 38%, and 78% if wearing a sports bra. The study failed to mention the percentage if the breasts were supported by a running partners hand.

“People rightly spend time and effort to get the right footwear for exercise and it is equally important to wear the correct sports bra.”

Slant:

Its a wonder what people did back before clothes were invented. Were there an army of saggy titted women, all with their breasts tied behind their backs like a towel after years of running free in the wild? [You can image the women whipping them around like nunchucks …]
