Summer Workout Routine

My energy levels and workout preferences always seem to fluctuate with the seasons, and with summer on the horizon—and warmer temperatures already here—I’m feeling more energized and motivated to get outside and move my body than I have all year. While I try to listen to my body and base my workouts on a variety of factors including my energy on any given day, how well I slept the night before, the day I have ahead of me–the majority of the time I end up doing pilates whether it be a low impact, slow flow, or something with higher intensity where my heart rate is increasing and I’m still getting that good old pilates burn.

Paramount to a good workout is a good workout outfit and my go-to (for years, I might add!) is lululemon. I live in their Align pants (no really…if you’ve ever seen me out and about chances are I’m wearing them) and truly, nothing else compares, so naturally for summer-those outdoor workouts and the post workout brunch-my go-to is the Align Short and the Energy Long Line bra because they are the ultimate in comfort and breathability. Plus, so cute with a light blazer thrown on top and some sneakers!

The Align material is so soft, so buttery, so breathable, so sleek—it is the absolute best and takes my workout and my style to the next level. It’s like I keep buying clothes but every single day I end up in my Aligns because it just feels weightless which is perfect for the summer months.

Another style hack I do often is buy sports bras that double as cute crop tops and the Energy Bra Long Line bra is just that; it features slick and low-friction support, a clean strappy back design, and a streamlined front that offers amazing support during activity—and looks great off-duty, too.
