FittaMamma Maternity Activewear

Scientifically tested and PROVEN to support

We’ve always believed that women want to stay active during pregnancy and we designed our gorgeous, innovative maternity fitnesswear to provide maximum support for baby bump, achy backs and burgeoning boobs. Since launching our first range, FittaMamma fitnesswear has supported thousands of pregnant women around the world….providing all the comfort, confidence and style they need to stay active throughout their pregnancies.

Along the way our activewear has also helped alleviate pregnancy backache and eased pelvic girdle pain, providing extra support for pregnant women exactly where they need it.

We even developed our own high performance fabric to make absolutely sure it would stretch and support throughout pregnancy, retaining its shape whilst you regain your shape after your baby is born. Buttery smooth against your skin, our fabric wicks moisture and dries quickly.

We’ve always believed our range is the optimum choice for women to stay active during pregnancy – but we wanted PROOF. Indisputable SCIENTIFIC proof.

Meet the Research Team at the UNIVERSITY OF PORTSMOUTH

We commissioned the renowned Research Group in Breast Health at Department of Sport and Exercise Science at the University of Portsmouth, UK to provide an independent, scientific evaluation of our fitnesswear. We wanted to gauge EXACTLY how FittaMamma maternity sportswear makes a difference to women exercising during pregnancy.

Meet the Research Team at the UNIVERSITY OF PORTSMOUTH

The Team is routinely asked by lingerie manufacturers, the military and the health sector to advise on bra design to reduce breast bounce. This is the first time they had tested fitnesswear and measured its potential to reduce the bounce and movement of a pregnancy bump during exercise.

And the results?

Detailed scientific analysis under full test conditions confirmed that FittaMamma maternity fitnesswear provides a massive 48% reduction in bump bounce compared to ordinary maternity vests and leggings. Even relatively gentle exercise generated bump movements of up to 6.2cms when wearing high street leggings, but this reduced to only 3.8cms in the technically designed and supportive FittaMamma maternity wear.

And the results?

That’s almost 50% more support where it matters most! The research also revealed that the pregnant women felt more confident exercising in FittaMamma maternity fitnesswear, with 75% of participants stating they ‘would be more likely to undertake more exercise when wearing FittaMamma maternity fitnesswear’.

And the results?

The participants also liked the level of support and comfort for their backs provided by FittaMamma fitnesswear. They scored FittaMamma at 8.25 out of 10, compared to 3.5 out of 10 for high street maternity wear and rated support for their hips and pelvis at 8.75 out of 10 compared to 3.25 when wearing the comparison vest and leggings.

What does this mean for you?

FittaMamma maternity sportswear supports your bump just like your sports bra supports your boobs. Looking after your precious baby bump by wearing our supportive maternity fitnesswear reduces undue movement, lifting and holding securely.

What does this mean for you?

You can stay fit for you and your baby, fully reassured that your bump is held securely and safely whilst you exercise, with minimal movement and maximum comfort.

What does this mean for you?

Pregnancy can cause lower back ache and pelvic girdle pain, potentially putting some women off exercising. Supporting the bump and reducing the amount of bounce, even during walking will improve your comfort and help you stay active. Holding your bump, back, boobs, hips and pelvis securely enables you to stay active for longer and more regularly throughout your nine months journey enjoying the health benefits of an active pregnancy for both you and your baby.
 
The supportive mesh back panel of our Ultimate maternity sportswear tops looks great and helps keep you cool …but it’s much more than a style feature. The unique cross back technology eases the weight of your bump on to your back and shoulders where you’re naturally stronger. It works in combination with the super stretchy bump-supporting front panel and the wide, stretchy waistband that sits under your bump, hugging your hips and pelvis and holding firmly when your joints start to loosen. A lovely soft inner bra provides the extra boost your boobs will appreciate to supplement your favourite sports bra (trust us - your boobs will never say ‘no’ to extra support during pregnancy!).

And FittaMamma maternity leggings and fitness capris? They work when you workout too. The deep waist panel is cut high to support your bump without neglecting the support your need for your lower back. It’s designed to be worn rolled up or rolled under depending on your activity or your trimester.<br>
We’ve achieved maximum reduction in bump bounce and fit without sacrificing style. What’s not to love about luxe performance fabrics, breathable mesh panels and enough stretch and support to see you through your whole pregnancy? FittaMamma fitnesswear LOOKS awesome too!
We’re the first and the best!

FittaMamma is the ONLY maternity sportswear that has been scientifically tested and PROVEN* to support your baby bump so you can exercise with style and confidence throughout your pregnancy.
* Our products were stringently and independently tested under lab conditions, with pregnant women running on a treadmill.  State of the art techniques were employed: bump movement and kinematic data was tracked using a specialist camera system, muscle activity was tracked using an EMG system, and balance was tested using a pressure pad. Participant’s subjective feedback was collected after performing all the tests in each condition.  The four women involved were an average of 22 weeks pregnant.
