Being a plus-size fitness professional, I enjoy working out. But I don’t enjoy wearing every workout set. I’ve put every kind of moisture-wicking compressive fabric on my body, yet time and time again, Girlfriend Collective is one of the brands that I turn to for activewear that effectively supports me during my workout. All of the brand’s apparel come in sizes XXS-6XL. I wear a size 42G bra and have thick (size-18 women) thighs, so when I’m looking to build an outfit for a high-impact workout, I need two things — uplifting support and a chafe-free fit. I own some pieces from the brand, like the High-Rise Bike Short, that have survived years of HIIT, cardio, and kickboxing classes.
Since I first started wearing Girlfriend Collective pieces back in 2019, I’ve spent more money than I’d like to admit on the retailer — but I do have a fully stocked workout-clothes wardrobe with an outfit for every type of exercise. It improves my mood when I workout while wearing a cute workout set. Keep scrolling to shop my ideal Girlfriend Collective outfit for a high-impact workout which includes pieces I’ve actually worn to class.
