This is the Real Reason I Workout

Okay, I’ve got a serious question for you—why do you work out?

I’ll admit to you that my workout sessions were not always positive or productive, because I was fighting against my body.

I treated each minute on the treadmill or in a dance class as a punishment for being plus size.

My workouts weren’t joyful.

One of the greatest gifts of my journey towards body positivity is that I changed the way I thought about my fitness.

I’m happy to say that I work out because I love my body, not because I hate my body.

Right now my time in the gym is one of the most important things I do for myself and I like my plus size workout clothes to reflect that.

I’m super excited to introduce you to the new BCG Plus line, now available at Academy Sports + Outdoors.
