The Lululemon Align bodysuit is a favourite with yogis, but Primark's new version is £124 cheaper, comes in four colours and and looks almost identical
Finding the motivation to work out, especially in the colder months, can be tricky. The lure of the sofa and snacks often outweigh doing a downward dog in a chilly village hall. So if your new year's resolution to smash your fitness goals hasn't quite got off the ground, then we're right there with you.
However, although money definitely can't buy happiness, it can buy new workout gear, and we often find that when we're sporting some new sportswear we feel a bit more motivated to hit the gym. There's just something about wearing new leggings or trainers that make us feel a bit more dedicated.

'£124 cheaper than Lululemon'
If classes like yoga and Pilates are your vibe, then you've likely seen the sleek all-in-one bodysuits from luxe activewear brand Lululemon. But while fans rave about them, one of the Align bodysuits will set you back £138. Which would mean you'd have to do a LOT of fitness classes to get your cost-per-wear down.
Thankfully, Primark has come to the rescue, launching its own range of workout bodysuits. Available in four different colours and part of the retailer's collaboration with Spanish model and actress Paula Echevarría, Primark's version of the unitard only costs £14 – that's a whopping £124 less than Lululemon.
What's more, one of the criticisms of the Lululemon bodysuit is that the bra cups come up small, but by buying Primark's you'll swerve that issue because their style is seam free.
Paula Echevarría performance racerback unitard
£14
Available in pink, mocha, charcoal and black, this bodysuit comes in sizes XXS-XL.
Primark says:
'You’ll wonder how you ever lived without this stylish all-in-one!
'The unitard has finally entered our everyday wardrobes and we’re not mad about it! No longer limited to dancers or figure skaters, this black all-in-one can be worn as a sleek workout outfit or base layer.
'It’s made from a soft, stretchy material, has a long length for added comfort while you’re working out, and boasts a halter neck front and racerback design for a stylish finish.
'Also benefiting from a seamfree construction, this unitard aims to reduce friction and chafing for more comfortable wear. Pair it with your favourite trainers for the perfect gym outfit and throw on an oversized sweatshirt for some added warmth while running errands.'
Other Lululemon dupes
It's not just this all-in-one that looks just like a Lululemon piece. These leggings from Amazon have been compared to the Lululemon Align leggings, but rather than costing over £80 a pair, they start at just £23.
And, if you've been lusting after the Lululemon longline 'Wunder' puffa jacket but can't quite stretch to the £239 it'll cost, then check out this version from River Island that's a steal at just £45.
