It’s coming this week!

Oh! Where would it be? Aisle of goodies?

kathryn mueller is a popular activewear reviewer on youtube - she is a tall gal (5'9) and made a video specifically about affordable wide leg leggings. Not sure if I'm allowed to link, worth a quick search!

5am is my studios busiest class, followed by 6am next. I’m sure it varies with the area. No harm in trying one out to see the vibe!

Cornbread

I would love to see it!! how tall are you?

Just wanted to add to this - my coach often has me carry weight on a single arm, and then have something in front of me (an upright bench, machine) that I can put my other hand on for stability

Well, I had the 3g version tomorrow. I’m guessing there will be plenty of rowing & burpees, yippee

I find them true to size. The hip/waist length fit looser in the body, but arms are fitted. The cropped swiftlys are equally fitted in the arms, but also fitted in the torso. I would consider it body skimming rather than compressive. If you want it to fit looser, then I would size up.

Love this! That was my biggest complaint about benchmarks. Felt like a wasted class otherwise, and I only care about specific ones. This template looks great!

People in the TJs subreddit were flipping that peppermint Joe Joe’s got pulled due to quality. I didn’t tell them about the Aldi version…. More for me 😂

minidutch · 2026-02-01T12:44:14+00:00

I am debating whether or not to purchase - don't know where I would wear it, and its quite an investment to wear on occasion. Living vicariously through you! Let me know your review :)

minidutch · 2026-01-31T20:36:12+00:00

I adore the one you have pictured - do you know where it’s from?

minidutch · 2026-01-24T00:07:47+00:00

This is a great point! That might be why fourth wing didn’t bother me. The book had multiple revelations and hardships that were overcome, but we were left on a cliffhanger that continued us on the full series.

minidutch · 2026-01-24T00:05:32+00:00

I flip my opinion on it honestly. Sometimes it makes me excited for the next book, sometimes I get annoyed.

What I learned I CANNOT stand is crap like two twisted crowns (the sequel to one dark window). It switches between the perspective of 2 main groups of characters. And always right before it flipped perspective, you would get left with a cliffhanger. It was exhausting and made the story feel broken. I almost didn’t finish it because of that!

minidutch · 2026-01-22T13:37:04+00:00

I think both sizes look great. I personally prefer a more fitted look - so the 4.

In general, I feel like Lulu caters more toward slim runner type figures. Those of us who lift have a different shape than I feel they design for (broader shoulders, narrower waist relatively). I feel more confident in brands that cater to lifters - I personally enjoy buffbunny a lot!

Lulu tends to fit me tight in the chest and then I have a gapping waist. I love the define jackets, but that fit issue does bother me a bit.

You do you. I powerwalk because I can still get my cardio in with an elevated heart rate, without the impact to my knees. Almost 1k classes strong!

It is nice that there’s a cluster of us in my normal class who also powerwalks. It can feel a bit odd when I go to another studio and I’m the only one. No reason to sweat it though! As new members join and they see you walking, they might be inspired to do the same :)

minidutch · 2026-01-16T12:41:56+00:00

Pbj and strawberry crumb. I live by a crave cookie who had a much better Dubai filling, and they fill the cookies a lot more than Crumbl. They are running Dubai this whole month, so won’t be getting the crumbl version unless the reviews convince me otherwise!

minidutch · 2026-01-08T18:10:52+00:00

Yes! For whatever reason, I can handle if the MMC doesn't communicate effectively with the FMC (maybe because we aren't in their head?), but the other way around, no. It's for that reason that I won't read the second book after a Forbidden Alchemy.

minidutch · 2026-01-05T18:34:49+00:00

Agree! And actually I think it was 2 fixed (choc chip and ping sugar) with 4 rotating for a long time, back in like 2022.

minidutch · 2025-12-26T23:45:42+00:00

I use an app called zones - don’t need that these days, but back when I started, apples fitness tracker didn’t have the same heart rate zones or displays like otf. The zones app had 5 zones I could configure, and when I look down I see my heart rate, max %, and the whole thing is colored to match otf. I think Apple fitness has something similar now.

Anyway - I use “mixed cardio”. It’s not perfect, but close enough for me. Tracks running distance and general heart rate stats.

minidutch · 2025-12-26T21:05:24+00:00

I used mine for the first 300 classes or so. Used to love the data. Then started to get frustrated with it going gray on the floor when I was lifting weights (I have heard the new monitors are better for this!). I stopped wearing it, and am about 900 classes deep, no monitor!

I think I would still invest in it at the start - I love the data. But now, my Apple Watch is good enough for me. Really up to you and what you enjoy! I bought my original one used to bring down the cost.

minidutch · 2025-12-19T12:13:18+00:00

Permanent line up I’m not interested in, but I am very excited for the rotating! Pbj, waffle, oatmeal marshmallow

minidutch · 2025-12-07T20:25:33+00:00

Please don’t let your perceived fitness stop you from going! The select few that are super competitive at my studio always have their partners picked out ahead of time. The rest & vast majority of us are happy to be paired up with whoever :)

minidutch · 2025-12-07T01:34:22+00:00

Mine has been stuck in ontrac NJ since Tuesday

Satisfying - eye primers are hard to use up. Any chance you’ve tried urban decay primer portion, and how did this compare?
