Working out has to be something you enjoy to truly be beneficial because you won’t stick to it if it isn’t. Believe it or not how you look and what you are wearing will play a huge role in whether or not you enjoy your workout sessions.
Ok, we know motivation is a key but how do clothes rev up your workouts?
Baggy sweatpants and the old cotton T just won’t cut it. Not only are they a drag-me-down, but they are actually bad for your body altogether. You need something to separate you from the sweat, and the right workout clothes are great for doing just that.
Just because it says fitness wear doesn’t mean that it is. Fitness fashionistas are easily confused, and the trick is really simple; buy all of your fitness wear according to your body type!
