Finding the Perfect Workout Clothes

It’s summer! It’s time to bring out your favorite swimsuits and prepare for many hours in the beach, lounging under the sun and getting a tan. But if you’re just like any other woman on earth, you might have eaten a little more than planned – and it’s starting to show. Wearing a swim suit at this time will be like walking barefoot on the hot sand: uncomfortable and not at all sexy.

Going on a healthy weight loss scheme is the master plan. This involves eating a healthy balanced diet, skipping the sweets and going for fruits, eating more fiber and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), and exercising. Yes, exercise will definitely help you lose weight as it burns fat stores and gives you more muscle bulk, which burns calories faster even when you’re not exercising!

When you visit the gym for a workout, don’t forget to shop for the right outfit. Just because you expect to sweat doesn’t mean that you should dress lousy! Comfort is important, but there are many workout clothes that actually manage to flatter even when they provide you maximum movement and comfort. Try buying sweatpants that skim your curves instead of hugging them tightly. Look for a top that does not feel too constricting. Go for fabrics that offer maximum absorption and breathability. When shopping for sweatpants, look for dark colored pants. They tend to be more forgiving when it comes to unwanted bulges.

Some women feel that wearing gym clothes that make them look fat will motivate them to exercise harder. Doing this will only make you feel miserable about yourself, which is not what exercising is all about! Working out should be an enjoyable task so that you feel more motivated to visit the gym regularly. The more you enjoy your workout, the more you do it according to schedule – and if you’re wearing gym clothes that make you look hot, going to the gym is going to be one of the things you will look forward to. Soon enough, you will be wearing your bikini and strutting down the beach like you own it. :)

Like the picture above? You might want to wear cardigan sweaters over your gym wear when you’re headed your way to the gym – and you’ll look one degree hotter.
