WORKOUT WARDROBE WINS

11/21/2020

I have so much to stay about workout wear best practices.

1. Preselect. Choosing your outfit the night before sets you up for showing up!
2. Fit. Comfortable, functional product is a must. Is it the right bra support? Is it warm/cool enough? Does the fabric allow full movements? Is it breathable? Fast drying?
3. Style. Feeling like you look good is motivating. This is SO true that when clients tell me they are in a fitness slump I’ve been known to recommend a new outfit.

The Align short is a wardrobe staple for me. But the Wunder Train Crop and the Leg 🦵🏽 Warmers made a debut appearance today. The top fit like a 🧤 and the leg warmers never slid down. Big workout wardrobe win.

What are your staple items? And have you added any fun new products lately?

My WARRIOR journey began with a deep admiration & respect of Ellen de Werd’s mastery of exercise physiology. Combine that with her encouraging playful vibe and full body workouts choreographed to great music. The WARRIOR crew (instructors & participants) have kept me engaged with their supportive and friendly group dynamics whereby I leave each workout feeling tired yet stronger, and grateful. - Rhoda J.
