If my previous posts about bootcamp have made you feel like lacing up your trainers and seeing what all of the fuss is about, here’s a very important post about your signature bootcamp look. Now we all know that bootcamp is not a fashion show but that doesn’t mean you don’t want to look your best. Now before you get your acrylics filled in and your hair did, STOP. I’m talking gym gear and the brands that can withstand the most hardcore of gym regimes. I always find that a shiny new gym top or new pair of neon trainers is just the trick to get me pounding the pavement again. I’d barely secured my place at Revival Bootcamp before I jumped into this shopping Malarkey with both Choos and bundles of Stella McCartney and Sweaty Betty magically appeared in my online shopping cart. Yes, you might have spent a million pounds securing a space on a luxury bootcamp and you might not want to splash the cash on a new luxury gym wardrobe but trust me, you’re worth it. So, I thought I’d share with you a few of the brands that are Bootcamp proof.

This is the first part of a three part series, highlighting kick ass brands that are essential for maximum bootcamp performance. The first brand that gets my bootcamp seal of approval is Zaggora. I’m literally obsessed with their gear and I packed as many Zaggora goodies as my Sweaty Betty sports bag would allow. Yes, I did just name drop my Sweaty Betty bag and let me just say that a Sweaty Betty bag isn’t exactly a bootcamp essential but you do need it in your life. It’s £70 but when you minus the EBay funds I made before my bootcamp departure it was practically free, non? It also doubles up as a great pillow on the train as it’s filled with down. I digress. So, the Zaggora range has something for everyone but if you think your bootcamp trainer won’t see you slacking off wearing neon pink Capri’s, you’re sadly mistaken. Opt for the black Capri’s and stay undetected yet stylish. Zaggora hotpants also give you a sneaky weight loss boost as they raise your body temperature making you sweat more than your average gym pants. I know this is not sexy but your thighs will thank you. This is also perfect if you are the competitive type and want to be the biggest loser at bootcamp. The black ones also go with everything and trust me you don’t want to be late for workouts because you weren’t sure if your Zaggora pants worked with your Stella slouch top. Unless that is you actually like press ups.
Pink Zaggora hot pants for when you want to stand out…
My favourite thing about Zaggora? Their garments are made out of wetsuit material and they are super durable. My humble hot pants survived a 21 mile hike as well as a 12 mile bike ride and back to back outdoor circuit classes. Now I’m a big fan of the outfit change but nothing compares to bootcamp. Book in for a week and you will give Lady Ga Ga a run for her money. I changed on average four or five times a day so I would suggest taking lots of spares. My Zaggora hot pants were my best friend at bootcamp, providing me with instant warmth on those freezing early morning runs. Did I mention they do jackets to match? With a fab arm pocket for your phone, this jacket is pretty yet practical and it has a neon yellow hood for improved visibility. Have you tried the Zaggora range?
