Clothes 🧢
As a top heavy girlie, I only wear sports bras that are bra sized. Old Navy has been my go-to since I started lifting almost 10 years ago. They carry bra sized sports bras. I wear a 34DD and it is true to size. Make sure on the website to filter for ...
Sports Bras | Old Navy - Bra Sized
For a splurge, this will always be my go-to store. They are from Australia, their prices have always been reasonable even after the pandemic where many brands raised their prices. Top notches quality, I have leggings that are 7 years old and the colo...
Muscle Nation - Gym Leggings, Shorts, Everything
I like this brand - don’t love. The reason why I recommend it is because if you want to feel extra baddie, this brand will get you there. Clothes are maximalist in design and prints, they have drops very often and do collabs with cool shows (especial...
Darc Sport - If you want to feel extra
These are a perfect dup of almost every brand. I love the flare ones specifically. The fabric is buttery soft and the price is chefs kiss 😚
UNISSU Leggings
Shoes 👟
Everyone needs a pair of high top white Converse. They are pretty ok for lifting, not my favorite but my go-to if I want to look extra cute. Recommend for leg day and a cute looking outfit 😁
Converse White High Tops
My favorite lifting shoes. This show provides ankle stability and the sole makes it so that the shoe grips to the floor allowing you power for push or pull movement without your foot sliding. This is my go to for upper and lower body. NOT GOOD FOR RU...
Nike Metcon
Under Armor Project Rock shoes - I have these in a color variation of white and gray. These shoes provide perfect heel and ankle support for heavy lifts. Similar to the Nike metcons, they grip your foot to the floor and give you amble support for lif...
Project Rock 3 - Under Armor Lifting Shoe 👟
Accessories 💁🏻♀️
Highly highly recommend. I used to never care for “gym accessories” until I couldn’t do heavier lifts because my wrists, hands, and forearm were killing me. These grips basically do the job allowing you to push yourself. They stabilize the wrist help...
Versa Gripps Wrist Straps & Lifting Grips
I have the second version of the Apple watch and honestly it works perfectly. I know many people like to get the newer ones but it gets the job done if you don’t want to go overboard 🤷🏻♀️
Apple Watch
This is definitely a splurge. You can only use the WHOOP with a subscription and it is not a watch, it is a tracking device. The subscription is covered by HSA/FSA so that’s that. Now, it has many cool features, for starters the battery of the latest...
WHOOP
My favorite gym bottle, ever!! Daily bottle really. It doesn’t leak at all when the straw is closed. Beautiful design and keeps water cold for hours. Easy to clean and I just love having it. Mine is hot pink - the one in the picture. I recommend this...
HydroJug
I use this everyday at the gym. Since the machines are all metal, it sticks to almost any surface at the gym. I love it to put my phone and be able to use the work apps without having to leave my phone in the bag. Great accessory and very inexpensive...
Magnetic Phone Holder for Gym Workouts, 360° Adjustable Phone Mount Compatible with iPhone 12-17 Series, Portable Fitness Accessory for Men & Women - TikTok Shop
Extreme affordability- like so affordable. And great quality. Sometimes I have to reset my phone for them to connect but other than that they work beautifully and for the price they are a no-brainer 💕

My go-to protein powder. Mind you, I don’t drink a scoop of protein daily, I add it to my oats here and there and I buy it to make Ice-cream for my husband on the Ninja Creami. It is not cheap, but this brand is EXTREMELY CLEAN and I trust it because...
Legion Whey+ | Grass-Fed Whey Protein Powder
More affordable protein option. Tastes good and it is also pretty clean.
Buy Impact Whey Protein Isolate
This is the only creatine I consume. I find that most creatines are ridiculously expensive and have added stuff. This one is a very fine powder, not grainy at all and has worked well throughout the years. Very affordable and the brand always has deal...
Buy Creatine Monohydrate Powder
This pre-workout is perfect for people who don’t want caffeine in it (Stim Free). But why wouldn’t you want caffeine in a pre-workout? Well, if you are overly sensitive to caffeine, it can be uncomfortable. Or, if you love to drink coffee, then this ...
Legion Pulse Stim-Free | Pre-Workout Without Caffeine
My favorite dessert-like protein bars. These things taste amazing!! These are my favorite flavors: vanilla (the icing is so good!), double chocolate, and strawberry 🍓 Like wow! Not super high in protein but excellent for those with a sweet tooth tha...
