One example is the sports bra which helps to control your breast from bouncing and swinging uncontrollably which may result in decrease level of performance fo the exercise and may provide discomfort to the person doing the exercise.

-Pick clothes that hugs the body and are made up of light materials. Clothes that hug the body are recommended to be used because if you wear loose clothes, tendency is that there may be some parts that may swing and flap when you are doing your exercise routines and will distract you from properly performing the exercise.
