“I’m taking advantage of the roads being quieter to dust off my bike and build up my cycling confidence. It’s fun to do with my family and makes the weekends feel a bit different. I’m no speed freak, so these comfy Goodmove cargo pants are my choice over padded Lycra shorts.”

The cargo pants: A choice of three leg lengths with cuffed hems, to help avoid chain oil on clothes. In four versatile shades.

“Working from home has turned me into the runner I never thought I could be! Jogging in the mornings wakes me up and focuses my mind before I tackle my email inbox. Along with great tunes to get the endorphins going, my Goodmove leggings help me to go that extra mile.”

The Go Train leggings: Featuring side mesh panels for ventilation and a handy pocket large enough to fit a mobile phone.

“I moved flat a couple of months ago and so have been exploring the local area on foot during my lunch breaks. I’ve discovered that walking up and down hills is a surprisingly effective workout, plus it allows me to take in the changing seasons in a mindful way. This pink sweater doesn’t necessarily look like activewear, making it ideal for wearing around the house or popping out to the supermarket, too.”

The ombré-effect sweater: Made from soft, breathable cotton, which is sustainably sourced and BCI-certified.

“I miss going to the gym but online classes are getting me through the lockdown, whether that’s a dynamic yoga class or a high-intensity workout. I’ve realised it’s important to wear the right kit – and that includes this sports bra – even when exercising on the lounge floor (pyjamas just don’t cut it).”

The mesh high-impact sports bra: Non-padded and non-wired for comfort, without compromising on support.
