Working out is the only way to get the sexy athletic look you've always wanted. When you decide it's time to hit the treadmill, be sure you're dressed for the part. The choice of gym wear is essential if you want to feel and look great while sweating. You can easily choose the wrong fabrics and types of clothes if you haven't worked out ever or for a long time, so check out the following tips to be sure you're on your A-game even at the gym.
Wear figure-flattering clothes
Loose-fitting shirts such as tees and tighter athletic wear are the most acceptable tops for women who are determined to start their gym journey. Wearing a track jacket over an inner tee or tank top can be a good way to layer your wardrobe and feel both comfortable and ready to pump the iron. When it comes to bottoms, feel free to wear anything from sweats to yoga pants, tights, or athletic shorts. They are all acceptable, it's just a matter of comfort. Go for the one that makes you feel like you're not wearing gym wear at all.
Pick a well-fitted sports bra
A well-fitted sports bra is essential at the gym because you’ll need an undergarment that will offer good support to your bust. With all the jumping, running, stretching and lifting, you’ll need to have your chest well-secured and in place. Wearing the wrong bra size can cause an array of problems, such as back, neck and breast pain and poor posture. Additionally, it can affect the appearance of your breasts so be sure you’ve got the right size and fit.
Comfortable and functional sneakers are a must
Regardless of the type of workout, you're engaged in, you'll need a pair of sneakers that will allow you to work your heart out without getting injured. This is especially true for those who've chosen tennis as their main recreational activity because only with a pair of comfortable tennis shoes will you be sure to stay injury free and ready to take on the workouts like a pro. Invest in a pair that has good ankle support and to prevent twists and serious falls.
Pick up your hair
Picking up your hair is another important factor that can affect your workouts. The last thing you need is your hair loose and making you warmer than you already are. Not only can loose hair impede your vision and become annoying, but it can look untidy as well. Not to mention you can seriously injure yourself if the hair gets stuck in some of the workout machines. Always have a scrunchy with you and tie the hair in a ponytail or a messy bun.
Lose the makeup
When you’re working out, you’re not supposed to look like you’re headed to the red carpet. Therefore, remove all the makeup before starting to workout, and allow your skin to breathe. If sweat mixes up with foundation, loose powder or whatever makeup product you’ve put on your face, not only will it cause the makeup to run, giving it a smudged, messy appearance, but it’ll wreak havoc on your skin too. Keep baby wipes in your gym bag to freshen up your face after the workout and a towel to wash up. After you come home, feel free to clean the face thoroughly and pamper yourself with a mask, but while you’re working out, your face should be makeup free.
Working out should be a fun, exciting experience so make sure you’re always comfortable. To look your best, opt for form-fitting clothes and a supportive bra. Invest in a comfortable pair of tennis shoes, don’t wear any makeup and always tie your hair up to have an effective and fuss-free workout.
