Tricks, tips and the right bras to start off the new year in fine form

The holidays are over and the last round of turkey leftovers is gone. Phew! Now it’s time to get back into shape, make healthy resolutions for the new year and take care of yourself. WonderBra has a simple and efficient way to take you there. So, let’s go!

1 – Get off to a good start by choosing an activity you enjoy

Are you the zen or traditional type? With only 20 to 30 minutes of activity 2 to 3 times a week, you can burn off those excess calories stored up while hibernating over the holidays. It doesn’t matter which activity you choose. What counts is that it suits your lifestyle and that it’s fun.*

Zen-style exercise with gentle moves
This exercise style became popular several years ago and has become increasingly widespread. Exercises like yoga and Pilates help firm up your muscles, while improving your flexibility and posture. These low-impact exercises generate high returns, since they make you work on small hard-to-reach muscles that people tend to forget. You can exercise in a group or on your own at home. All you need is an exercise pad. Since these are floor exercises, the impact on joints (knees, etc.) is minimal.

Traditional exercise that keeps you on the move
Jogging, aerobics and spinning are ideal sports for women who like to stretch their legs and work up a sweat. These types of exercise give you a good cardio and endurance workout, while melting off those extra pounds. You can exercise in a group (with a teacher) or own your own. Tip: Exercising while listening to lively music makes you feel more motivated.

2 – The right bra from the WonderBra Sports Bra collection

Whether you just want to go for a stroll or work out at the gym, think about buying an activity-appropriate sports bra. Just like running shoes, a sports bra is a must-have accessory. The four bras below are suitable for all activities. Regardless of your shape or size, WonderBra Sports bras can be adjusted for maximum comfort and support. They highlight your feminine curves, and provide maximum support when you need it most during activities.

Ultra-soft COOLMAX® breathable moisture-wicking fabric, styles 5126 and 5127 help you stay dry, while providing ultimate comfort. Soft back closures help reduce skin irritation.

Style 5925 is the perfect bra with breathable fabric, seamless cups, adjustable shoulder straps and a V-shaped back that provide the right level of support and superior fit.

Style 5926 – Wide camisole shoulder straps provide stability and athletic styling, while its two-ply molded cups and wide elastic under bust band provide the right level of support and superior fit.

The WonderBra sports Bra collection is incredibly comfortable and well designed with special features that adapt to your body. Click here for information about sizes, more details and suggested retail prices.

What’s your basic starting point? The right size, of course!
Since the holidays festivities and some minor weight fluctuations, your bra size may have changed. It’s important to wear a properly fitted bra. Remember that your bra size may also have changed if you:

- Have lost or gained weight
- Have started or stopped an exercise program
- Are pregnant or just gave birth
- Have not had your measurements taken in more than a year

To guide you with your measurements, we recommend that you visit a professional fitter at your favorite store. A few minutes of your time can make a world of difference!
As always, WonderBra is here to support you. We would love to hear your comments, suggestions and questions.

Thank you for participating in such large numbers in the “Win $10,000 Cash from WonderBra Contest,” which closed on November 13.

Results from our contest survey question “What would you do with $10,000?” were interesting. Of course, the weather may have something to do with it… With winter around the corner, people obviously had visions of beaches and palm trees dancing in their heads!  The largest group (27.52%) of respondents said they would use $10,000 to “go on a vacation.” Note that the survey didn’t ask with whom you would take your vacation. We left that to your imagination… The first group of would-be-vacationers was closely followed by those who would “go on a shopping spree!” (27.29%). Third place went to “renovate my home” at 18.35%.

In addition to the $10,000 cash prize, one WonderBra bra of the winner’s choice was drawn per day for 15 days.

The $10,000 cash prize winner is Bonnie Whitelock from Grande Prairie, Alberta. Click here to view the complete list of winners.

The ”On the Move with WonderBra” contest is now closed. Thank you for participating!

As part of its new sports bra launch, WonderBra held a draw so several lucky contestants could win its latest bra. During the contest, nine bras were drawn for nine active or newly active women.

There was a tight race between your answers to the contest entry survey question “Which exercise makes you swear the most?” Bodybuilding?* Doing sit-ups? All the answers made you break a sweat, but the gold medal goes to (drum roll please!) “climbing stairs while carrying grocery bags” with 28.54% of the votes.

We obviously have some chefs among our readers, but they sure don’t like dragging their groceries up the stairs! Yet climbing stairs provides a thorough aerobic workout and helps tone the muscles in your thighs, calves and buttocks—not to mention guaranteed bounce-free climbing with the new WonderBra sports bra. Talk about a winning team! With all that carrying, you’ll be strengthening your arm muscles too. What’s inside those grocery bags is another story…

Thank you for participating. Staying motivated is the best way to be active and healthy. Good luck! Click here to view the complete list of winners.

There’s no doubt about it… Everyone knows that you’re supposed to wear a sports bra when you’re physically active. To prevent sagging or loss of muscle tone, you need a high-quality, properly adjusted bra that breathes and provides good support. If you choose the wrong type of bra…watch out…because you could end up with more than sagging and poor muscle tone. You could also suffer from perspiration, irritation and feel extremely uncomfortable!

Designed for women on the move or those who simply want to stretch their legs…the all-new WonderBra Style 5127 combines all the benefits of a great sports bra for high-impact activities with looks to kill. Manufactured with two COOLMAX® fabrics that let your skin breathe and AirFormTM, a revolutionary breathable fabric that molds to the body. The two-tone elastic, sliding straps are convertible to ensure total comfort. Your back will thank you for the foam-back Comfort Closure that helps reduce skin irritation. The new Style 5127 is available at Walmart, The Bay and specialty boutiques for the manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $41.00.

Whether you go for a stroll or work out at the gym, a properly fitted bra is as important as the shoes you buy. So…1-2-3…go! Run for your life!

Be pretty in pink and complete the look with the matching 772 control-top panty. Actually, you can be more than pretty in pink…be sexy too! The lace inserts on the sides give you sexier looking hips and longer looking legs. The elastic-free front panel lets you breathe, while shaping and controlling the upper tummy area. The gusset is, of course, lined with 100% cotton.

The WonderBra limited edition of pink bra Styles 7472 and 772 are available at Sears, The Bay and select specialty stores across Canada for the manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $39.25 for Style 7472 and $21.75 for Style 772.

Though the bra looks a little bare at first, it was actually very intricately designed to make Ms. Monroe look like she wasn’t wearing any. Auctioneer Richard Davie notes that the rock-solid bra is embedded with 4 cups and steel wiring. “There’s an inner cup, which is almost hidden, which would support her chest as normal,” he says. “But then there’s another larger cup about an inch further out, to give the impression she had a bigger chest.”

The suspension-bridge halter straps gave her even more of a lift. They were also easy to hide under a gown or dress, like the famous white frock Marilyn wore in The Seven Year Itch. Meanwhile, the cups didn’t cover her breasts, giving the illusion that her 36D perk was 100% natural.

All women have beauty secrets, even legends like Marilyn Monroe. Maybe that’s why, in our latest survey, you voted her as the woman who best “personifies the true essence of femininity.” It’s easier to identify with someone who has to put a little effort into herself each morning. And it’s certainly comforting to know Marilyn was no exception.

The auction was held in late July in London, England. The famous bra was sold to an anonymous caller from Hong Kong.

And what about you? You must have comments on this incredible bra and the star who wore it. Why not share them with us? We’d love to know what you think.

No matter what type of figure you have, you’re sure to find a shoe that fits…or rather undergarments that flatter your shape!
