When I first made the decision to get off of my lazy butt and join a gym I was at the point where I could not care less about what I looked like. I mean I was just going to the building to sweat around other people who are sweating, so who cared if I matched or if my pants had a strange stain on them? I did not care one bit about how my clothes fit or anything. After about six months my body transformed like I could not believe. I was so excited with how I looked under my clothes, but it was then I realized how awful I looked with my so-called “gym clothes” on.
Here’s the deal, what you wear is important no matter the occasion. I should have been the first to realize this, but I was so caught up in trying to change who I was that I did not see it. Gym clothes do not have to be old nasty tee shirts and grungy looking sweats or yoga pants. No, gym clothes should look clean and nice on you. I knew that I had to go out and get some actual gym clothes, and it was the best decision I have ever made for me and my body. I looked two places for gym clothes: the mall and on TV. Yes, on TV! If you haven’t shopped QVC or HSN lately, I highly recommend you check your dish network Madison line up and find which channel they are on. I have received some AMAZING work out clothes at AMAZING prices.
When I got new running shorts, sweat wicking tops, and new socks and shoes, I got more than new clothes. I had a new attitude, more motivation, and I felt more comfortable than ever before at the gym.
New gym clothes mad me feel empowered. I loved how great I looked in my new gear and that translated outside of the gym as well. Yeah, I work out, and it shows.
On top of feeling better about myself, I realized that these new gym clothes were a great motivator to keep me going and moving. I wanted to get into the gym and sweat. There was nothing more exciting for me than to throw on the new gear and hit the gym.
So with a new attitude and new motivation I was working out harder than ever before. But there was one more thing my workout fashion provided me with, pure comfort. I had never had clothing designed to keep me cool and comfortable while I was sweating like a mad man. Wow, does it make a difference though.
To you all I say, care about how you look, even when working out. You might find that you were missing out all along.
