Workout Apparel & 2018 Goals with Lululemon

Can you believe that we start a new year next week?! While creating resolutions for the upcoming year is pretty cliché, it is incredibly motivating to set personal goals to improve who you are as a person.

I have a number of goals for the year but after at least four years of *thinking* about it, I’m vowing action in 2018. I’m committing to a consistent workout schedule. It’s literally been about six years since I’ve been in the routine but let’s do it together!

I’m ready to be stronger and I have a long way to go. But to get me started, I’ve teamed up with Lululemon in The Empire Mall to take the first natural step: comfortable {and cute!} outfits. 😉

Lululemon is incredibly new to The Empire Mall and when I found out they were coming I was so excited to check it out. I had never tried any of their apparel before and I had heard nothing but raving reviews. When I swung by Lululemon to put together a couple of mom-friendly workout looks, I had so many options were at my fingertips. Local ladies: this. is. a. huge. deal. We are SO lucky to have them in Sioux Falls! Their store is full of gym-ready goodness.

The first look I put together is perfect to take from your workout routine and then out to run errands. Throw in some dry shampoo and no one will even know you’ve been to the gym {other than the dead give-away being your kick-butt arms. ;)} This poncho was SO cozy and could be worn well beyond these leggings. Although if you’ve heard about these leggings, you’ve likely been told you will never go back to any other type of workout leggings. And I’m here to tell you: all of the rumors are true. By far the BEST leggings I have EVER tried. I don’t even know how to properly describe them other than they live up to the hype. You have to go try them for yourself.

Another thing I didn’t know about Lululemon: they have great accessories that go with you from errands, to gym, to date night. Exhibit A: this gold clutch. Instant love connection. So stinkin’ cute!

This second look is exactly the kind of thing I plan to suit up in for weekly classes. Again with the leggings, friends. Put them on and you won’t leave the store without them. And you know how much I love fun patterns. Well now we can incorporate them into our outfits as we hit the gym. There are so many to choose from!

This top was also beyond comfortable and was perfect to layer with this versatile vest. As midwestern ladies, we know that we’re going to need some layers just to get from the car and into the gym. This is exactly what we’ve been looking for. Still cold in class? Keep this bad boy on because it’s movable and can keep up with all of your sweet moves. 😉

Again – we are so incredibly lucky to have this retailer in The Empire Mall right here in Sioux Falls. This is a must-stop shop and offers knowledgable staff, all ready to help you {and even the most clueless of shoppers… i.e. me} find just the right workout gear.

My game plan for this workout routine: weight training – three to four times a week. If you have any tips to share, comment below! If you’re just jumping into this with me… let me know! Let’s encourage each other! I will definitely need it.
