10 Plus Size Activewear Essentials To Help You Crush Your At-Home Workout
How do you stay motivated to get your body moving? For me, it’s definitely having a cute selection of plus size activewear essentials!
When the pandemic hit, I was at a loss about what to do with my gym membership. I was so used to my routine!
How do I remain active and safe?
I decided to cancel my gym membership, get some cute new workout clothes for extra motivation, and ordered a cycling bike! Which has been one of the best purchases I’ve ever made.
I get the ultimate workout and I’m pushed in ways I never thought I could be.
When I’m looking for activewear, there are a few aspects that I like to keep in mind. These are comfortability, function, fun prints, support, and of course, stylish!
I love sharing great finds, so I thought that I would share some of my favorite pieces that help me look cute while working out!
What’s in your workout wardrobe? It’s important to have a mix of different tops, sports bras, shorts, and leggings to match the activity you will be doing. And of course, having a comfortable and supportive sneaker, too!
Even if you don’t have a cycling bike at home like me, you can still be cute while taking a nice walk around the block or practicing yoga at home.

Rainbeau Curvesis a plus bra of activewear I love because it’s mostly cotton with added stretch. I have sensitive skin and one of the most important things for me on activewear is how it feels against my skin. I prefer cotton. It usually feels better to me than mos synthetic fabrics. There’s also a sports bra company called She Fit. Their bras are very adjustable. They have a high impact bra and a medium impact bra. QVC Denim and Co. has a French Terry activewear collection. The have petite plus too. I don’t know Addidas has plus sizes. I wouldn’t go outside my apartment with just bra and leggings no matter what size I am. It wouldn’t matter if I were a size 6 or 20. I would feel vulnerable and exposed.
