Looking through my workout wardrobe, I have a wide array of brands that I buy: Nike, Under Armour, Lululemon, Athleta, Gap, Champion (from Target), Impact Fitness, Adidas, Zumbawear, Old Navy, Marika, BCG (Academy brand), Avia, etc.
I know, I know. It’s a lot, but it’s part of the job. Truth is, I love workout clothes. I would rather shop for workout clothes than anything. When my 19-year-old daughter and I go shopping, usually around the halfway point of our shopping trip, I have to make a vow to her that I won’t shop for anymore workout wear.
In each store we enter, I feel the strong gravitational pull of the workout section. I’m powerless to it.
Some of my workout clothes are pricey and some are downright cheap, but, like dear children, I love them all. A couple of my “children” stand out as exceptional, so I thought I would pass along my favorite expensive and non-expensive pieces that I currently wear.
Favorite Pricey Item
Lululemon Energy Bra
$48.00
Oh my, how I love this sports bra. I’m a jumper. I love plyo and any move that is big and requires lots of power, but there are certain things that I want to stay put while I do these awesome power moves, you know? This bra is fantastic for that. It also gives a nice shape without the dreaded “uniboob” look. I have several colors and love them all!
Favorite Non-Pricey Item
C9 by Champion Capri Leggings
$27.99
These fun tights are cute, comfy and launder well. No matter if I’m teaching my body sculpting or Zumba classes or running or doing yoga, I am comfortable and don’t have to worry about them riding up or down. Also, they look and feel much more expensive than they are. Such a win!
Happy shopping!
