These gifts are for any fitness or workout lover! Or, they are perfect athleisure gear for those of you who live in workout gear just like us, even to run errands!
This water bottle keeps your drinks super cold and hot, and how fun is the pattern?!
We love this top! The color is super fun, and it also comes in a bunch of other great colors like grey and magenta. It is great for running because it allows you to sweat, and is really lightweight! This one would make a great holiday gift.These speed shorts are great for running and are super breathable! They are super lightweight and we love that the navy color goes with everything! These are under $60, and we have had a similar pair for several years and still love them.We are both definitely people that like to workout in shorts, no matter the weather, haha. We love pairing them with long-sleeves, so it is the perfect amount of breathability when we start sweating!For our workouts, we typically like to start off by doing some sort of cardio either running outside or doing cardio on a machine in the gym using the stair master or elliptical. Following that, we will do some sort of weight training for a specific muscle group. { Cardio Squad Tank II c/o | Run Around Tight c/o | Free To be Zen Bra c/o }
This tank is great for running and workouts because it is really light, and has deeper armholes, great for letting the air cool you down! It also has their sweat-wicking, four-way stretch Seriously Light™ Luon fabric, which makes it really breathable! These mesh crops are also really light and breathable! Usually mesh leggings can be really constricting and not ventilated, but these are great. They’re also really stretchy and fit like second-skin! We love that they come in grey, too!When the weather is this nice and cool out, we love taking our workouts outdoors! Lululemon has the best pieces for working out in cooler temps. You can layer all of the pieces we are wearing by throwing on a cute jacket like this one! We love that all of their pieces are super lightweight and breathable.

This is probably one of my favorite looks EVER! Not only is it super comfy, but it can be worn for basically anything! I love an all black look, especially when it is super edgy and has mesh involved. Am I right?! This olive suede bag is the best! It is a good neutral, but it is way more fun than the classic cognac! These mesh leggings have the perfect amount of stretch, and I love that the mesh is the knee and middl of the leg area, so it really stands out! These come in a really pretty grey color as well! This grey burnout v neck is a great one, but unfortunately, it sold out. I found this one that is similar and has great reviews! I promise you, you will wear a grey v neck with EVERYTHING! This moto jacket is another one that also sold out, but, I found this amazing one that is under $100 that looks great with everything! You can wear a leather jacket all year long. I wear it on top of dresses, with jeans, with leggings, really anything! I have talked about these slip ons more than I would like to, BUT, they are seriously so amazing. I am not joking, I probably wear them 3 or 4 times a week. They are comfy, they look good with everything, and are just so simple and classic.
Y’all already know we have an obsession with workout clothes, especially when they have mesh on them #YES! We love the print and detailing on this sports bra! You can get 15% off with code ADB15. This bra and this bra are similar options to the one I am wearing and ship free!We paired the bra with some liquid leggings, which are a great athleisure piece to have! They look great with these tennis shoes I am wearing, but can also be worn with boots or booties and a denim shirt or blouse!
LOVE the back of this bra!
And, now for the other look!
How fun are these leggings?! When I posted the on my instagram a while back, a ton of you all loved them! I love them because they are thinner, so you don’t feel like you’re wearing these super heavy, thick leggings. I also found this pair and this pair that are very similar to the ones I am wearing! These tennis shoes are probably my most worn pair because they go with EVERYTHING! And, they are super comfy!
Happy Monday! Hope you all had a great and relaxing weekend. If you all didn’t catch our snapchats, Samantha and I were actually apart this weekend (so shocking, I know!). We are typically always together, or at least, in the same city, but this weekend, she was away at a friend’s lake house, and I was in Dallas!
She wasn’t very good about writing out her workouts this week, so I am just sharing mine this week. We typically do similar workouts, if you all haven’t noticed already, so you all probably won’t notice! Anyways, as always, we will be sharing all of our workouts and eats from the past week. Again, I ate out a TON, haha, but I made sure to take pictures of everything I ate out for the most part. PS- we usually snapchat a ton of our meals [sbelbel] and [alexis.belbel]
Here’s what our workout schedule looked like this past week:
MONDAY: flywheel [sign up for a free class here!] we LOVE it!
TUESDAY: arms + cardio
WEDNESDAY: legs + cardio
THURSDAY: chest + triceps + cardio
FRIDAY: shoulders + cardio
SATURDAY: legs + cardio
SUNDAY: back + cardio
PS- you can save each of these workout images to your phone for easy access at the gym!
On Saturday and Sunday, I worked out with my boyfriend, and while we didn’t workout “together” it was fun! Before we share our meals, just wanted to share our favorite clothing pieces this week (just click to shop them directly!)
And, now for the meals from this past week. These are totally out of order, so I apologize!
Last Sunday, my boyfriend and I went on a 9.4 mile walk/run and were STARVING afterwards, so we went to Genghis Grill and made our own stir-frys. I love this spot because you can pick out exactly what you want! I always get a ton of seafood, chicken, veggies, and then do no sauce. I just use the sriricha after it is cooked. I also get cabbage and an egg mixed in with it! Since I stay away from butter and soy sauce, I just asked them to cook it with water!Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went to 18th and Vine in Dallas. We were starving and it was SO good. We didn’t even get any sides, but we did get brisket, burnt ends, and this jalapeño sausage. It was amazing! When I got home, I ate a ton of veggies and then I was ready to explode, haha.
Yesterday morning, I made my boyfriend and I some chocolate chip pancakes. I have to eat them every day;)
On Saturday, my boyfriend and I went to Buzzbrews for breakfast. I got the ‘Californiacation’, which is an egg white omelet with veggies and a side of fruit! I also had a ton of coffee. They have a coffee bar so it’s self-serve!After our workout on Saturday, we grabbed salads at Snappy Salads. I love this place because they give you so much, unlike the other places I have been to! I made my own with a ton of veggies, grilled chicken, and balsamic vinegar!We went and hung out with some of our friends by the pool so we snaked on some hummus and veggies and then grilled some burgers.
By the time I got home, I cleaned the house, and worked a little and then was ready for dinner. Since I had been eating out all day, I was ready for a home-cooked meal, haha. I cooked some chicken thighs in a pan with black pepper and then roasted some brussels sprouts, eggplant and bell peppers with olive oil and then sautéed mushrooms and onions with olive oil in a pan. It was all so good!
On Friday, we met up with a friend for dinner at Mudhen’s Meats and Greens at the Dallas Farmer’s Market. I can’t stay away from okra and roasted chicken!
On Friday, we met up with a friend for lunch at Villa-O. I got the chicken paillard, grilled. It comes with arugula and a zucchini noodle salad. SO good!On Thursday, we picked up a meal from Snap Kitchen. I got the ‘Naked Chicken’ which was so good! Highly recommend it!
For dinner on Wednesday, I sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, and onions in a pan and then had grilled chicken and roasted brussels sprouts, and eggplant.
On Tuesday, we had date night and went to Tillman’s Roadhouse. I got the roasted chicken (typical) and we shared the mushrooms, which were really yummy!
On Monday, we went to Flywheel, and afterwards, the last thing I wanted to do was cook, so we went to our favorite spot, Eatzis!
Happy Memorial Day! Hope you all had a great weekend! We had the best holiday weekend at home in El Paso. Our dad is a veteran, so it is a special day for us to spend with him. We never want to leave, but it is back to Dallas for us, but only for a few days before we head out of town again!
First off, I have to share my favorite workout clothes this week!
We were kind of rushed pretty much every day this week for our workouts, so some days, one of us didn’t even lift weights. We did do cardio pretty much every day, but I definitely had to slow down after my foot injury;)
Here’s what our workout schedule looked like:
MONDAY: Flywheel at night
TUESDAY: cardio + arms
WEDNESDAY: cardio + legs
THURSDAY : cardio + chest + calves
FRIDAY: cardio
SATURDAY: cardio + shoulders
SUNDAY: cardio + legs
PS- we have been doing Flywheel and have been loving it. If you haven’t tried it before, you can get your first class free here!
Chest (Sam): Arms (Alexis): Arms (Sam):Legs: Shoulders: Legs (Sam):Here a ton of our meals from this past week! We ate out a lot and then cooked a ton at home at our parents’ house, so prepare for a ton of food!
This was our meal last night for our Memorial Day BBQ. We made our zucchini salad. Recipe on our blog in one of our previous workout posts! We also made burgers, roasted brussels and asparagus, sautéed onions and mushrooms! All INCREDIBLE! Pretty much every day we were home, Sam and I made a salad with all of the veggies in the fridge and some protein like chicken or steak. Eating salads by the pool just makes them taste 10x better! I am usually the last person that likes ANY of the food in El Paso. Well, if you love unhealthy Mexican food, El Paso is the place for you, haha, but in all seriousness, we usually just eat at home when we are in town. We tried this place my parents love that specializes in fajitas and roasted chicken. We had it after we went to White Sands on Friday (more about that here) and were OBSESSED. Also, probably because we were HANGRY!
Anyways, we had it again on Saturday night and brought it home. SO freaking good. Give me roasted chicken, and I am one happy girl! On the way to White Sands, we stopped at Subway, and grabbed a chopped salad with the rotisserie chicken. It was actually really good. It didn’t really fill me up (typical), so I ate quest bar after this! On Thursday, we went to get the Brazilian Blowout done to control the major frizz in our hair. Of course, we had to pack something to eat. We brought roasted chicken (recipe at bottom of this post) from the night before with a kale salad.After our hair appointment, I was hungry again so we stopped by this mediterranean spot that was actually really good! I got chicken kabobs with a side salad. The chicken was super flavorful and really yum!
On Wednesday, when we got into town, my mom was super sweet and made oven roasted chicken so it was ready when we got in. She knows her very hungry children well!;) I made some roasted veggies to go with it with avocado oil. For our flight to El Paso, we picked up salads with grilled chicken from Snappy Salads in Dallas. It is one of our fave spots to grab a salad! We usually use red wine vinegar dressing.
On Tuesday, I went on a date with my boyfriend to Savor in Klyde Warren Park. This is one of my favorite chickens. SO good and I got mine with broccolini!This is one of my typical afternoon meals from earlier in the week:
On Monday, we were STARVING after cycling, so we went to Fadi’s by our house and got a ton of yummy food + roasted chicken!
I snapped these magazine articles yesterday, and a TON of you screenshotted them, so I will definitely try to keep sharing more stuff like this! This is really how we eat and what I believe works well for me, so I hope it is helpful!
My boyfriend made fun of me and told me he didn’t need to buy this magazine because I basically gave it to you all to read, haha. It made me laugh and was kind of true! I just thought these would be great tips!
One of my favorite kinds of salads! I need to try this recipe! I do these exercises all of the time! Great to add in:
I actually agree with this except I do eat late at night. To me, it doesn’t matter what time of day you’re eating, just what you’re eating and how much you’re eating as a whole all day long!
