New Year, New You! It’s the tired time old mantra we all love to hate, but just can’t help but give into. January is, and always has been, the month most of us choose to devote to self-help and self-love. It’s the time we strive to get our lives in order.
Going for that promotion and climbing the career ladder are at the forefront of our minds, stepping up our fitness regime is a goal we begin with gusto and really getting out of our comfort zones, but all the while finding that elusive ‘balance’ is the key.
However, for most the futile promises soon begin to wane and we fall back into old habits. So this year don’t let the New You be a New Year fad. Shop our top picks of the best active wear out there to ensure you keep motivated and look so good you’ll want to keep working out well into 2018.
