An Underwire Sports Bra Could End Your Workout Woes

Adidas

I am a busty lady, and what might suck most about it is never finding a supportive sports bra—I’ve always had to wear two to make sure the Boobsey Twins stay in place when I’m on a run or working out. While there are solutions out there for C, D, and larger cupped ladies, I find a lot of these bras are either made for women who also have larger bodies or they’re simply so freakin’ ugly that I just can’t bring myself to wear what looks like some t-shirt flotation device. My latest discovery is this Adidas “Simia” sports bra with underwire (underwire—thank you!). It also has all the makings of a sturdy workout garment—molded cups, wide straps and a hooked back closure. How about that. [$40, ShopAdidas.com]

Jessica Stam Works It Out. In Stilettos.

Jessica Stam in V Magazine

We are forever looking for ways to make working out less painfully boring, but we must begrudgingly admit that V magazine and Jessica Stam beat us to the punch with their new workout spread. Somehow, we neglected to realize that evening gowns, stilettos, neon wrist bands and sky high ponytails were the way to jazz up our gym routines. And while one might think that leather leggings wouldn’t allow for all that much breathing, Stam looks perfectly content in the photoshoot, so we’re inclined to believe that Rachel Zoe, the shoot’s stylist, found a solution.

The War On Muffin Tops: The “Skinny Jeans Workout”

skinny jeans

Unfastening that OMG-I-can’t-breathe top button is one way to fit into your skinny jeans. But for the truly trendy, Skinny Jeans Workout classes claim to obliterate the “muffin tops” (also known as the normal, healthy “stomach”) that pop over most women’s zippers when we zip up our J.Crew matchstick jeans.

Heidi Pratt Wants You To Lose Weight

Heidi Pratt

Want workout and nutritional advice from Heidi Montag? (How very Elizabeth Hasselbeck of her.) Yeah me neither. But apparently Mrs. Pratt doesn’t care what we want—she’s once again unleashing her Playboy-rific bod on the world in a new workout DVD. The plan is to also offer such unheard of and novel nutritional advice like: Avoid all “white” foods, fill up on lean meats, green veggies, apples, berries, blah blah blah.  (Oh, and for the record, “Heidi loves steak!”—only if it’s grass-fed, though.) I wonder if she’ll recommend her plastic surgeon along with all this talk of 90 minute five day-a-week workouts? [People]

The Power Plate And Other Fast-Dying Fitness Crazes

Vibrating Power Plate And Other Fitness Crazes

No, that’s not a super-charged scale on steroids. It’s the Power Plate, a vibrating platform, that is taking the celebrity fitness world by storm. Heidi Klum, Clint Eastwood, George Clooney, Sean Combs, and Madonna have been reportedly getting sleek physiques by squatting and pressing atop this vibrating plate. Experts say the Power Plate stimulates the neurological system, improves flexibility, and reduces muscle soreness. Now I’m all for a more effective, less strenuous workout, but I’m rather skeptical about any fitness technique celebs obsess over because usually it’s a bunch of crap or just a product endorsement. Plus, at a price range of about $2,000 to $10,500, I’d rather take my vibrations lying down. Click through for the other fitness crazes that Hollywood embraced only to abandon rather quickly.
