The Fitness Tag

I was sent this tank from Enlightened State Apparel to review. The quality is top knotch! When I was at the gym I saw my reflection in the mirror and was motivating myself to give it my all! Also I got told that I was encouraging others at the gym by wearing it! 

Question Time 

How fit do you consider yourself to be? Are you happy with the shape you're in?
        I'm the fittest I've ever been so relatively fit and yeah I am pretty content.

Do you play any sports?

        Yeah, because I'm so tall, I love basketball. 

Besides those, do you exercise as well?
        Yeah, you need to. I remember when I was in terrible shape, I'd be on the court for a minute and then I'd be a bench-warmer, the water-girl if I could make it to the tap fast enough. 

Do you have any fitness or health related goals? 
        I'd love to see a little ab definition & become a Personal Trainer. 

Which celebrity's body would you like to have?
        Don't really have one actually, I'd like to have parts of people's body I guess, not the full package though.

What's your favorite and/or least favorite exercise?

         My Favorite is probably High Intensity Interval Training, it's challenging and works up a sweat fast. Swimming, I'm terrible! I was always that lanky kid in the shallow end with a gazillion floaties. I'd do widths whilst everyone else did lengths.

How important is leading an active and healthy lifestyle for you?
        Very important, It's one of the few things that I actually care about. Obesity runs in my family and 3 people had to get stomach surgeries also a close family friend had a stroke. If that wasn't a wake-up call I don't know what is.

How much attention to a healthy diet do you pay? 
        A lot of attention, I mean if something is better for you why not eat it? 

What's your biggest diet secret? 
        Don't drink your calories! Forget about the sugar filled crap! Eg. concentrated juices,alcohol and anything that bubbles. It's more harm than good.

Do you smoke, or have you ever smoked in the past? 
        Nope!

My Workout Wardrobe: Yoga

This is a new series on what I typically wear when I'm working out. Honestly having cute and comfy workout clothes motivates you to exercise more!                                            

The clothing I'm wearing is from Ilu Fitwear, I was asked to review some of their sportswear clothing. They are a UK-based company that hope to blur the lines between female fashion and fitness. They have got a range clothing from gym wear to night outs. 

The Sporty Racer Back was my favourite. It's made of a sweat-wicking material, it's chlorine resistant and protects against UV rays! It also has a built in light support sports bra. It makes me look super athletic and is comfortable to work out in. It's currently on sale for £17.99! 

    

The Sporty Compression Capri leggings had the same material as the racer back. The blue contouring also has a slimming effect. It would be even better if they had a zip pocket to insert a phone, key or cash! It's also on sale for £17.99! 

I really like these items because I did J-Fitness in them, jogged and even did Insanity and I managed not to feel sweaty. Their clothing isn't cheap, but it's fantastic quality which is why I'm giving you guys 20% off your first order using the discount code JFIT14 at checkout.
