A few weeks ago I shared with you my Favorite Healthy Things, but as I was getting ready to go to the gym this morning I realized I hadn’t share with you some of my favorite fitness clothing and gear. So, today I’m sharing all my favorite gear…basically, everything I put on and/or take with me when I workout.
Polar FT4 Heart Rate Monitor – I’ve mentioned before how much I love this thing! I’m definitely a numbers nerd, so I love being able to watch my numbers as I workout and set goals for improving them. Plus, there is just something motivating about watching your hard work show up in number form. Today I’m giving you the chance to WIN one of your own, so don’t forget to head to the bottom of this post to enter!
Albion Fit Leggings – I told you about how much I love Albion Fit in {this post} last week. I’ve been so impressed with this company and I LOVE my Albion leggings. They are the only pair of workout pants I own that I don’t have to pull and tug at. They hold in all my wiggly parts and stay put through my entire workout! Remember, right now you enter to WIN an Albion Fit Gift Card, or use the special Feel Great in 8 coupon codeย and get a pair for yourself. I promise you’ll love them!
A Good Quality Sports Bra – Until about 6 months ago I was wearing two old/cheap sports bras layered on top of each other for “support”. I had no idea what I was missing until I finally invested in a good quality sports bra. This is especially important if you have larger breasts. Being comfortable in your workout gear is important if you are going to stick to an exercise routine longterm. Now I own two good quality and actually supportive sports bras. I did a lot of research and tried on quiet a few different brands before I found my favorites. The two that I love are the Panache Women’s Underwired Sports Bra and the Natori Womens Power Yogi Bra. I am a DD and they are both comfortable and super supportive without squishing the girls. If you don’t own a quality sports bra yet, I highly recommend you invest in one.
Old Navy Tanks – I splurge and spend a little more on my leggings and bras, but I make up for it with my favorite Old Navy tank. It’s called the Active Mesh-Bubble Tank and I’ve never paid more than $5 for one. In fact, they are on sale for $5 right now on www.oldnavy.com! They are cool and breathable, and the tie around the waist means I don’t have to feel self-concious about my post-baby tummy. I have it in 5 different colors and wear one pretty much every day.
Contigo Water Bottle – This is another one that I mentioned in my last favorites post. I take one of these Contigo Water Bottle‘s with me to the gym every day and then refill it all day long to make sure I get my 64 ounces of water or more. For some reason I drink more when using a straw and I love the combo of a straw and a spill-proof top.
So, there you go! Everything I put on and take with me when I workout! I hope it helps you find some things you love! Don’t forget to stick around and enter to WIN a Polar Heart Rate Monitor!
