Designer-style leggings

"These leggings look like they came from a high-end boutique, but they cost just $20 at Walmart," Powell told "Good Morning America." "They're buttery soft, stretchy, squat-proof and built for comfort, whether you're working out or running errands. The fabric moves with your body and never rides down or bunches up. Plus, the side pockets are perfect for holding your phone, keys or a protein bar."

Nike trainers

"Footwear matters, and these Nike trainers deliver top-tier comfort for a fraction of the price," said Powell. "Pro tip: DSW clearance sections are loaded with hidden name-brand gems like these. I snagged these on clearance at DSW for just under $60 -- they're light, breathable, and versatile for walking, cardio or strength work. The arch support and cushioning make them great for everyday wear, not just the gym. Summer clearance sales are where it's at!"

It's perfect for anyone starting their wellness journey or wanting to stay accountable on a budget. You get core tracking features at a price that's actually sustainable long-term."

Whether you're doing yoga, core work or a quick stretch session, it gives you a comfortable and consistent surface to work on. It also rolls up easily, making it simple to store or take with you on the go."
