2018 Active Wishlist

by - January 23, 2018

SO happy new year!!!
(at what point does it become unacceptable to say this?.... i mean its practically the end of January but)

the first post of 2018. it is still so crazy to me that its 2018, i honestly cant deal with how fast last year went.

this year i am making a pledge to try and be more active and health conscious. i have joined a new gym literally a minute from my house so there are NO excuses not to go. the plan is to go at least 5 times a week, i don't really want to achieve anything particular and restrict myself to only training certain things. i am just going with the mindset to try feel more body confident and happy in my skin.

so with that being said, its only necessary to want some new gym gear and accessories.
(i don't know about you but i am always 100% more motivated when i have something new to wear/use)

Nike Epic Lux Running Tights $110
Black/Anthracite/Gunsmoke
i find shopping for tights SO hard especially because everything full length is always too long for me then everything 7/8 is always full length so i cant really win. but i have found that Nike do the best tights and i can generally work with their sizing. i LOVE these tights, i already have them in 3 different colours/lengths (capri & 7/8) but they fit perfectly and are super comfy. i am all here for the design of these because they aren't plain but also don't have a crazy print on them. definitely will be the first item i purchase from this list. 


Nike Pro HyperCool Training Tight $90
Gunsmoke/Heather/Volt Glow
i am also looking to branch out from the Epic Lux tight this year and try a different style of Nike tight. i like the design of the Nike Pro and it would be interesting to see if their 'hypercool' technology makes any difference during training. i like the colour of these and funnily enough i don't actually own a pair of grey tights. these are definitely something i will be looking to invest in, hopefully they aren't too long *que eyeroll*  

Nike Lunar Charge Essential Shoes $160
White/Grey/Black
i. love. these.
literally from the moment i laid eyes on these i knew i had to have them!! Nike, why do you do this to me.
these are described as "lifestyle shoes with an innovative design to incorporate the support and comfort of a training shoe", so i think they would be perfect for the gym.

Nike Air Rally Crew Sweatshirt $85
Purple/Black
i am all for comfort so of course i had to include some sort of pre/post gym gear. i generally am not a colour type of girl, i normally stick to your standard monochrome colours but i came across this sweatshirt and i really like the colour. i think it could easily be styled with any colour tights aswell as trackpants for post gym comfort.

Nike Drawstring Bag $20
Lilac & Black
gym bags are one thing i don't own, usually i just chuck all my stuff in a shopping bag. but if i am going to go to the gym 5 days a week i probably should invest in one. i don't want anything too big so i think this design works and will be effective enough.

Beats X Wireless In-Ear Headphones $199.95
White
i don't know about you but i HATE trying to work out with a cord dangling in front of me with my phone stuffed into my tights. so its only necessary a pair of wireless headphones made my wishlist. my boyfriend uses these at the gym on a daily basis and highly recommends them.

Nike Indy Soft Training Bra $59
Particle Rose & Pure White
this made it onto my wishlist for two reasons: 1. its blush 2. its blush.
i have 2 indy bras already and like them for lower intensity activities as there are comfortable and are probably one of the more 'stylish' sports bras on the market.


Ivy Park Logo Mesh Insert Bra $44
Grey/Black
i haven't tried any of the Ivy Park range before but i am keen to see what all the fuss is about.

Fitbit AltaHR $249
i have recently been using the Fitbit Flex 2 and love it. i am literally obsessed with trying to meet my daily steps especially working in an office, it has been interesting to know how long i am stationary every hour and how many steps i take in an average day. its such an easy way to check your sleep too. but since its now always on my wrist and has basically replaced the ability to wear a watch, i would love to upgrade to the Fitbit AltaHR which has the heart rate monitor and watch.

Nike Printed Training Gloves $42
lifting weights with rings on generally kills my hands/fingers so this year i want to invest in some training gloves to solve all my issues.

so i probably should have realised that almost every item was going to be Nike.
i hope this post gave you some inspo and motivation to reach your active goals this year with some new gear.
