Don't get me wrong, I love shopping for activewear. If I didn't, I wouldn't be managing editor of this site. But one thing I don't love? Spending a fortune on my gym clothes. I understand that you've got to shell out the big bucks for the high-quality stuff—the pieces that will keep you dry during hot yoga and the gear that will support you when you're doing the most in a HIIT class—but since I consider myself an extreme couponer at heart, it's hard for me to shell out over $100 for leggings.

That's why when Black Friday rolls around, I stock up on my favorite luxe activewear brands and hope that I'm all set until next year. Sometimes I succeed, and sometimes I just have to buy that seasonal crop top and leggings set during the summer because it's limited edition, so cute, and will motivate me to go to the gym. Overall, with a few exceptions throughout the year, I try to reserve my bulk activewear purchases for the day after Thanksgiving in preparation for whatever fitness New Year's resolution awaits me.

If you're planning on joining me with an annual activewear stock-up, take a look at what I'm eyeing:

Leggings

Sports Bras

Tops

Outerwear

Shoes and Accessories
