If you couldn’t tell by now on here and my Instagram, I love working out and a majority of my time when I’m not at work I have workout leggings on.  Over the years I have become very specific about the leggings I will spend my money on and that I can wear out in public and workout at the gym.

While I love Lululemon, it is incredibly hard for me to spend over $100 on one pair of leggings.  So, this will be a round up of some of my favorite workout legging brands that are a little more affordable.  I have squat tested these and they all pass.  So, whether you are working out at the gym or hanging out with friends, you can look good.  Sometimes a new pair of leggings is all the inspiration you need to get in a good workout.

The first brand I want to mention is Buffbunny.  There are so many reasons why I love this brand; one is the owner Heidi Somers aka Buffbunny is awesome and so much of fitness and boss lady goals!  But another reason I love the brand is the quality is so good especially for the price point.  They put out so many different styles and colors that I can’t wait for the next launch.  For sizing, they are very true to size and have great compression, especially in the tummy area.  I always get small bottoms and medium tops and have not had any issues.  Cute, functional, and squat proof.  Follow them on Instagram @buffbunny_collection to find out the next release date.  Right now, on the site, there are still items available from the last launch.  These black laser cut are from the last launch and our my new favorite.

Another brand is Beast Mode Apparel.  Hear in Seattle everyone knows who Beast Mode is, so owning a piece of the merchandise is a must do.  Marshawn Lynch is Beast mode, and he used to play for the Seattle Seahawks.  He was and is an amazing running back.  My husband introduced me to the workout line, and I was pleasantly surprised.  I picked my pieces up in Seattle at the beast mode store which is right outside the stadium.  You can get a discount if you shop on game day for the Sounders or the Seahawks.  I love the cute prints I got and all the matching sets!  These are also true to size medium tops and small bottoms.  Not as much compression as the Buffbunny, but still perfect for the gym.

Barbells to Bombshells is another brand that I thought was a great find and on Amazon!  Since everyone shops on Amazon, I had to find some that were actually worth the money.  I went through several brands before I found these.  These leggings really accentuate the glutes and make you feel cute and sexy while working out.  The heart leggings are my favorite; I don’t care for the scrunch butt leggings as much.

What are some of your favorite workout brands I should try?
