Announcing the 2012 Fitties!

This post is part of our FBG Birthday Week celebration! Check out all of the special four-year birthday posts and huge giveaways here!

There are the Oscars, the Emmys, the Tonys—and even MTV’s Golden Popcorn awards. But when it comes to fitness, what’s the best of the best? While we may not be able to do a big-time awards show, we think that the following products are uber fabulous, can’t-live-without-’em stuff from the past 365 days. So, please, sit back and enjoy the 2012 Fitties!

Fitties: Apparel

Best tank: So good you’ll want 12 of them, the adidas TECHFIT Tank is exactly what you want in a workout top: airy, light, breathable, flattering and cute.

Best sports bra: Don’t flinch at the price of the Shock Absorber Sports Bra. It’s worth every penny. You’ll want to wear and wash and wear and wash and wear and, well, you get the idea.

Best line to feel oh-so pretty in: With ruffles and ruching, you’ll feel like a fit goddess in KiraGrace.

Go ahead and buy 12 of these. They're that good.

Best tights for winter: How Mizuno makes these running tights both light-weight and warm is beyond us, but they rock.

Best fitness sunglasses that don’t look like fitness sunglasses: These sunglasses are flattering, comfortable, pretty and work at keeping your peepers protected. Great to rock during your run—and after.

Best toning capris: Fila’s Space Dye Toning Restistance Tight Capris are not only flattering, they feel good. And the feathered grey look? Just another thing we’re smitten with.

Best hoodie: It’s soft, bright and water-proof. We need not say more.

Best running shorts: Not too short, not too long and with no wedgies, these $30 running shorts are a home run.
