No more racerback sports bras! How wearing the wrong sports bra caused me so much pain

April 19, 2021 Paris B 19 Comments

I’m not a sporty sort of person, so when I buy sports gear, I just buy whichever seems most popular in style, or cheapest in price. I’m not terribly fussy!

no racerback sports bra

When it came to buying sports bras, I read all about how a racerback or cross-back design helped support your boobs better, by holding them in place while you pursue your exercise pursuits. It was also fashionable, and you don’t have the problem of bra straps slipping off your shoulders.

When I was doing light exercises like yoga, it seemed to help. A racerback sports bra, which is one that is crossed at the back, seems to pull your shoulders back too, so you don’t slouch so much. All in all, I thought I was doing the right thing, and stocked up on them as I got more active.

Then, I started wearing athleisure more, and when the regular dog walks started, I found myself wearing my sports bras more and more, for longer and longer hours.

And then I noticed that I started developing a pain and stiffness in my neck and shoulder muscles. It got so bad one day, and I felt so stiff, that I swore up and down that something was wrong with me. But then, on a whim, I did a quick search online, and found that the sports bra could be the problem!

Simplify your life – Downsize your wallet

March 13, 2020 Paris B 9 Comments

For most of my life, my approach to owning a wallet is thus – get the biggest one you can find, that can fit the most number of cards. You never know when it will come in useful.

In fact, when I bought my last wallet, I walked into the store and literally said this – “I’d like to see your biggest wallet that can fit the most number of cards!”

downsizing wallets

I was shown their largest model, that fit a whopping 16 cards, with multiple compartments for bills and notes and receipts, and I picked it up on the spot. It was a whopper, but it served me very well for well on 5 years.

Now, I use one that barely fits 6 credit cards, has just 1 compartment for bills and a little coin pouch. What changed? 😀

5 Things I Love Vol. 4: Life’s Like That

September 30, 2019 Paris B 8 Comments

And just like that, September has come and gone in quite literally, a blink of an eye! While it’s felt, to me, like the past month was slowly plodding by, it’s also felt like it’s flown by. I’m not sure how that’s happened, but it has!

5 things i love vol 4

And we’re into a new installment of 5 Things I Love this month of September 2019. This has quickly become one of my favourite regular segments to compile, as it’s got a far more relaxed feel about it 🙂 I hope you enjoy it too! 😀
