Happy Weekend, friends! Hope you’re having a relaxing, restful few days! I am so happy to be done with classes but not quite ready to get back into study mode for exams next week….rude awakening is in my future come Sunday night! But for now I am enjoying my time chilling out and not having so much pressure piling on. Today I have some awesome fitness focused things to share…so read on!

Who says fitness and fashion are mutually exclusive? Not I!  And today’s post proves just that!

I recently have had the opportunity to try out some awesome fitness gear from two companies that combine functionality with style to make the ultimate workout apparel and accessories!

First up: Tasc Performance!

Tasc Performance gear is different than any other workout apparel on the market because it’s made with bamboo! Their bamboo is sourced from the Sichuan Province in China and the forest is certified by the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and certified organic by OCIA (Organic Crop Improvement Association) and the USDA. Here are some of the many benefits to using bamboo as a fabric:

• Extreme Comfort
• Anti-Odor
• Lightweight Feel
• Breathable and Temperature Regulating
• No Chemicals
• Moisture Wicking
• UPF 50+ and Protexts you from 99% of the Sun’s Harmful Rays
• 4-way Stretch and Supportive of All Types of Movement

I was sent a long sleeve shirt and a pair of running shorts to try out!

I immediately was drawn to the bright vibrant colors of the clothing and could not wait to try them out for an outdoor workout! I picked one of our few sunny, warm days to see how the sweat wicking technology in the clothes worked. I can say that my sweat did not stick to my body at all and the mesh vents on the side of the shirt offered great circulation of air all over my body! There was no way I would overheat in these clothes. The shorts and shirt were both very comfortable as well. Soft fabric without any harsh chemicals or weird additives is perfect for my sensitive skin! I loved the thinness of the shirt as well! Perfect for running in on a chilly morning without being to restrictive or hot as you start to warm up.

I was also a big fan of the hidden pocket that was in the shorts! Perfect for stashing a phone, small change, or an ID card when you’re out and about!

Big thanks to Tasc for letting me test out their gear! I love supporting high quality products that are environmentally and PEOPLE friendly!

Up next: Momentum Fitness Jewelry! Let’s face it, jewelry and fitness typically don’t mesh well. Who wants to have earrings falling out or bracelets getting tangled with your garmin when you’re trying to get your sweat on? Let alone necklaces potentially strangling you as you’re weight lifting!

But Momentum Jewelry has come up with some solutions to these issues. Solutions that allow you to dawn cute jewelry while still staying safe and comfortable during your workout. They call their products ‘designs that move you’ because they literally are made with movement in mind!

I was sent one their Foot Note shoe charms as well as one of their wrap bracelets to try out! All the bracelets and foot notes are completely customizable with whatever colors and phrases you’d like to put on them! I chose black for my Foot Note and got the phrase OWN TODAY. I switched out some laces on a pair of sneakers and now I feel inspired every time I look down and see that simple, but powerful, phrase. For my bracelet I chose eggplant and the phrase POSITIVE ENERGY. Another little reminder I can have on me at all times to reframe my thoughts if they turn negative.

The wrap bracelet is extremely comfortable and there is no way it would fall off or interfere during a workout! I like that these products are made especially with active people in mind because they allow you add a little fun to your fitness look without sacrificing performance!

If you like what you’re seeing here from Momentum, then you’re in luck! They have generously offered to give one of my readers a Foot Note or wrap bracelet of their choosing! So enter below for your chance to win!

And what’s all this fashion without the FITNESS to go with it?! So of course I have a fun workout to share with you all as well! It combines burpees with all sorts of strength, cardio, and body weight moves to get your heart rate pumpin’ in twenty minutes or less!

Let me know if you try it out for yourself!

Do you wear jewelry or makeup when you workout?

Do you go for comfort or cuteness when choosing your workout clothes?

Think you’ll try the new workout?
