Exercise and the well insulated

I liked this piece in the New York Times about the problems of exercising if your are carrying a lot of fat.

For many overweight exercisers, every step of a workout comes with an unintended cascade of motion — breasts bounce, belly fat shakes and thighs rub. The added jiggle and friction of moving body fat is more than just bothersome. It can alter people’s gait and make them more prone to injuries and joint problems. The discomfort prevents many overweight people from exercising altogether.

One of those great upfront questions
What sports bra do you use?”

The article references Dr Joanna Scurr and she is doing research one would love to know more about. Lots of breast research and in passing, mention of research on an anti-cellulite and core stability device.
What is that all about ?
