15 Fitness Must-Haves That Plus-Size Athletes Swear By

Until pretty recently, plus-size women have had to make do with fitness products and apparel that weren’t really created with our bodies in mind. If you are part of this demographic you know what I'm talking about, right?

For a long time we made do with oversize T-shirts, ill-fitting bras that weren’t even necessarily intended to be used for fitness, and if you were lucky enough to find activewear it was typically made from cotton and resembled lounge wear. The athletic plus-size woman wasn’t taken seriously and that, my friends, was an economic mistake.

With the rise of the body-positive movement and brands now acknowledging the massive buying power from the plus-size market, services and products are becoming more and more readily available, thus removing one of many barriers to fitness. It has become clear that plus-size women do work out, want to look great and feel comfortable in their activewear, and will spend money on the clothes that will let us do all that.

I hope this list takes you one step closer to living your athletic dreams in the body you have right now! All products featured on SELF are independently selected by our editors or contributors. If you buy something through our retail links, we may earn an affiliate commission.
