Protein
BEST milk in my opinion. No tummy troubles - even my lactose intolerant friend can consume this! Great protein 👍🏼 I use it for all my healthy recipes, cooking, baking and with protein powder.

Have to stop myself from binging on these: they taste SO good. No chalky or grainy consistency either. Easy way to pack in a solid amount of protein and super conveniently packaged for on the go.
Core Power Protein Shakes: High Protein Drinks for Recovery and ...
Awesome protein value in these and great that I can buy individual travel friendly packets. So far I’m loving the Sugar Cookie and Salted Caramel flavors most. Pro tip: mix in a shaker bottle with super cold Fairlife milk and it tastes like a heavenl...
Gourmet Whey Protein Powders - ProDough
I like this brand a lot - it’s backed by Dr. Stacy Sims (health and wellness mastermind) and Arnold Schwarzenegger! They have tons of products, but I specifically tried their protein powder in the vanilla and strawberry flavors. The taste is good, it...
Momentous Protein Powders - NSF Certified
Sometimes the tried and true products are enough. I have tested so many protein powders and truthfully, Quest just delivers - on taste, on macros, on mix-ability, price and accessibility (always in the grocery store). I really like the vanilla flavor...
High Protein Low Sugar Gluten Free Powder - Quest Nutrition
I tried this brand for the first time recently, specifically for their protein powder and really liked it! The vanilla was delicious and I’ve enjoyed using this for my protein shakes with Fairlife milk and crushed ice. The salted caramel flavor was g...
Protein Powders & Supplements for Sale - 1UP Nutrition
These are LEGIT. So tasty, just like cookie dough, you get a ton in one package so serving size is solid and the macros are just outstanding if you consider this a snack or a dessert! They have two flavors and I bought both and trying not to tear my ...
FUUL Protein Cookie Dough, Chocolate Chip
Footwear
I have so many pairs of these socks and they are such good quality because they have lasted me years of use. These are the only socks I’ll wear when walking or working out. They are the right level of thickness: not too much, but enough to keep your ...
Womens Running Socks | Comfort & Performance by Saucony
Haven’t tried this brand yet, but know a lot of people who swear by this brand for workout sneakers and out for the day running errands shoes.
Women's Shoes: For Sports & Everyday Style - On Running
I have had a “flat” pair of sneakers from No Bull (in pink 💁🏽♀️) that work amazingly for my strength training and weight exercises. They now have so much more variety and I’m psyched to try some of their new styles!
Women's Athletic Shoes & Sneakers | NOBULL
These shoes are made for people whose jobs or lifestyles have them on their feet all day long and while that’s not me, I was intrigued because I always seem to have pain after wearing any kind of shoe for too long. I have to say I loved these. They’r...

As someone who gets shin splints almost every time I leave the house 🤦🏽♀️ these sneakers have been a game changer for cushion, comfort and spring. Plus they come in so many different styles and really fun color combos!

Sports bras
Big fan of Alo’s sports bras. They are pricey, but I wait for them to go on sale and snatch up a few at a time. They’re so supportive, but don’t dig in on all the usual places! They have great options for full coverage, too. When I work out, I don’t ...
Bras & Bralettes for Womens - Alo Yoga
Supplements
This stuff is a life saver!! Started taking it about an hour before bed, nightly. Not only does it help me fall asleep which is not something that comes easily to my frantic, overthinking mind, but it helps tremendously with my frequent muscle aches....
Pure Encapsulations Magnesium Glycinate
I was hesitant to try these because I wasn’t sure if they were just another gimmick and I didn’t understand the name - I was wrong. These are amazing - they taste pretty darn good and provide so much in such a little package, it’s a no brainer. I was...

I have been using the MyFitnessPal app for soooooo many years and really have to come to feel like I can’t live without it! I always had the free version, which was fantastic, but recently upgraded to the premium version (paid) and honestly, really g...
MyFitnessPal: Calorie Tracker & BMR Calculator to Reach Your Goals
It seems everyone is talking about this app lately! I think Cronometer is the second most popular and trusted fitness and tracking app, next to MyFitnessPal. I started trying it out and it was fine, but after using MyFitnessPal for so many years, it ...
Cronometer: The Most Accurate Nutrition Tracking App
Did you know if you download the Dick’s Sporting Goods app and create a profile for yourself, then link your fitness tracking device to it, you can earn points for exercising (that you’re probably already doing anyway)!? You can then use the points y...
DICK'S Sporting Goods - App Store - Apple
I’m obsessed with this app and have been using it for years. Even if you don’t think you’re the type of person who can meditate or who wants to, give this app a try. My absolute favorite feature in it is their sleep stories - they help me fall asleep...

Weights
Target’s got your back when it comes to outfitting your home gym without breaking the bank. I don’t even have these fancy stands or holders (they just sit on my basement floor 🤭), but I like the grip and feel of the coated dumbbells especially. I’ve...
Dumbbells - Target
I have a couple sets of Bala bands in different weights which are great to add when you want a little extra or to increase your dumbbells to an in between weight. Think of them like a weighted vest for your wrists or ankles! They have lots of other f...

This speaker may be small, but it packs a huge punch on quality sound and volume. I love this speaker for workouts especially because it’s light, small and can be charged, so I can put it anywhere I’m working out and don’t have to deal with headphone...
Roam 2: Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker - Sonos
Gotta have good wireless headphones ready and charged for your workout! I don’t use them if I’m at home and no one else is around, but if at a public gym or going for a walk outside, I need something to listen to and to get myself pumped up.

Working out as a woman is complicated - there are so many factors. One of those complicating factors can be underwear. To wear any or not to wear any while exercising? Which kind? I get so sweaty and seriously cannot be bothered with a wedgie while I...

Taking an epsom salt bath or soaking your feet with epsom salt is one of those old school, home remedies that I often forget about and then wonder why because it’s really magical. Treat yourself to a relaxing soak with some of this, especially post w...

I know there are a million styles and types of water bottles to choose from, but for me personally, my emotional support water bottle is a white RTIC with a green bottom sleeve (silicone so it doesn’t go flying all over the place) and a fuchsia color...
RTIC Outback Bottle: Leak-Proof, Insulated for All-Day Use
I use shaker bottles a minimum of twice a day, every day, so I was looking for a way to get away from the usual plastic containers. I found Bolde Bottle and was really pleasantly surprised and happy with them. I bought two bottles so I always have on...

Scents
As a busy person, I don’t always have time to complete a full grooming session after every time I sweat - sorry, it’s just the truth! So I rely on my deodorant to do a pretty big job for me, so I can run errands after a sweaty class and not send the ...
UltraClear Black+White Women's Pure Clean Dry Spray | Degree® US
A few spritzes of this natural deodorant spray before or after a workout really helps and it lasts. It’s not fake smelling or too overwhelming and strong. I’ve tried the vanilla and coconut scents and both are lovely.

Equipment & home gym setup
I just bought these and laid them down on our basement floor to provide some cushion and stability for my workouts. They were inexpensive and so quick and easy to lay out and connect. We had to cut some to fit the unusual size of our space and using ...
Interlocking - Gym Flooring - The Home Depot
This basic, relatively inexpensive and very easy to put together piece of equipment totally leveled up my home gym. I got one that can lay all the way flat or be on an incline or even a decline. It’s pretty compact too, so really doesn’t take up that...
Weight Benches in Home Gyms - Walmart.com
These are clutch to have in your workout arsenal. Ideal package as they include light, medium and heavy strength.
Fitness Accessories - Marika
Seriously, if you don’t already have one of these: what are you doing!? I haven’t used a full sized blender in forever because this little gadget that doesn’t take up much space and is so powerful on its own, has been my best friend in the kitchen. I...
Ninja Nutribullet - Amazon.com
Not a must have for your home gym, but it is definitely a nice to have. Not only can you do lots of exercises with the ball itself, but it’s especially helpful to modify certain exercises for stability or mobility and comfort.
Swiss Ball - Amazon.com
We splurged and bought a NordicTrack treadmill a few years ago and have zero regrets. I have kept up with the paid subscription to the iFIT programming for it, too. Where do I begin? As someone who loathes running and really doesn’t get a kick out of...

I really don’t like buying my fish from the grocery store - I don’t completely trust where it came from and more importantly how long ago it was caught. You’d think I’d be able to get fresh caught fish easily in coastal southern Maine! Wulf’s Fish is...
