With only five or so weeks to go, I thought it was time to round-up my favorite pregnancy workout gear. If you’ve been following along you know I’ve been maintaining a regular workout routine and at nearly 35 weeks I’m still working out 5-6 times a week! Yes, I’m crazy. Please note, I was cleared by my OB to continue working out. Over the course of my pregnancy I was lucky enough to wear a number of pieces I already owned, but also invested in a few items.<\/p>\n

Tops<\/b>:
\nThe Gapfit Breathe tank (similar<\/a>)<\/i> was by far my favorite top. I purchased it on a whim around 18 weeks during the GAP friends and family sale and absolutely loved it. I loved it so much that during the next sale I purchased another. It’s perfect for everything from spin to crossfit. It also layers nicely under my colder weather gear.<\/p>\n

I’m a big fan of The North Face and one of the best non-maternity tanks I’ve loved the entire time is my TNF Flow Tank<\/a>. It is perfect for spin or yoga. For budget friendly options check out similar versions from Old Navy<\/a> and Target<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m not a big fan of tees or long sleeve tops, but I did purchase a long sleeve top from TJ Maxx (similar<\/a>) <\/i>for layering during early morning workouts or afternoon dog walks.<\/p>\n

Regarding jackets: I actaully didn’t purchase any. Due to the fact, I’ve stayed relatively small I haven’t found it necessary to buy anything. Currently, I rotate between this TNF fleece<\/a> and jacket<\/a>. If you are in need of a light-weight maternity workout jacket I would recommend the GapFit training jacket<\/a>. (One I love the gap and two there’s always a discount.)<\/i><\/p>\n

Bottoms<\/b>:
\nThe key is finding pants with a wide waistband. As crazy as it sounds I only have one pair of maternity workout pants (GapFit fast leggings<\/a>) and didn’t purchase them until I was 30 weeks along. Although, I like them and they work I definitely prefer to wear them lounging around the house vs. working out.<\/p>\n

My favorites have been these<\/a> and these<\/a> capris and these<\/a> shorts from The North Face. I also picked up a few non-maternity running tights with wide waistbands from Marshalls and TJ Maxx which have worked out nicely. Although I didn’t purchase them I’ve heard nothing, but great things about these leggings<\/a> — if you’re willing to splurge.<\/p>\n
