Pearl Izumi Gets Technical
Pearl Izumi ruffled some feathers with its ad campaign pitting runner against joggers, but regardless they make amazing biking gear. Recently, the company released clothing made with four technical fabrics designed to reduce drag, regulate body temperature, and address the problems of moisture. They sent me a few items to check out, which meant a couple of bike rides and a spin class over the course of a few days — any excuse to hop on my bike.
Are Runners Not Joggers?
I recently came across the new Pearl Izumi ad campaign and I am a little peeved. The theme of the campaign is "We are not joggers," which basically belittles joggers in the name of runners.
The whole campaign completely reminds me of the article that blamed Oprah for the decline in the status of the marathon.
Get Your Butt in Gear: Pearl Izumi Sugar Short
Riding your bike is a great cardio workout since it's fun, fast, and the constant breeze keeps you cool. If you don't ride your bike that often, you probably have a sensitive bum, so I definitely recommend getting yourself some padded bike shorts.
Made by Pearl Izumi, Sugar Short certainly protects your booty and keeps you looking and feeling cool!
Get Your Butt In Gear: Pearl Izumi Attack Shorts
When you are spending a lot of time on the saddle, biking for hours at a time, you need to protect your lady business. The designers at Pearl Izumi know this little fact and have designed their Attack Shorts with this in mind. These seamless racing shorts have a women-specific chamois (that's the fancy name for "padding") to prevent possible friction points by providing padding in key areas.
Gear Review: Pearl Izumi Ultrasensor Bike Shorts
I decided it was time for a new pair of biking shorts. I received a pair as a gift from a biking enthusiast boyfriend, way back in my college days, but this time I was buying my own. After trying on a thousand pairs, and polling my biker-chick friends on their favorite brands, I went with the Peal Izumi Ultrasensor Shorts ($95).
Gym Time: Pearls of Wisdom Covered in Sweat
At my house we have a saying, "Not trying is as bad as lying." It was created in response to hearing my girls say, "I can't do that" before even making an attempt. Today, my Equinox trainer Hannah busted me saying the exact same thing.
Jenna Fischer Is the Office Hottie
I'm a huge fan of The Office, mostly because I've loved following the romance between the adorable receptionist Pam and her co-worker, now husband, Jim Halpert. Check out the cover of the November issue of Shape to see that Jenna Fischer, who plays the down-to-earth Pam, is smokin' hot once she takes off her cardigan and pearls. This wasn't always the case though.
Probiotics: Beneficial or a Waste of Money?
Probiotics certainly were a health buzzword of 2008. These healthy bacteria can now be found in all sorts of products from dairy products to energy bars, from cereals to dietary supplements. These probiotic products claim to help with high blood pressure, digestive problems such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and constipation.
Get in Gear: Indoor Biking Shoes
When it comes to biking gear it is hard to find reasonably priced goods. A user recently asked for help in finding a good biking shoe for indoor use. When shopping for spinning shoes you want to make sure the shoe breathes, hot feet can make a spin class less enjoyable.
