Sports bra review - Panache Body Shock

 
Sports bra review Panache- body shock- purple/grey
When I brought this bra I had just been measured as a 34gg and as my previous 
experience taught me that the back was always tight so I ordered a 36gg in purple. 
My idea of sizing was majorly off! 
The back is accurate to your size so I really could have 
done with the 34.As for cup size I found it to be generous and should have 
gone for the g instead.
 
 After searching other reviews this was the general feeling that the back size is
 accurate and the bust is a size too generous!Therefore ill be reordering in a 
34g for the fit. 
 
 The bra itself gives me tons of confidence to run fast and causes no pain at all. 
Unlike some sports bras it actually has padding and under wire- which I find makes 
the less bounce and more support; of which it boasts 83% less bounce which I will 
vouch for.   
The back can be clipped to make a racer back style and unlike larger
 sports bras it’s nice to look at and comes in pure, pink, black or grey! The 
racer back is a must as I find this is the bit if the part that gives the total
 support! This by far the best sports bra ever had for comfort, looks and support.
 
 The RRP is around £35.00. However I brought new from a seller in eBay for £22.50 
including postage, the only problem with this is as I need a smaller size ill 
have to buy again instead of an exchange as the seller didn't allow an exchange.  
 
 All in all I'd say this sports bra is a girls best friend! 
Here is another review from one of my fav blogs <3

Quiet and erm more quiet




Where has this year gone ?!?
I apologise as the world of the day job, my own business and fitness took over along with the usual life dramas! 






Anywho I have got into weight lifting so much so that I'm now at a more 'hardcore' gym and have perfected form with slowly increasing my weights!


                                                                                                            I have to admit weight lifting is addictive! And it really enhances your body and although I haven't lost weight my shape has drastically changed! Plus I'm loving my larger butt and thighs!!!! 


Whoever said weight lifting makes you bulky, lied!!!

Instagram fitspo; visual fitness inspiration


Its insane how many people use Instagram for its '#fitness' credentials.
If I'm honest its the reason I loathed Instagram for a long time, what appeared to be the biggest bout of vanity I had seen. Then something happened!
I became one of those '#fitness' girls! 


Truth is it's mega inspiring!!! So many normal people trying to better there bodies through a healthy way. No celebrity endorsements or quick fix- good old fashion 'it took me years but it can be done' attitudes!


From body before and afters there is also the tons of quotes which I admittedly have hundreds on my phone from screenshots! Those days when your feeling down look at them they are massively inspiring!
Heres a few of my favs...

Body inspiration

Body inspiration

I'm curvy and I love it!
I just want to sculpt and enhance whats already there; trying to find fitspo images that reflect this is well.. Hard!!!!

So I thought I'd share my inspiration.
It's all about those curves and muscles!







My ideology about body image is this;


Weight training, the scales and cheesecake! 'Come at me bro'

Weight training, the scales and cheesecake! 'Come at me bro'



I have majorly neglected this page and i apologise! 

So over the last few weeks i lost my fitness steam, drank too much cider and went to Download festival.
Yet whilst i was away something fab happened, i decided not to eat crap! Admittedly it may have something to do with the prices for food at festivals but i came back and have stuck to it!!



My gym seshs have been regular and different for variation. I may have also found a love for lifting. I braved the testosterone filled weight section  and got on the bar weights: each time improving with the weight and squat ratio!!!! Amazing bum you will be mine! 

My legs absolutely kill right now but it's the best type of body ache! Progress!!!! 


I also did the worst thing when being fitness minded- weighed myself. Now lets get this straight i don't weigh myself as since indulging in fitness i seem to have come to a halt yet my body has changed so much so under advice of friends i decided to stop it!
I caved. 
But!!!!! I weigh the least i have done for almost 4years!!!!!!! Amazed doesn't even cut it. Onwards and upwards though, i'm sticking to my plan and not counting calories just watching certain things n working out like a boss!!!! 
Totally loving leg day atmo!!!


Now pass me the cheescake and maybe a cider!!! Cheat day come at me bro!!!
