Motivate Yourself to Work Out With This Gear

The Workout Gear Inspiring Me to Reach My Fitness Goals

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

The new year is a great time to set new goals — especially when it comes to your fitness routine. However, even with good intentions, many of us have felt our motivation slipping after just a few weeks. My new approach to help me achieve my goals is to take it one day at a time and make sure that I'm showing up for myself. That way, I can show up better for others. I'm being less rigid with my workout schedule and substituting hour-long workouts for outdoor walks when I'm short on time. I've also treated myself to a mini-fitness-gear refresh.

Updating my fitness wardrobe helps me feel more confident and intentional about my commitment to a healthier lifestyle. Ahead, check out my most recent additions that will help me stay on track with my goals this year.
