Breast support is not just a comfort issue. It is a performance, health, and injury risk issue.
In this episode of the Femme FC Podcast, Nicole sits down with Nichola Renwick, Senior Research Associate at the University of Portsmouth, to unpack the science of breast biomechanics and why it matters in women’s soccer.
Nichola explains how breasts move during running, jumping, and cutting, why breast movement occurs in three directions, and how inadequate support can change stride length, breathing patterns, muscle activation, and ground reaction forces. She also discusses how breast pain influences athlete confidence and movement, and how cultural norms in women’s sport can impact sports bra choices.
