As a huge Whitney Simmons, I’ve been wanting to try Gymshark apparel for awhile now after seeing how amazing she looks in them but couldn’t justify paying full price. Well I decided that since I had a new baby, it was time for me to get into shape so some new gym clothes and atheleisure wear was needed. Luckily, the Black Friday sale was really good and I was able to pick up a few things for 50% off! Also make sure you read to the bottom to see how I got an additional 10% off my entire order.
Camo seamless leggings
This was something I was very surprised with. I got them in sage green and Lavender grey. When you first take it out of the package it wasn’t super soft buttery leggings like I was expecting. They are a thick material and is stretchy but with a lot of compression. I guess I was thinking they would be like Lululemon Aligns but they are not. They are tight to put on at first but once they are on, they are surprisingly comfortable and the quality is top notch. I can see why they are a favorite. The colours are amazing! the lavender is just beautiful and even though I am not a green person, the sage is stunning. There is also some ruching in the butt to accentuate your butt. They pull everything in, have a lot of compression, but not overly tight. I could wear them all day. They are definitely squat proof and make your butt and legs look amazing. I love how high waisted they are. They took a bit to get use to as I am not use to leggings with such compression but they do feel great on. I do wish they were softer but then it wouldn’t have the compression. They are also extremely long for my 5’2 height. Overall I would definitely recommend these leggings but only if you can get them on sale.
Camo seamless long sleeve crop top
I got theses in the lavender grey and sage green. This I could do without. It is the exact same material as the leggings but it is soooo hard to put on. I mean it was so tight to put my shoulders in. Once it was on it felt great but it was way to much effort. Also taking it off was a b*tch. It looks great as an outfit but I wish it was not so tight so I could take it on and off easier. I got these to match the bottoms but I probably won’t be wearing them to work out. Also I would not pay regular price as they are $60!
Vital Seamless Leggings
I got these in Teal Marl and I have to say that these make your butt look amazing. They have about the same amount of compression as the camo leggings but the material is different. They only way I can describe it is a smooth tough material. They are smooth sleek feel while the camo is a rough material. They are just as long as the camo and the design on it really accentuates your butt. Overall these are a great buy if on sale and cheaper than the camo leggings. These were also 50% off so I am glad I picked up a pair of these.
Student Beans
As a student, you can get a discount code from Student beans! Student Beans is a site that offers discounts on many stores for students. All you need is a school email to sign up or if you know someone who is in school, they can get you a coupon. As a member, you can get a coupon every 10 minutes! They always have a 10% off coupon but I have seen the discount go up to 30% off! Since the black friday sale was an automatic 50% off, I was able to use my coupon code to get an addition 10% off. Heres a link to sign up! Its free! I also don’t get anything if you sign up. I just wanted to share
Overall the quality of theses leggings are surprisingly good. I can see that they are very durable and will last a long time. I can see how people would pay full price for them but I personally hate paying full price for anything and $90 for a pair a leggings is a bit much as there are some that are just as good for a lot less.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Leave a comment below and your thoughts on Gymshark

Hey there 🙂
Your wordpress site is very sleek – hope you don’t mind me asking
what theme you’re using? (and don’t mind if I steal it? :P)
I just launched my site –also built in wordpress like yours– but the theme
slows (!) the site down quite a bit.
In case you have a minute, you can find it by searching for “royal cbd” on Google
(would appreciate any feedback) – it’s still in the works.
Keep up the good work– and hope you all take care of yourself
during the coronavirus scare!
