Let's face it, some of us need some real motivation when it comes to working out. Some people like to buy cute workout clothes, others download great songs, some people workout with friends, some hang their itsy bitsy teeny weeny polka dot bikini in their closet...the list could go on and on.

Motivation showed up in my mailbox the other day in the form of a sweat towel. That may not sound exciting to some of you but for this "red faced sweater" it was exciting. Sent to me so kindly for review by Dana, owner of Words to Sweat By™, this towel is not your typical workout towel. Each towel is appliqued with an original mantra that is meant to motivate you while you strive to reach your health and fitness goals.

The towel I picked was the "whatever you do, don't hold your breath" version (again, very appropriate for this red faced sweater) and I love it! Besides being fun and different, the towels are functional to boot! They are absorbent and the perfect size to tote with you on a run, to pilates, aerobics, really anywhere you might need to wipe your brow! You can see all the towels and their clever mantras at:

Words to Sweat By™ towels are clever, motivating and some are just smile provoking - and who couldn't use that once in a while?! Thank you Dana for putting the fun back into my workouts!
