Hello hello hello! If you’re new around here, or not following me on Instgram let me do a quick little intro about my fitness “journey” right now. Haha, how hippie-dippie do I sound? BUT if you’ve been just following my blog and nothing else you would be a little shocked at why all of a sudden I think I’m a fitness blogger.
Pre-world pandemic I was starting to find a groove for working out. I finally found what worked for me, and what I genuinely loved! But, I was still only working out 1-2 times a week. Then quarantine hit and all of my favorite studios started closing. I knew I still wanted to stay active and not let all my “progress” stop just because I couldn’t go to a spin or barre class. That’s when YouTube became my BFF and I started to really enjoy working out at home! Before, I never pushed myself when I was working out by myself. But, I found some deep-rooted motivation and started consistently working out 5-7x a week. So fast forward to now – I’m really loving fitness & health and have been loving sharing it all over on my Instagram!
I have been getting a ton of requests to share more workout pieces, so your wish is my command! I rounded up a few of my must-have pieces in my closet and giving you all the details. I wanted to note two things: 1. all tops have padding and 2. everything I share is great for both low and high impact workouts. I really only like my workout clothes to be super supportive!
SPORTS BRA’S / TOPS
WHITE & PINK SPORTS BRA | SMALL
I was in desperate need of nice, secure sports bra’s that I could run in. I have a dozen sports bra’s but some are just cute, and really do nothing when it comes to support. This brand is so good, and I will be purchasing many more from them! The sports bra’s wash well, and have padding. There is a seam down the middle so when washing the padding doesn’t budge!
STRAPPY NAVY SPORTS BRA | SMALL
This sports bra genuinely makes me smile! It’s made of such a lux material, that I was so surprised that it was from Amazon. It feels much more expensive! It’s extremely well made, has padding and is comfortable. Checks off all the boxes!
BLACK CAMI | SMALL *I’m a 32B in bra’s*
This is one of my absolute favorite workout tops right now! Which is hard to say, because they’re actually all my favorites haha. But this one is so good! Just looking at it, it doesn’t look supportive at all… right? I thought the same thing when I saw it on someone else! But, I’m here to say I’ve ran in this thing a handful of times and it’s somehow so supportive. It’s extremely comfortable too and has padding! It also has an elastic band right underneath your chest, so you really do feel so secure.
LONGLINE SPORTS BRA | XSMALL
It’s a yellow sports bra, so need I say more? If I see yellow, I have to have it! I love the fit of this one, and how comfortable it is.
MESH CROP TOP | XS
Forgot to take a picture of this one, but it’s such a good top! It’s breathable, with mesh in the back! It’s a cropped fit, but not a true crop top! Perfect with high waisted bottoms.
SHORTS
Probably the most “pricey” item in this whole blog post – but they’re still pretty affordable for activewear! As I’ve been working out a lot more and wearing workout clothes almost 7 days a week I’ve been more comfortable spending a bit more! Especially to get good quality. When it comes to running shorts there’s definitely a specific fit and look that I like. I like them to be a bit lose around my legs, and they must have a pocket! These are my favorite because they have a zipper pocket, so everything stays secure. They’re also a really nice light fabric, and perfect for Houston heat!
BLACK BIKER SHORTS & GRAY BIKER SHORTS (BOTH SMALL)
Just using the same photos as above! I’ve been loving biker shorts instead of leggings lately, as it’s been so hot! I strictly wear running shorts to run, so these are my go-to for at home workouts!
SHOP THE POST
That’s a wrap on all my favorite pieces! I will definitely be back soon with more workout clothes!
