THE POWER RING

I do pilates everyday and I now incorporate Bala weights into my routines for that little extra strength. I just got my hands on the power ring and I can’t get enough of it! 10 pounds, easy to grip, and allows me to move freely and get creative in my moves thanks to it’s versatility. Oh, and it’s pretty chic right? Great for pressing, squatting, and swinging. I’m eyeing it in pink. Who knew weights could be so cute?

Here’s to a more sustainable way of transportation. The FP Movement Adventure Shop is here and 1% of proceeds will be donated to Girls Inc, a non-profit organization encouraging young women to be strong, smart, and bold. I have been working with Free People for the longest time, and it’s one of those brands that empowers women to be the best version of themselves. I remember shooting our October 2010 catalog cover! Wow time really flies. Hop on your bike in fall’s hottest colors and just enjoy the moment. It’s all we’ve got. 

70’S INSPIRED ATHLEISURE | NO KA’ OI

I think I have the most fun when it comes to athleisure. NO KA’ OI mixes the spirit of Hawaii with incredible Italian-made design and quality. Here I am taking my nightly stretch in the most sick workout look I own. I’m in love with the 70’s inspired colors and stripes complete a futuristic, elegant touch. Check out that puffed sleeve and sleek silver shine. I don’t think you get more editorially high fashion when it comes to going to the gym. So brilliant. I might be home stretching out those sore muscles and doing yoga in my living room, but honestly, I can’t wait to take this top and style it up for fashion week. Who else thinks it’s a good idea?! I love when athleisure/workout gear can easily transform into something I can take to the street. NO KA’OI, you surprise me every single season.

GET STRONG | EQUINOX

As the storms make their way through New York City, I find myself hitting the gym a lot more. I just want to sweat and move. Equinox is my go-to. I have the all-access pass so that I can travel the world and still feel like I’m working out right at home. It has become a nightly routine for me. I’ll take either a barre or conditioning class mixed with a little freestyle on the cardio machines. I’ll also have those super early mornings with my new personal trainer. It’s so worth setting that early alarm clock for an early wake-up sweat session. What I love about personal training is that I get in a perfect hour session that completely fits my needs and my focus. If there’s a part of my body I feel I need to get stronger (right now it’s my back) we can dedicate a few sessions to just that part of my body. I’m always super busy and my schedule is always changing. It’s nice having someone to plan your week with, introduce you to new moves, and get the job done! Nothing feels better than movement. I can spend all day in my yoga pants. Right now, I have been focusing a lot more intense cardio and core work as opposed to last year, when all I did was toning. I want to create that balance. That feeling of being light on your feet. 30 minutes on a bicycle or elliptical, 10 minutes rowing, 20 minutes weights, and loads of floor work with a medicine ball and that extra 10 minutes of stretching. I just feel overall stronger and healthier. Make some time each day for yourself. What works for me, is switching up your routine, and grabbing a friend. I almost always go to the gym with my boyfriend and sister. Trust me, you’ll feel amazing…and want to whip out those super cute new yoga pants you just splurged on.
