In honor of International Women\’s Day GracedByGrit launched their #SweatYourStory video campaign, which is all about pushing past the gritty moments, because ultimately, those moments are what give you grace.

\”GracedByGrit is a company that creates workout gear for women that\’s designed with a purpose, made of functional, yet luxurious fabrics and most important, makes you look and feel good. From land to sea, their multi-purpose apparel is graced with endless possibilities.\”

I have never been the \”skinny girl\” if I even think about a cupcake I gain five pounds. So everyday I have to work hard to sweat my story. Currently for me this includes waking up at 5:30am and heading to the gym for a two hour sweat session before I head off to work. I have created a routine that will help me reach that goals that I want to achieve. Favorites include strength training, yoga, pilates and barre class.

I\’ll be hitting the trails with Jack today, how will you #SweatYourStory?


prAna

I have always been a fan of prAna and usually browse their products at my local REI store and I am pretty sure I own the Ashley Capri Legging in every color. I am currently participating in the 30 days of yoga challenge (#TakeTheLeap) and was given the opportunity by SweatPink and prAna to try out a top and pants. Since Michigan weather has been less than stellar I went with cheery peachy outfit. The Tori Capri and Vinyasa Hoodie, both are equally comfortable and amazing for yoga. Plus you would not believe how many comments I receive on how cute my outfit is!

Remember your summer bodies are made in the winter so head on over to prAna\’s website and get some fantastic spring gear. The leggings come in some fabulous colors, not to mention they are beyond comfortable.

prAna offers clothing for people who live life fully, play long and travel well. prAna is focused on sustainability and their products are made from organic fabrics and natural fibers. They even ship in recycled packaging and they come tied in a bow! It doesn\’t get any cuter than that.

I have always browsed Prana’s products in my local REI store and have purchased a few of their dresses. I hadn’t had a chance to test their workout pants and gear until given the opportunity through SweatPink. I was given the chance to try their Gabi Leggings and Gemma Sweater and I am in love with both. I gave them a test during a yoga routine.
