I'm the first to admit that I go through waves of being in and out of shape. Most of the time, the busier I get the more out of shape I get. But, hey - i'm human.

I've always been a runner, so my weight never really fluctuates, meaning appearance has never been a huge driver of working out. However, the older I get the more i've realized that working out is about so much more than looking good. It's about strength, energy and confidence! Whenever i'm on a workout up swing i'm my productive, more happy and inevitably less stressed.

Having just moved from an apartment with a nice gym, J and I struggled a bit with adapting to a "gymless" lifestyle. Sure, in winter we'll probably get a membership. But, we've really tried to take advantage of running outside as a family for the last few months. (Yep, that means Ty too.) I've also gotten into Solid Core, BBG, and Tone It Up as of late, which focus on toning and improving your muscles.

Half the fun of working out is getting new workout clothes. And, frankly, I wear athleisure almost every day that I spend at home. Seriously! If I worked from home, I can guess that my closet would be full of athleisure ONLY. Fabletics has such cute athletic clothes at really affordable prices. I've been eyeing their pieces for a while now, and was so excited to try out these four new looks for August and September. All of them are super high waisted, which I LOVE. And, come in tons of additional prints.
