Products & Trends : Andare Run Skirt

Why leave the flirty skirts to the tennis team? New Balance's recently launched Andare Run Skirt is here to give your run an ultrafeminine feel. We know the idea of jogging in an A-line sounds silly, but the skirt is as much about function as it is style. Consider your typical running shorts ‑- you know, the kind you have to pull down constantly because they seem to ride up with every stride. With the skirt, the body-conforming shorts are built into the underside, making for a wedgie-free workout (hopefully!). New Balance claims its Phantom Waistband (think seamless) is so comfortable you won't even know it's there. The seamless technology and lack of baggy material are also supposed to lower your risk of chafing. Made of Lightning Dry Stride fabric, the skirt was designed with the woman-on-the-go in mind. The fabric manages moisture transfer, which means that even after your run you'll be dry enough to move on to your next activity. An added bonus: A small inside pocket provides a safe home for your keys, credit cards and other essentials.

10. Train for the Finish Line
Singer Sheryl Crow regularly cross-trains with a combo of running and cycling. In addition to regular jogs, she's prepping for a 100-mile bike ride by cranking up the resistance on a stationary bike until she can barely pedal, then bringing it back down, says trainer Greg Bahnfleth.

11. Mix Things Up
"Every day should be something a little different when it comes to your workout routine," says trainer Michael George, who has worked with Reese Witherspoon, shown here, jogging. "Otherwise, your body gets bored and you stop seeing results."

12. Band Together
Julia Roberts stays in shape with do-anywhere resistance-band exercises from trainer Kathy Kaehler, including standing on the band for double biceps curls and front and lateral shoulder raises.

Meredith Vieira often participates in charity run/walks that help raise funds for everything from cancer to mental health. Want to join a fun run? Check out these options.

Kate Hudson keeps fit by mixing things up. In addition to running, she takes Sheila Kelley's S Factor (pole dancing and striptease) classes regularly -- in 6-inch heels!

15. Ride On
Madonna should wear a helmet while she rides, but even so, cycling is a great way to cross-train, burning more than 500 calories an hour at a moderate pace and sculpting the abs, legs, and butt.

16. Shake It
Nikki Blonsky, just 18, loves dancing and adored training (hard!) for her role in the movie Hairspray. She told FITNESS that at one point, she was losing weight so quickly she had to drink protein shakes to stay at her character's size.

17. Be Fluid
"Drinking before and at frequent intervals during your workouts prevents dehydration, cramps, and overheating," says Pilates expert Daniel Loigerot, who works with Naomi Watts. For more hot-weather exercise tips, see our "Love Your Summer Workout" story.
