Your Perfect 7.10-7.12 Weekend

EAT

We now know how to discern the healthy chips from the tales, but can you play them right? When you finish a bag of Guiltless Gourmet chips (through September 30th), enter its code on the Web site to see if its your ticket to hundreds of prizes. Personally, we’re playing for the 4 day/3 night stay at a five-diamond Las Vegas resort, a $1,500 spa gift certificate and $1,500 in cash. http://www.guiltlessgourmetsweeps.com/entry.form

SWEAT

Bungee chord meets trampoline at the Women’s Health free one-day Are You Game? event where the mag’s reps encourage you to try new cardio options (like we do!). In addition to the experimenting with Euro Bungee, you’ll play Million Dollar Knockout, hula-hoop Pilates and get some spa treatments. July 11, Hudson River Park at Pier 46 (Charles Street and West Street), 10a.m – 5 p.m. http://origin.www.womenshealthmag.com/areyougame/

CHILL

We’re not sure how a slimming massage works, but we’re not asking questions. Dashing Diva’s citrus-based aromatherapy summer special, “Slim Diva,” comes with such a ten-minute leg and foot rub, cooling neck kneading and pedicure.

SHOP

We posted Omala’s Bamboo Double Layer tank in our Dip Deeper section on Wednesday, before, we found out that Skinny Dippers would be treated to 25% discount off all purchases through July 13th. It’s def going in our Skinny shopping cart now. Enter the promotion code SkinnyDipOMALA at checkout. http://www.omalausa.com/

JUST BREATHE

From down dogging in Union Square to running around in circles in Prospect Park, we’re taking advantage of the (finally) dried skies, no matter the frizz factor. Still, we’re not gonna put up with yellow stains or suffocating fabrics. SDC’s resident fashionista, Jessica Lerew, investigated breathable workout options that span the Skinny Steal VS. Dip Deeper price spectrum and all the sports in between, so we’ll never have to question keeping our arms up while we hula-hoop.

Cruising downhill with the wind whipping against our faces is just fan-tastic until we come to an abrupt stop at the foot of Central Park’s monstrous Harlem Hill. You’ll keep going when you’re wearing one of these shirts which have you covered (but not too much).

SKINNY: $60 Hot orange, but as cool as our favorite empire waist shirts that give us ample room to move no matter what we eat, the wide front straps on Schrader by Terry’s cycling shirt have an integrated support bra, but gives way just beneath the chest all the way to the hip.

$94.99

DIP: $94.99
Indie Bike’s sweetheart Giordana’s Shaped Racerback isn’t just flattering—the flexi straps also keep our arms unrestricted. Composed mostly of comfy Supplex material, the added mesh panel behind two rear pockets keeps the sun’s rays from beating sweat circles into our backs.

$39

YOGA

Sure we could be Zen enough to overcome any sweltering moments while holding an extended Warrior Three, but on broiling days like today, we don’t think we have to try.

SKINNY: $39 Neon green and composed of company’s kid sister fabric, Luon Light, Lululemon Athletica’s Cool Racerback will certainly draw attention, but only for its color and fit, not any wet marks, because this lightweight material is both chafe resistant and perspiration protected.

$60

DIP: $60 Omala’s Bamboo Double Layer Cami gives you support with a built in shelf and an alternate colored waist band, without sacrificing the breathability since the soft bamboo fiber sucks out moisture.

HIKE

Trekking through the woods always give us the false impression of a verdant lush green filled afternoon–not muggy terrain. These tops keep such illusions alive.

$20

SKINNY: $20 The North Face W Velocitee Crew’s fabric sweeps sweat to the shirt’s outer layer, away from plain sight and the set-in sleeves give some bonus protection from wayward twigs and (ick) bugs.

$40

DIP: $40

Patagonia’s Women Shade Running shirt’s off-set shoulder seams reduce chafing under your backpack , cute gathers add shape without bulk and the material wicks moisture and dries fast. When you do you get hot, you won’t get burned, because this guy protects you with 30 UPF. Oh, and you’ll give it back to nature when you recycle it through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

RUN

We wait all year to ditch the treadmill and then get all whiney when it’s too hot. We need a new excuse.

$14.99

SKINNY: $14.99 The fact that Under Armour’s Women’s Action Racer Back is part of their HeatGear line kind of threw us off. But once we experienced its ability to improve airflow and mobility, prevent boo boos with its side seams and control odor, we realized we couldn’t care less what they call it.

$48

DIP: $48

With adiStar Shimmel’s complicated technology like ClMACOOL (to keep you dry) and FORMOTION (to support your muscles) and a high impact bra to keep you comfy, we’d be suspicious of this shirt’s true job if it weren’t for the signature stripes.
