Gymshark Must Haves
Words Bevery Pokauh
How many gym sets are too many, just asking for a friend.
It's fair to say that your workout is only as good as the set you put on, here is some of this seasons must haves, just before you read on a quick disclaimer, these reviews are not sponsored by or affiliated with Gymshark.
Adapt Animal Seamless Crop ½ Zip in Court Blue
Now when choosing a sports bra i didn't want to go down the conventional route I wanted something abit different that would give me maximum coverage, style and comfort, so i went for the Adapt Animal Seamless Crop ½ Zip - The fit is so flattery and the color is gorg and will compliment all skin types, the sweat wicking finish is impressive (*pulls moisture away from your body, through the fabric so it can evaporate) honestly you could wear it out with a pair of high waisted jeans or some joggers I personally wouldn't confide this beauty to the gym alone it just isn't fair, the material is very stretchy and roomy, i know once you see a roll neck you think conservative tight and restricting my it's actually the total opposite, the zip element gives it a hint of sexy, simply style with a cute necklace, i do suggest keeping it slightly open, the crop ½ does not include any padding but you could add padding or wear a sports bra on the inside if leaving it as it is isn't your style, the overall fit is true to size though i would normally get a small i felt so much more comfortable in a medium.

Adapt Animal Seamless Leggings in Court Blue
The seamless collection from Gymshark is without a doubt one of the best lines of leggings Gymashark sells in my opinion. They are so flattering even on bloated days, once I put them on they were so stretchy, comfortable, complimenting the booty and for all my shorts ladies not too long ! On skin it feels so buttery and sleeky and most importantly lightweight though it looks figure hugging, due to the sweat wick finish it doesn't stick to your skin, there is nothing worse than trying to pull up leggings when sweaty and it's just not budging. The scrunch bum feature is honestly my fav, it gives shape to the butt which is nice because sometimes you can get some leggings that are so fitted and it literally swallows you butt and your butt can sometimes look like it doesn't exist, i would definitely suggest getting the right size, as it is true to size and can come up tight which can be uncomfortable and cause major compression on thighs, the only issue i had is because my body is awkward the medium was a bit too big for my waist area and rolled down when doing vigorous movement so be sure to get different sizes depending on the collection, these are a great pair of leggings if you'd like to add more color to your gym wear collection and the design is so pretty and very subtle and 100% squat proof !

Energy Seamless Hoodie in Biscotti Brown
This is the perfect pullover made for performance, very lightweight and breathable, it has the energy seamless detailing all across the top, on the arms and the back, it's a unique looking color as well biscotti brown, this hoodie gives you the best of both worlds great for lounging in on a Saturday afternoon and working out in on a Monday morning vibes, i got this in a size medium as i didn’t want the fitted look.
Energy Seamless leggings in Biscotti Brown
I’ve actually never worn energy seamless leggings before prior to receiving them so I was very excited. I have to say I fell in love with the eyelet detailing in the leggings which makes them very breathable and who doesn't love showing a bit of skin right ? i got the leggings in a size medium and now i wish i got them in a smaller size only because there are supper long on me i’m 5’4 so the struggle is real, however i’m not sure if sizing down would have helped, the glute contouring with mesh structure wasn't giving what i thought it would be giving but nevertheless it's a very nice fit and unique color, the material is so soft and stretchy and i would 100% lounge in these leggings, for all my cardio lovers this pair of leggings and cardio are a match made in heaven i had an intense HIIT session over the weekend had no trouble moving around, pulling up leggings constantly or embarrassing sweat patches.

Adapt Camo Seamless Racerback Sports Bra in Green
So as mentioned before when I choose sports bras I don't really go for conventional bras, but this racerback bra is a win ! super comfy great coverage for those with a big bust i would 100% recommend especially if you don't want to show too much cleavage and the detailing with the scrunch in front and the back is a gamechanger
Adapt Camo Seamless Leggings in Green
First things first ! once you put these bad boys on they literally make you feel like wonder woman, the sleek feel on the fabric is unreal and they instantly pass the high waist check for anyone wondering, the band around the waist holds in the belly area nice and tight whilst still allowing you to move and 100% squat proof, again if your ever feeling conscious about your bloat these leggings definitely give the confidence to out there on the gym floor and perform regardless of how your feeling, the material is not to heavy which i really like, again we have the scrunch butt feature which adds a nice little touch and accentuate the glutes and the camo design subtle is not too much or in your face just really fun and playful again i nice way of adding color to your wardrobe

Crew Socks 3PK
The Gymshark crew socks provide comfort and great cushioning perfect for all you squatters and dealifters and also great to lounge in. Personally I love wearing my socks over my leggings, I don't know why but it brings that fashiony feel to my gym fits… I know not everyone wants to make a fashion statement with their workout fits but if you do i salute you !
Rumor has it Ben Francis spearheaded this trend
