Can you believe that the holidays are around the corner? I feel like I blinked then September and October disappeared.
This year has felt like a time warp, but I hope that everyone is able to find some joy in this upcoming holiday season, safely and healthily.
Every year for Christmas my mom asks me for a wish list (even as an adult, yes I am a little spoiled). For a long time now, I have always included at least one fitness related item. Something to build my at-home workout equipment, but more than likely new workout clothes or shoes. So I wanted to share with you some of my favorite fitness items, with a bigger emphasis on at-home workout equipment since most of us are not going to the gym any time soon, if ever.
At the end, I am also including my favorite hair tools and products. I constantly get asked about my hair. How I keep up the color, how I curl it, blow it out, and most importantly how in the world can I go 7-10 days on average between washes despite my active lifestyle. So here you go!
**I own 90% of the things linked on this page, so let me know if you have any questions!
For the runner in your life:
Females
I want to add a note on here and tell you that there is NO OTHER better max support sports bra than a VS one. I know there are a lot of opinions out there on them as a company, but they are my one and only when I get dressed for a run.
Also, for running shoes these are the best for me as a neutral stride runner. If you are buying these for yourself or someone else, find out the proper stride! Then go to the Saucony site and sort by it to find the right shoe for you or them! This is very important. Saucony is hands down my all time favorite.
Saucony Women's Ride 13 shoes, Fabletics leggings with side pockets, VS sport maximum support sports bra, Fitbit Inspire 2 HR, full zip running jacket, Nathan hydration belt.
Males
Saucony Men's Ride 13 shoes, 5 Pack: Men’s Dry-Fit Moisture Wicking Active Athletic Performance Crew T-Shirt, Pinkbomb Men's 2 in 1 Running Shorts Gym Workout Quick Dry Mens Shorts with Phone Pocket, adidas Men's Own the Run Water-Repellent Jacket, Fossil Men's 42MM Collider HR Heart Rate Stainless Steel and Leather Hybrid HR Smart Watch.
Starting your at-home gym:
The WHATAFIT resistance band set is seriosuly amazing! It basically allows you to turn any door into a cable machine. I am impressed.
Monthly fitness subscription, one on one coaching + personal training, resistance band set with door anchor, ankle strap, and resistance loops, eco friendly, non-slip yoga mat, stability ball, foam roller, fabric loop band.
At-home gym leveled up:
Suspension trainers - my absolute favorite and I take it with me while traveling!
Monthly fitness subscription, one on one coaching + personal training, TRX, pull up bar over door frame, pull up bar height-adjustable, adjustable dumbbell set, adjustable bench.
Workout clothes:
The best of purchasing from Acta wear is that a portion of every purchase goes towards a chairty (clean water, BLM, etc.) and some of their clothes are made of 100% recycled materials.
Acta wear use code: fitnessxd for 15% off your purchase, Fabletics up to 70% off all clothes when you become a member, Stronger animal print set, Ugg slippers, color block leggings, seamless perforated leggings (I own these in pink and dark blue), twist front sports bra.
Perfect Hair:
If your hair gets pretty sweaty during workouts or runs, then spray the crown and back of your hair with dry shampoo, then put on your headband so that it touches both your forehead and hair. This will prevent too much sweat from soaking into your hair! This is my secret to marathon training and not washing my hair for over a week at a time.
The rest of the items are what I use to style my hair or keep it healthy. Many thanks to my hair stylist for these product recommendations over the years!
