Let me be honest from the get go. I am not, nor have I ever been a fan of working out, like the majority of the females I know. But, understanding the benefits of working out and building strength, I force myself to try to keep a regimented workout schedule regardless.

Basically, rain or shine, happy or sad, I get my butt off to the gym, or a class, a minimum of 2-3 days a week. I am working on trying to get that number up to 4, but for now, this will do.

To help myself stay motivated, especially on days that I do not want to go, I look forward to wearing some cute workout gear. When I change my focus from the workout to the outfit, without changing the routine, things seem to always go down much easier.

One thing that I have realized throughout the years is that the shoes you wear are everything. Finding the right sneakers for your foot can be a really daunting task. I needed a pair that would fit my foot, with its high arch, and support me through leg day as much as it would through my cardio workouts. These leather Adidas sneakers have been a lifesaver for many years now, and I plan on keeping them around until they are destroyed (which may be in a very long time seeing as I treat them like royalty).

Once the sneakers are settled, finding the rest is so much easier, as more and more big box retailers offer workout clothes available at a suitable price for any budget. Free Weights

My above outfit, for example, consists of a tee I found at Forever 21 and workout Puma leggings that I got from Asos. Nothing too fancy, but the clothes fit my workout needs!

Seeing as we all spend more and more time behind our desks instead of moving around, it’s extremely important to find some means of exercising and getting our bodies moving. If the gym isn’t for you, it’s also ok to join a class, or look for other ways that may not be as popular.

I use my outfits as my daily motivation, but please feel free to share with me what motivates you.

I hope you all have a great week! If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me!
