I wouldn't describe myself as a workout fiend (you'll never see me signing up for boot camp class earlier than 10 a.m.), but as a lover of all things clothes and shopping, a new set of leggings or a cute sports bra never fails to motivate me in to a morning workout.
As much as I love the feeling of putting on a new set of workout gear, I cringe at the thought of dropping tons of money on clothes I plan on sweating buckets in. Unlike the model who frequents the treadmill next to me, after a good workout, my clothes (and hair, and socks) are typically soaked and dying to jump in the laundry the second I get home. If I'm planning on sweating that much and washing those clothes frequently, they have to be sweat-wicking, easy to move in, supportive of my curves, and generally inexpensive.
Target is already a go-to for budget buyers like myself, but now that all activewear is 20 percent off till the end of this month, all the leggings, tops, bras, and sweatshirts I've been staring at longingly in my cart are already on their way to my yoga mat.
