There are so many choices when it comes to active wear these days. I don’t consider myself to be old, but I do remember when there really wasn’t such a thing as active wear for women. Back in the day I used to wear cotton t-shirts and soccer shorts to workout in. Now I actually get to wear clothes that are not only cute, but they have high performance material to they wick away sweat. This motivates me to work out even harder!

I recently checked out some new active wear pieces from Target® C9 . I already own several of their sports bras and absolutely love them (I have them in several colors) so I was excited to check out some new additions to their line. I received a gift card to Target® from POPSUGAR to purchase a couple items from the Target® C9 collection. Here is what I chose:

I really loved the way this tank looked when I saw it in this PopSugar workout video. Truth be told, I was inspired by how fit the host was in this workout video and decided that I needed this Sporty Layered Run Tank in my life:

It’s basically a printed sports bra with a flowy tank top attached to it. Let me just tell you, I love this top. I love the way the tank top is loose and allows some air to get in there (if you know what I’m saying). It’s got a nice moisture wicking fabric and the color I chose is reflective at night – bonus!

The other pieces I received were the women’s run short with knit waistband. I decided to get two pairs of these shorts because I am in need of new shorts in my workout wardrobe. I decided to go with a standard pair of black shorts to match my purple top as well as a fun, printed blue short for when I’m feeling spunky. They have built-in underwear in them too which for me is always a plus.

I did an at-home workout in the purple top and black shorts outfit (I used my new 5 lb dumbbells and did the workout in the video) and it passed all my criteria for workout gear. Overall I found my choices from Target® C9 to be comfortable, good looking, and breathable which are pretty much my time criteria when buying any new workout apparel.

I am so pumped on my new workout gear from Target® C9 and can’t wait to have many fun-filled summer workout sessions in them.
