My two favorite brands – Zella at Nordstrom and Champion at Target – both carry plus sizes. My biggest challenge is bras – Moving Comfort works for me, but some women need even more support.

Wow, this has been my dilemma for the past few weeks! I teach group fitness but I am a bigger lady. I wear Old Navy a lot and still have a lot of their clothing!

My dilemma over the past few weeks, or years to be more accurate.

Old Navy is usually my go-to. I’m a size 20 and I fit in their XXL straight sizes (in stores). Junonia also has fantastic stuff, but are more expensive (they seem to last forever though!)

I just recently started up a company for plus-sized women’s sportswear myself. Take a look at our website – http://www.monalion.com – we only have a very small collection right now, but there’s new stuff coming this fall!

If you are looking for bloggers to review your products, let me know. My blog “Adventures of a Part Time Wheeler” talks about being a fat disabled dancer/yoga practitioner/gym rat and I love talking about workout clothes 🙂

Cool! I’ll keep that in mind for when our new collection is ready this fall.

I go to Addition Elle, the price point is a bit high but the quality is quite good.
I’ve also snagged decent running tights and yoga pants at Wal-Mart.
My best workout bra I got at a bra store and foolishly clipped out the tags without writing down the brand 🙁 that bad boy is engineered for awesomeness.

I wear men’s basketball shorts and an assortment of athletic t-shirts (unisex cut, loose as possible) from different events. I’ve found some Champion bras that are good enough. I tried on some of the recommended sports bras for larger women, but they felt more uncomfortable to me. I’m okay with a little bounce, for as much as I run.
