“During my expedition, I developed insomnia, and I’ve had a hard time falling asleep ever since. I'm up with the sun, so my day is shot if I can't get to bed at a reasonable hour. Since I’m not one to take prescription pills, the closest cure I've found is one or two bags of this tea—or three if I’m really in a pinch.”


“This resistance band is a game-changer. It activates the muscles for glute, hip, and hamstring strengthening. Plus, it’s made out of a durable material. It’s lasted me so long.”


“As someone who’s had their fair share of knee injuries, I’ve found that turmeric helps me the same—if not more—than Advil. I’ve made a habit of sprinkling it on everything.”


“After I wake up, I splash my face with water and then coat my face and neck with this bronzing tint. I love the way it smells, and how it hydrates and makes my skin glow. It’s light enough to wear before a workout or beneath makeup.”


“I whip this out when I’m on a plane or in a café and need to get work done. I refer to it as my portable office; it fits all my essentials. It’s so sleek.”


“Since high school, I’ve ridden my mom’s Bianchi, which was passed down from her friend. It’s gotten me through countless triathlons. It wasn’t until last year that I saved up enough money to buy my own carbon-fiber road bike. I knew without question that it had to be a Bianchi.”


“This foam roller has two intensities. It’s also super-compact and fits into my carry-on or gym bag.”


“These wetsuits have a contoured seam, which allows for a skin-tight hold and waist-up buoyancy that makes for a better swim. My favorite goggles are their R1 pair. I went for months of swims before I had to de-fog them.”
