The Best Workout Pants for a Pear Shape Body

It's definitely workout season…….and we all are on the search for the BEST WORKOUT PANTS.  After 8 months of testing, I'm sharing the best workout pants for a pear shape body!

Looking for the best workout pants for a pear shape body! These are the five top pairs, from budget to luxury workout wear!

I know, I know.  We all have workout wear on the brain.  After months of cookies, cocktails, and you know……celebrating……I feel like the whole world has vowed to get healthy.  Gyms are full, we're all trying new workout classes (I'm on a total Orange Theory Fitness kick)…..and sometimes, having a great workout outfit is the only thing that gets me moving.  

Here's the issue with workout pants for a pear shape body.  The best ones? Have enough give to workout in, fit hips and thighs, and don't stretch out mid workout.  Bonus points? The best workout pants are actually flattering.

After trying over 20 pairs of workout pants…….I'm sharing my top five picks for the best workout pants!

How To Dress for A Pear Shape: Workout Pants

Looking for the best workout pants for a pear shape body?!? I love these AERIE leggings!

AERIE MOVE HIGH WAISTED LEGGING  (size Large, $44): I know, I know……I talk about these workout pants all the time.  They're THAT good.  I own them in about a million prints.  They fit like a dream, wash and wear well, and I've worn them for casual daywear with a sweatershirt as well.

If you're looking for the best workout pants for a pear shape body......these printed leggings by Fabletics are a KILLER price!

FABLETICS POWERLIGHT GIA CAPRI (size Large, 2 for $24 with VIP Membership): These are a recent find, and they fit amazingly well.  Each month they release fun, new prints and they're a KILLER price.  I love that they're high waisted enough to hold everything in.

On the search for running tights? These are the BEST workout pants for a pear shape....and are perfect for long runs!

RUNNING GIRL HIGH WAISTED RUNNING LEGGINGS (size Large, $17.99): Who'd have thought? Stellar fitting running tights for under $20.  I found these on Amazon, by reading buyer reviews.  And honestly? They're worth a million dollars.  They fit like a dream, stretch perfectly and are GREAT for longer runs.  No rubbing, and they come in a bunch of fun colors.

Are you part of the Zella leggings cult? They're some of the BEST workout pants for a pear shape body, and fit like a dream!

ZELLA HIGH WAIST LEGGINGS (size Large, $54 – $59): These are the holy grail of workout pants.  They're the BEST WORKOUT PANTS I've ever worn.  I even did a full on review of them (you can read it HERE).  I couldn't believe they were as great as everyone said.  They are.  Fit perfectly.  High waisted enough to stay put over large hips.  Come in a ton of fun colors.  Worth every penny.

On the search for basic, neutral workout gear? These are the best workout pants for a pear shape!

JOCKEY ACTIVE JUDO LEGGING (size Large, $21): I teamed up with Jockey to do an instagram post last month.  And was blown away by how much I liked these leggings.  They're a great price, a little thinner fabric, perfect workout pants for outdoor workouts in warmer weather.  I love that they're a great neutral color.

    I love the AERIE MOVE HIGH WAISTED LEGGING – actually, they are all nice. I’ve never paid more than a few dollars for leggings from discount stores. I’m missing out. I’d love to try these, and they look terrific on you.

    I am definitely going to order a pair from Fabletics. I’ve had a membership for a couple years, and it’s been a while since I’ve treated myself to workout outfit!

    I really appreciate your research and I M going to order a few of those right now! I have such an issue with the waist being too big if the hips fit just right. Im shaped just like you but one size bigger. Wish me luck!

🎉HAPPY REOPENING DAY TOONTOWN!!!!!🎉⠀ ⠀ W 🎉HAPPY REOPENING DAY TOONTOWN!!!!!🎉⠀⠀We loved visiting yesterday for a preview of this reimagined area.  It’s absolutely perfect for getting your wiggles out, having a picnic and yup……..getting your Disney feels fix.⠀⠀My top recommendations when visiting this new area?⠀⠀1) mobile order from Cafe Daisy…..we loved the pizza options and the cold brew⠀2) play play play in Goofy’s How-To-Play Yard, and inside his house…..⠀3) take the time to walk through Minnie and Mickey’s houses, you’ll probably see a surprise friend or two!⠀4) absolutely yes to the picnic basket from Good Boy! Grocer.  It’s a STELLAR price and a really fun experience to pick out your own snacks.⠀5) Mickey’s and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is a perfect full family ride.  I’d suggest trying for this earlier in the day if you can.⠀6) Keep an eye out for Pete, it’s so much fun to see him wandering the area.⠀⠀#Disneyland #Toontown #Mickey #Minnie #MMRR @disneyland @disneyparks invited guest
✨There’s something in my eye…….oh it’s j ✨There’s something in my eye…….oh it’s just pixie dust.⠀⠀When I think of Lydia’s earliest visits to Disneyland….I think of Toontown.  I think of Minnie’s House and meeting Mickey and playing next to Goofy’s House.  I think of the adorable landscape and the magic that the area creates for the youngest and the young at heart.⠀⠀✨Today we visited Toontown for a sneak peek before it’s reopening tomorrow…..and yup, that pixie dust definitely got in my eye.  More than once.⠀⠀Toontown is even more magical than it was (partially thanks to the addition of a cold brew on the menu at Cafe Daisy (good call Disney food and beverage team). ⠀⠀✨My favorite moments from today’s sneak preview?⠀1️⃣ we saw Pete. He’s even better than I’d hoped.2️⃣ I love love love the food options in Toontown! Highlights: the picnic basket snack option Good Boy! Grocers, the cold brew and a delicious gluten free fold over pizza (regular looked great too)3️⃣ the new play areas are amazing! Goofy’s How to Play Area is phenomenal and filled with a ton of new interactions. ⠀Happy reopening Toontown.  Can’t wait to see you again real soon. ⠀⠀Have you visited Toontown? Are you planning to come see all updates?⠀⠀#Disneyland #Toontown #Mickey #Minnie #MMRR @disneyland @disneyparks invited guest

There are people cheering you on…..and you don’t even realize it.I learned a LOT during the 7 months of training for this race.  I learned that I should stretch and warm up (thanks pulled muscle for that life lesson), I learned that small progress over time leads to achieving big goals.  I learned that sunshine and being outside makes me a happier person.  I learned that I’m more of an athlete than I thought I was. But most of all? I learned……there are a whole lot of people in your cheering section and you might not even know they’re sitting there.  After I pulled this muscle, I was amazed by the sweet and kind messages while I tried to prepare to run my first 10k with an injury.  But NOTHING prepared me for the ovwhelming amount of kindness and support that flooded into my inbox when I crossed the finish line.  From the early morning you can do this messages to the ones that came in throughout the race to the inspiring amount of support as I iced my pulled muscle…..it brought me to tears.And the amazing thing? When Jennifer and Lashawn and I found each other at the finish line….they said the same thing.  It’s not just me.  We all have a cheering section.  And wow, do they show up when you may not be expecting them.Got a big goal? Working on something new? Share it in the comments.  I’d love to join your support team.#medalmonday #rundisney
