The new collection from adidas x Universal Standard claimed to have pieces that felt like a second skin and moved with you and I was definitely looking forward to putting that to the test.…

Since I joined Equinox, I started to want more out of things. My fitness club gave me everything I wanted (and things I didn’t even know I needed, like Kiehls products and a spa), so why shouldn’t other aspects of my life. I wanted to eat better and have the food that goes in my body give me more nutrients than it did before. I wanted quality investment pieces in my wardrobe so I get more wear out of my…
One of my favorite comments I get on Instagram is #bodygoals. I truly appreciate any engagement on social media but to me this is so great because I can easily throw together an outfit and do my makeup, but my body is a work-in-progress and takes the most time and effort. Even more so now that I’m 30 but let’s not go there (ugh). I wanted to share with you guys my top 3 tips for a better body.…
Countdown with me: 81 days. 81 days 6 hours. 81 days 6 hours 47 minutes (and counting) until SUMMER! Contrary to my typical procrastination ways, I’m getting a head start on my summer body prep this year and there’s no better way to feel motivated to get fit than to do it in style with CHRLDR. As a college student, my second skin is activewear (it just comes with the territory), and I’m not complaining.…

When you run you’re giving your whole body a workout. Normally I run with weighted bands on my ankles but there are ways to add onto your run to give it an extra boost without any equipment at all. Of course,…
I love drinking detox water, especially in the warmer months. It keeps me hydrated while I’m traveling, gives me energy throughout the day, and it’s a healthier alternative to soft drinks and other sugary beverages. Plus, they’re always Instagram-worthy. These are my 3 favorite detox waters, which I’ll usually switch throughout the week, and none of them require much prep. Just drop the ingredients in your water, let it infuse overnight, and take it with you to work the next day! The…
Keep calm ladies, summer is right around the corner! If you’re like me and still lost in your winter hibernation eating patterns, then getting in shape is the furthest thing on your mind. We all have those days where we lack that extra motivation to get up and hit the gym, and that’s when my go-to at home booty workout is the perfect push I need. Investing in a good pair of 3-5 lb. ankle/wrist weights is key to any at-home workout in…
