lululemon FIT review : paddle edition

I love lululemon

I’m sure that comes as NO surprise to you, if you’ve followed me for long or know me at all!

When I started lemonLOVES, I planned to do a lot of FIT reviews. Between covid, racial injustice, and my own journey with post concussion syndrome, I have gotten off track with FIT reviews. Now I intend to keep on with them, as long as people find them useful!

up this week…lululemon’s annual swim/paddle line

We’ve had record heat in Phoenix this week, so it feels right to highlight the various water-friendly wear!

In these photos, I’m wearing the Run the Waves Crop and the Swell Seeker Paddle Suit. Over the years, I have fallen in love with Lululemon‘s active aquatic line due to the function, inspiration, and tactical design features.

In today’s post, I am including:

  • a summary card of the FIT review

  • nine exercises I recommend for a day at the pool

  • a video where I highlight the product in motion

  • some links to purchase online.

If you do choose to make a purchase through your links, know that your purchase supports this blog and my mission to bring health and wellness education, mindfulness tools, and movement to as many people as possible.

I so appreciate your support!


Fit = Function, Inspiration, Technical Elements

Function:

  • Anything water-related! When I have paddled before, I have fallen in the water (nine times out of ten).

Inspiration:

It’s always in the details.

  • The crops feature a zipper at the low back (amazing for getting those wet clothes on and off!).

  • There’s also a lanyard to attach your keys.

  • For the paddle suit, I adore the cord attached to the zipper to make for an easy breezy zip-on, zip-off experience.

Technical elements:

  • UPF material to help protect your skin from the sun!

  • Quick drying Esca fabric with Lycra; helps keep the colors vibrant despite chlorine and salt.

My FIT scorecard for the annual paddle line.


Sweat tested

I definitely took advantage of my amazing friends pool for this stretch series. Find some water and enjoy!
