Happy New Year! Ringing in 2019 with a kettle bell and a smiling work out partner. It’s never easy getting back to the gym post c-section and baby but Blanqi makes it feel better.
I first made aware of their amazing leggings and tanks during and after my first pregnancy so I knew this second time around they were going to be staples in maternity wardrobe. But since that time they have come out with a sports line of support wear that has been great in getting me back into exercising with my newborn.
Inspired by motherhood and designed for a marathon, the knit-in design details provide a second-skin fit for full range of motion. The leggings feature a two-ply comfort waistband that targets the midsection for secure support plus varying degrees of compression are built in to the design details for structure and support, camouflaging your body’s lumps and bumps. And believe me, I have plenty!
And the pull down postpartum nursing tank I literally wear ever day. It bridges the gap between fashion and function, as a high performance, postpartum support tank. Pulling it down is easy for breastfeeding with the absolute stretch-and-recovery fabric. And the highly technical, built-in support that smoothes, secures and strategically targets my post-baby body’s challenge areas is clutch! There is also balanced midsection compression that helps re-engage my core and keeps me energized. All this while still being comfortable to where and no restrictive at all. Major win!
I’m far from fit but I’ve got to start somewhere. I’m also trying to eat cleaner by making healthy choices that will help me shed some extra weight and tone up while not compromising my ability to continue nursing. So far between pumping iron and pumping milk, I’m beginning to feel stronger and ready for the new year ahead.
