Today we're shining a much-deserved spotlight on ENELL Ambassador Brooke Pleger. Today she's competing in the Olympic Trials in her sport of Hammer Throw. 

Forget the gym bag, it’s summatime!! If you plan it right, you’ll be swimming, dancing, and hiking your way through the best season of the summer and won’t have time to mess with the gym. Outdoor yoga fests, trendy 5K runs, and heavy lifting transferring fresh salsa and tortilla chips to your mouth--what more does a girl need this time of year?

We want to see you having fun wherever your pretty little feet may land -- in the river, in the sand, in your hammock. Packing a “beach bag” that goes along on all of your summer adventures ensures you’re at the ready for a good time no matter what.

For starters, The Feminist Activity Book needs to be the first thing you pack. By artist Gemma Correll, it’s filled with activities that fuel “your egalitarian dreams,” like Feminist All-Star Trading Cards and Sexist Social Media Bingo.

If you’re not coloring at the beach, are you even living? You can go super adult with the irreverent Sit the F*ck Down and Color or the more inspiring Good Vibes Coloring Book. Keep these and your favorite pens or pencils close for a coloring timeout anywhere you please.

Of course, if you color an adult coloring book -- or spend any IRL time with friends -- you’ll have to take a picture or it didn’t happen. The Podo camera is hot! Fits in the palm of your hand and sticks to any surface to take a picture of you and your friends living up the summer. It syncs with an app that automatically drops the photos on your phone for instant sharing.

The perfect sipper for sharing at the beach, on a boat, at a concert, or wherever you find yourself is canned wine. It’s delightful, mobile, shareable, and will make your summer 2016 photos look supremely better than 2015. Union Wine Company was the first, and Infinite Monkey Theorem and Sofia also make tasty, widely available options.

A water-resistant zipper pouch is also essential, in case you spill your canned wine or fall victim to a cannonball splash. Cute options are available everywhere to hold your ID, cash, keys, and even your phone. We like this one at Heyden Reis.

Don’t just protect your valuables, though. Your skin needs some coverage, too! This homemade/DIY coconut oil sunscreen smells delicious, makes your skin feel great, and offers and an SPF of up to 25.

Finally, keep your entire body hydrated in the summer heat by never being without water. The Hydro Flask bottles come in a rainbow of striking colors - one sure to match your ENELL SPORT bra - and vacuum insulated to keep your beverage ice cold for up to 24 unbelievable hours!

Thanks to ENELL Retailer Fleet Feet Sports Scottsdale for including an ENELL SPORT bra in this segment on Sonoran Living on ABC 15 Arizona.

Adulting is hard has become a popular meme. Never before have adults been able to adult with other adults in such an open and social forum. Perhaps it really is harder than ever? (Nah, come on. Modern conveniences and all.) Or maybe, we’re just all hyper-aware of how adulting kind of blows sometimes and we had a really good thing when we were kids.

Naps…honestly, why did we fight them? Eating dinner in such a passionate way that you wear half of it to bed. Running barefoot in the yard chasing fireflies. Heck, running braless in the yard because you didn’t have giant knockers.

The joys of childhood are too plentiful to name here, but we’ve got room for one special piece...summer camp. School’s out, sun’s out, peace out mom and dad! A week, a month? Didn’t matter. It wasn’t ever long enough to be out in the woods and on the lake with friends curated in the magic of those long, lazy days.

This summer, recapture a bit of that magic with your own take on adult summer camp. Take a vacay that’s just for you. Look, if the diamond industry could convince us all that our right hand needed a “ring for me,” then we can convince you that a day or seven away from adulting is something you actually need.

Here’s where we’d go…

The Sonoma Cycling and Yoga Experience will delight your senses in California’s wine country. You’ll fill a week cycling through the vineyards, hiking in the redwoods, daily yoga, meditation, dancing, and massage. Plus, you’ll be treated to culinary and wine experiences.

Glamping Getaways really get you in touch with the summer camp style of yesteryear… but with far more style. Imagine camping in unique destinations with tricked out accommodations. Glampsites are available around the world to suit every size party and interest.

Running Cruises are exactly what they sound like…cruises that involve some mainland running excursions. Pack your swimmies and your best runners and hit the trail in Alaska, Italy, France or the Caribbean.

Yoga on the Rocks lets you practice your flow in the one of the most extraordinary venues in the world. Make a weekend of your trip to Denver and add hiking in the mountains, runs along the Platte River, and refreshments at any number of local breweries.

FitBloggin is a fitness and wellness blogging & social media conference that is routinely referred to as adult summer camp by its fun-loving, highly inspirational alumni. Join them in Indianapolis in July for four days away from reality and deep in the heart of something truly rewarding.

I have a bra habit that I didn’t realize was so bad until I got called out by a salesperson. I fold the cups into each other when they’re put away in a drawer, shoved in a suitcase, or apparently standing in line to buy a new one.

“Oh no! Don’t ever do this,” she said as the bra was taken rescued from my hands. She explained that misshaping the cups this way is a quick and easy way to break down the fibers of the bra.

Seems obvious, but what else have I been doing wrong? It stands to reason that we wouldn’t all score a 100% on a bra care exam. So here’s a quick study guide to help you take better care of your bras. You’ll extend the life of the bra and they’ll offer better support. Who knew bras were looking for such a reciprocal relationship?

Boost their rotation.

If you’ve only got one or two daily-wear bras, they’re going to burn up quickly. Keep three or four in rotation, giving bras a few down days between wears to give the elastic time to recover.

Wash carefully.

Handwashing is ideal, but who has time for that? Use the gentlest setting on your washer -- gentle or delicate -- for cleaning your bras. Specialty mesh bags also help protect the bra. Special detergent will make a difference, too. Specialty delicates wash will take better care of the fibers, something like our pure and gentle Soak Wash.

Don’t weigh them down.

When machine washing, follow your grandma’s rules to wash like items together. Bras with other bras and panties only! Washing with heavy items like jeans, sweatshirts, and towels can damage your bras.

Definitely don’t dry them.

Oh man, bra ownership cardinal rule number one … don’t put your bras in the dryer! The heat breaks down the elastic and fibers, irreparably damaging the material. Always air dry them, preferably by laying them flat.

Close the clasps.

Before throwing in the washer, close all of the clasps. This prevents snagging and tears.

Store them flat.

This may be the only time you use flat and your bras in the same sentence, but it’s important! Don’t make the fatal twist & fold mistake that I did. When packing in suitcases or away in drawers, keep them flat and as close to their natural shape as possible. Mine usually hang from a hook in the closet or off the back of the closet door… so hopefully I’m not messing that up, too!
