Fashion Activewear & Fashionable Workout Clothes — Time to Throw out those Holey Sweats

Luxe Gurl — Wed, 28 Mar 2007 03:26:04 +0000

I consider looking decently stylish at the gym to be both important to my self-image and helpful to getting the most out of my workout. I know you’re thinking… why should I care what I look like when I’m just going to throw my flab around and sweat out last night’s grease? Well for starters, there’s mirrors and eyes everywhere. When you look in the mirror and see a scary image staring back at you doesn’t it make it harder to run that extra mile? I feel like it’s enough to make me want to pack up my McNasty and head home! Even if you’ve got a few extra pounds to lose, a good fitting and well designed workout outfit can make you look sporty and ready to sweat it up while looking good. Wouldn’t that make it more fun at the gym? Better than showing up in an oversized tee and crusty sweats?? And please no over matchy-matchy workout gear. If you’re going to try work that that then your body better be slammin honey!!

Hopefully I’ve motivated at least a few of you to consider upgrading your gym clothes. Here are a few fitness clothing brands and sites to get you started on wardrobing your workout clothes… and hitting the gym everyday.
