On Thursday, July 24, Pink & Black hosted another #PABgirltalk with an even greater turnout than the week before.
This time we discussed fitness since it relates to July’s theme–Healthy You. We asked our readers about fitness, how they achieve it and some of the common misconceptions they see.
Below are some of our favorite responses.Want to join #PABgirltalk? Tune in Thursday, July 31 at 8 p.m. EST for a discussion over mental wellness. See you online!

A1: I'm not fit by any means but I workout at home and like to run when I can. Working out is a huge stress reliever too! #PABgirltalk

@PinkandBlackMag Compression crops from UA are my favorite, along with sports bras from Nike #PABgirltalk
