Training Day — Go From Work To Workout With These New Rebecca Minkoff Athletic Handbags
The right fitness gear can be as powerful a motivational tool as any high-energy, adrenaline-pumping playlist, outspoken and go-getter workout buddy, or motivational poster (you know, the ones with quotes like “If you’re tired of starting over, stop giving up,” and “Sweat is fat crying” that abound on Pinterest and which I personally find incredibly trite but seem to inspire many of my peers).
