An athletic garment includes connective segments that compensate for motion of an athlete wearing the athletic garment. Right and left connective segments couple right and left arm segments of the garment to a torso segment, respectively. Thus, the connective segments may overlay the armpit areas of the athlete. The connective segments are composed of an elastic material such that as the athlete raises the arms of the athlete, there is minimal or no shifting of the torso segment. Further, the garment includes sensors that contact the skin of the athlete and generate physiological data such as activation levels of the athlete's muscles. Due to the movement compensation provided by the connective segments, sensors located on the torso segment may not shift as much while the athlete is performing exercises, which can allow the sensors to generate more reliable and accurate physiological data.
