You've got the heart, the discipline, and the drive to lace up and push yourself hard. All you need now is great gear to help you step up your game and get more out of your workout. Plus, cute exercise clothes and shoes = major motivation. 

1. Look your Best 
Tempted to grab what's on the floor (That ratty t-shirt! PJs!) and head to the gym? Resist. Invest in some sexy, stylish clothes that make you feel awesome and provide support as you move, stretch, flex, and sweat it out. You never know who you'll run into on the trail or at the next treadmill. 

2. Give your Feet Some Love
Surge into your run with some serious kicks. Choose footwear like the Under Armour® SpeedForm running shoe, brand new and available at Dicks Sporting Goods. Ultra-lightweight material delivers great flexibility, while Micro G® cushioning enhances rebound strength for plenty of forward momentum. They look pretty cool, too. Happy feet guarantee a better run.

3.  A Good Sports Bra Is Magic
A quality sports bra is a very smart investment. It doesn't have to be pricey, but a bra that supports your girls and holds them in place will do wonders for your workout. A supportive, comfy bra means less stress, pain, and aches in your chest and back. Plus run and jump your heart out without fearing dreaded jiggle. 

4. Focus on Fit
There is a difference between form-fitting and "eek! I can't breathe!" Choose clothes that fit closely to your body so that you can move freely—excess fabric will get in the way. That doesn't mean that you should squeeze yourself into something too tight. The ideal is a just-right fit that will move with your body and keep you comfortable—allowing you to focus on your exercise, not on your gear.
