Women's Two Piece Hoodie Track Suit Set From Amazon

Good morning, y'all!  It's about 4:45 am as I sit down to right my next clothing find.  This one is from Amazon and is the Blue Women's Two Piece Hoodie Track Suit Set from Amazon.  The blue is such a brilliant bright blue and I am so surprised of how well it fit!  The jacket has a hoodie and zips up in the front.  It's made to fit like a bodycon piece of clothing, but the pants....Oh my goodness, these pants fit like a dream.  I was a little skeptical when I received this set, as the pants looked kind of small, but I knew they had some stretch, just by the feel of them.

These pants have so much stretch to them, but at the same time, are really really comfortable. And, even though the jacket is a bodycon jacket, the pants do not fit that way...unless you buy a smaller size.  I LOVE how these pants fit and if you didn't know they were part of a track suit, you would think they were regular pair of pants.  These pants, I plan on wearing to work and out, while shopping.  They are not too short in the legs and being that I'm only 5'2", the length is perfect, as they go all the way down to my feet!  These will definitely be my favorite piece to wear around the house!

This tracksuit comes in various colors: Black, Blue, Fluorescent Green, Orange, Red & Yellow and range from sizes Small - 3XL.  You can find this bodycon tracksuit at: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08GCMJNM9  Like I've mentioned above, if you want this to fit more snug and more like a bodycon outfit, go for a size smaller.  I personally like my track suits, fitness suits, or what have ya on a more comfy and looser side.  The photos of me in this suit, versus the model photos on Amazon, are totally different. Keep that in mind when you are choosing YOUR size that best fits you.

Sports Wear by HBS Group of Industries

Whether I'm working out (which is very minimal, lately) or just lounging around the house, I always want to feel comfortable in what I'm wearing...ALWAYS! Leggings, yoga pants or lounge pants are my go-to pants, as they are stretchy, soft and comfortable.  As a matter of fact, I work full time and leggings (jeggings) are what I wear all that week (during the fall and winter times, anyway.)

Now...if you are the ones who love to work out, get your fitness on or whatever, then you MUST check out these pieces by HBSGOI (HBS Group of Industries.) Pictured below, you will find a sports bra(s), leggings, tank tops and balaclawa.

First of all...the full length leggings are the bomb!  I wore these the very next day, to work.  They are a little stretchy, yet firm enough to hold everything in its place.  The waist band is what I really love.  They have a wide waist band, allowing these pants to feel even more comfortable and not cut into my stomach, like the thinner waistbands. I hate my inner thighs, so these leggings were perfect, in camouflaging them! I know these are probably meant to be workout pants...but hey, they worked as work pants!

In addition to the full leggings, I also received (and loved) the capri leggings. These were basically made the same way like the full leggings, but stopped at he calves, hence, capri leggings.  Some days you want a full legging and then there are days you want something different!

The tank tops I received, are of very nice quality and made very well.  You can tell they are more for working out, but again, they can be worn every day (as long as the weather permits!)  They are form fitting, not loose and hug the body, ensuring that you won't have to worry about anything 'falling out', during your workout (unless, of course, you ordered a size too big!)  They are a little stretchy, but not too stretchy and hold their form well.  I love the brown and gray colors I received, as these are normally the colors I would go with.

Next, we have your sports bra.  Let me tell you...these are some very firm fitting sports bras and you DEFINITELY won't have to worry about anything 'getting loose' when wearing them.  I normally wear a large in tops and sports bra, so when I tried on the large sports bra (bright neon pink), I thought at first, I was trying on a medium.  It fit that snug!  I know I put on some pounds...okay, more than SOME, so receiving all this workout, sports wear, kinda got me thinking..Girl... it's time for your butt to get into gear and lose those pounds!

These sports bras, however, are very well made, they are thick and have a comfortable band, that stretches.  They are not your skimpy sports bra and they cover quite a bit.

Last, we have the balaclawa....okay, at first, when I saw this word, I had no idea what that was...but then, when I opened the package and saw this pair of balaclawa, I knew it went over your head, covered majority of your face and was something I have seen bikers wear.

The balaclawa were actually pretty comfy.  They are a thinner, stretchy type material that easily goes over the head and face, with the bottom covering your neck (at least mine, anyways.)  They are designed to keep your face warm, while outside in colder weather.  All that seems to be exposed are your eyes.  I found that I could move the piece up or down, cover more of my nose if I wanted to, and still have the balaclawa fit very well.

HBSGOI not only has these items, but other items as well.  Their products range from motor bike garments to horse riding and gym clothing.  You can check out all of these items, by visiting http://www.hbsgoi.com/

Epica Large Digit Timer Review

It seems when I'm cooking and I need to time things, I'm always looking for my watch or running into the living room to see what time it is.  And although I look at my watch or a clock, sometimes, after several minutes, I may have forgotten what time it was when I looked at the clock.

That is why I was happy to have received the Epica Large Digit Timer.  No longer will I have to keep up with when I looked to see what time it was when I began a dish.  Yes, my stove has a timer, but sometimes when baking, I have to switch back to the timer, as my oven keeps up with the temp.  This Epica Large Digit Timer will save me a LOT of hassle in the kitchen.  It will make everything more simple and save time.

I love the fact that this timer has large digits.  Very easy to see, very easy to keep up with and it beeps when you start up the time and when time is up.  It's hard not to notice this little gem in the kitchen.  It also has a magnetic clip on the back, easy for just attaching it to your frig.  Not only is this Epica Large Digit Timer great in the kitchen, but you can also use it while working out.  You can keep track of how many seconds or minutes you do a certain exercise.  If you are limited on time and don't want to have to look at your watch, cell phone or other device, this timer will take care of all of that.  Just set the minutes and seconds and begin!


Here is a little info about the Epica Large Digit Timer from the company:

Easy to see, hear and operate, the Epica Large Digit Timer makes keeping track of your time-sensitive tasks a cinch. Plus, it can be positioned just about anywhere you want, from a countertop to a refrigerator door to a wall hook to your belt.
Simple Count Down Operation
To set the timer, just press the M and S (minutes and seconds) buttons until the display reaches the time you wish to elapse before the alarm sounds. To start the countdown, press the Start/Stop button; to stop or pause it, press Start/Stop again. Remaining time will be displayed until you clear the settings (by pressing the M and S buttons simultaneously). The Epica's maximum reading is 99 minutes, 59 seconds.
Easy to See and Hear
The Epica lets you know when time is up even if you're not close at hand. Its 1.5" x 2.5" display with extra-large numbers can be read up to 50 feet away. The alarm is loud enough to be heard in the next room; and it continues to beep for a full minute, unless you manually shut it off sooner.
Automatically Returns to Last Setting 
When you need to perform the same timed task over and over, such as boiling eggs, the Epica simplifies your life by automatically resetting itself to the last time entered. All you have to do is press Start/Stop again when the next batch of eggs goes in the water.
Built-in Table Stand, Magnet, Spring Clip and Hanging Hook
You can position the Epica just about anywhere and read it from nearly every angle, thanks to its ingenious 4-way mounting design. The fold-out stand is great for horizontal surfaces such as a kitchen counter or shelf.
Reliable Quality
The Epica Large Digit Timer is accurate to 60 sec./month and comes with a 1 year warranty

11 Piece Resistance Bands Review

There are just some times I just don't feel like setting up my Bow Flex machine (letting it down and then putting it back up).  Sometimes I TRY to get a workout in by halfway doing HIIT, the best that I can, but then there are times where I just want a good toning workout...without the big bulky machines, without a tons of equipment.

The 11 Piece Resistance Bands are the perfect accessory or equipment that anyone can have.  There are different colored bands that range in different ranges of resistance or difficulty (easy to hard) and the set also comes with a set of handles, a set of ankle Velcro bands and another attachment that looks to be for triceps.

All of the above comes in it's own storage bag that has a Velcro closure.  The bands come in black, yellow, red, blue and green and each color represents the level of resistance.  Each band also has a metal clip that attaches to the other attachments (handles, ankles bands and tricep band).  

The resistance bands targets all parts of the body - chest, back, shoulders, arms and legs.  Some of the exercises you can do with these bands include: Chest Press, Seated Row, Rear Delt Fly, Lat Pulls, Tricep Extensions, Bicep Curls, Squats, Criss-Cross Outer Thigh and the Butt Blaster.

I've personally have used these bands, mainly for my arms and chest.  I can tell you, these bands, depending on the color and the resistance, can be tough!  I found that I had to go from a red (med-hard) to a blue when doing bicep curls.  I honestly believe you can get a very good toning workout from these bands and I have the sore biceps to prove it!

The 11 Piece Resistance Bands comes with a simple pamphlet, showing you the different exercises as well as instructions on how to perform each one.  It is recommended to start with a 5-10 minute warmup followed by a cool down stretch before and after your workout.  As with any exercise regimen, it's always best to consult with your doctor before attempting any workout.

I love the fact, that these bands and attachments have their own storage bag.  It makes it so much easier to keep up with all the bands and not have to see them thrown back in a corner somewhere.
