Wear it
I have these in multiple colours. Black doubles as a cute summer going out top! Great coverage and fit.
Light Support PowerSoft Rib Longline Sports Bra | Old Navy
Love the cut of this top. I wear this for dance, lifting, and it can also double as a cute top for a night out. The material is so soft.
Light Support StudioSmooth Longline Sports Bra | Old Navy
I think they might be discontinuing this one, because I don't see it in any other colours... but has been my go to for YEARS.
Medium Support PowerSoft Racerback Sports Bra | Old Navy
FAVE for everything: running, everyday, dance. These are brushed with the perfect amount of compression and absolutely not see-through. They hold up so well.
OFFLINE By Aerie The Hugger High Waisted Pocket Legging
Love these, no side pocket for a sleeker look. These hold up really well, do not bag out - have had mine for over 2 years and they are still great. Just note that they are not TRUE BLACK as they're brushed material.
OFFLINE By Aerie The Hugger High Waisted Legging (no pockets)
Can confirm these make you lift heavier and hold on longer. I've had lots of gloves but these ones feel so good. I put them through the wash regularly and they are still great after a couple years.
Women's Wunder Train Gloves
The classic. I just started wearing these in the gym and they are perfect, flat enough to feel grounded but still giving support.
Converse Chuck Taylor All Star High-Top Sneaker - Black
Another classic, these are somewhat compressive and don't fall down. They are a bit "slinky". Not see through!
High-Waisted PowerSoft 7/8 Pocket Leggings | Old Navy
These leggings are more of a barely-there feel but still provide enough support IMO. They do have a centre seam which I know is a dealbreaker for some of y'all. These are soft and easy to wear and they don't attract dog hair!
High-Waisted StudioSmooth 7/8 Leggings | Old Navy
Love this classic fit and the Jet Stream colour is my fave.
Full-Zip Hoodie Sweatshirt | Old Navy
Accessories
I like over ear headphones for the gym because I can whip them on or off and they don't fall out of my ears

Never looked back after trying this bottle. Keeps drinks cold forever, no leaking, sip or chug lid, it's perfect 🙏

Love how these fit my ears properly and was super suprised at the sound quality, it's amazing!

Supplement
Supposed to help with gut health, and I do notice a difference vs when not taking it
L Glutamine Powder 5000 mg (5g) | Post Workout Muscle Support, Immunity & Gut Health Supplement | Fermented, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Unflavored L-Glutamine | Single Ingredient, 60 Servings
I had my doubts about this. It has 32G protein and I'm fairly sure it's vegan?! Most importantly it actually tastes so good. Super easy to pack or have as a backup for lunch.
