Exercise Song for the Day.



If you want a funky and fresh sound that will motivate you, La Roux is a great artist to workout to. Her  electronic beats bring fun to any workout. Personally, I want music that builds my confidence, which allows me to zone out. This takes away the  reminder of the intense workout I am engaging in.

Greatest Accessories for Yoga:

As a yoga girl, I have come across my fair share when it comes to yoga trends. I don't rely too much on looking the part, rather focus more on comfort. However, I have found some essential items that are comfortable, stylish, and within a budget. Sign me up!!!

Yoga Bag:

The LULULEMON Effortless TOTE Gym Mat Bag is a definite must. The bag is $142 and is well with the price. Now, I know for the price of it, you could name off the items of things to buy, however, listen first. In the back of this bag, there are two slits to secure the folded yoga mat. The inside of the bag is the special part. There are 3 separate compartments, in addition to a separate bag for dirty workout wear. This bag can be used for exercise, traveling, or during the day. The bag is sold out at LULULEMON stores because it's such a hot item, but I found it sold on Ebay. And with research, I am sure you can come across the bag.




As much as I love LULULEMON, the prices are extremely high and I cannot necessarily afford $80 pants or $50 tops. So I have come across a great site that provides both workout and casual wear clothing. The name of the company is Wear Me Out Clothing and I cannot get enough of their clothes. The prices range from $20-$50. Definitely within a budget. 
I have both the tank and pants below, and love them. Wear Me Out uses a supplex material that is super soft and manages moisture perfectly. I take Core Power yoga, which is set in a super warm climate, so the supplex fabric is perfect.

Contrast Rolldown Capri: $48.99                              Racerback Tank: $38.99


I also love Wear Me Out Clothing's casual wear because they are great to put on after sweating hardcore in yoga. I also wear them walking down the street. And for the price, I have one in every color.

 Mineral Wash Rolldown: $42.99
 



This is not the first time I will mention this company, especially because they constantly add new things to their website.

If you mention this blog to Wear Me Out Clothing, look forward to a 10% discount off your order.

After a hard and sweaty workout, besides drinking loads of water, a new canned drink has entered hipster-ville: Coconut Water. C2O is personally my favorite brand. Inside the can, natural occurring electrolytes help impact sodium heavy diets. Coconut water will hydrate, and hold the body's electrolyte balance in place. It contains no gluten, no fat, no additives, no sweetneres, and no preservatives. It's super delicious and refreshing. Bring a can and join the trend of coconut water.

Celebrities are up on the trend too.

Yoga Mat.

Choosing your yoga mat is extremely important, because you are placing most of your body weight on it, and will spend the entire class on the mat. Spending a little more money for a better mat is highly recommended. However, Target sells Yoga Mats for $20. The mat is fairly thin, but will do the trick until ready for a different mat.

I received my yoga mat from Gaiam and absolutely love it. The prices of mats range from $15-$25. The online site is constantly having sales, which allows the price of their items to decrease immensely. The image below is the exact replica I have and love.

Exercise Song for the Day:



"I Like That' by Static Revenger & Richard Vission ft. Luciana is super great for working out. Her sexual and fun lyrics allows the workout to drift away, while the focus goes to the song.
