Many of us went into a fitness frenzy during lockdown and some are ready to hit the gym again. Choosing the right outfit back then wasn’t a big deal but exercising in public can undoubtedly make you feel super conscious of how you look. It’s better to be prepared with comfy, breathable and trendy sportswear outfits…
Is your sportswear wardrobe ready for the great back to the gym? Explore these 5 workout outfit ideas to be ready to exercise in public.
Sportswear and back to the gym
Raise your hands if you spent hours on IG and Youtube sourcing your workout tutorials. Talking by experience, people didn’t need so much during lockdown apart from a fave instructor, youtuber or guru and some basic gears. My at-home workout look was pretty simple and many of you did the same: a comfy top or a tank top, leggings or sporty shorts (even PJ shorts). Pretty much anything was fine to keep moving and feel happily in shape.
5 trendy sportswear styles for the gym
Going back to the gym means that people will be around you and eyes may be on you too! Of course, a makeshift workout outfit isn’t enough for the gym. You still want something comfortable and breathable to feel confident and look at your top, and maybe something with a special design to enhance the result of your hard work. Here are 5 outfit inspos, available both as wholesale sportswear point and retailer, for your great back to the gym.
Total match top crop and leggings
For working out or yoga, this combo ensures a feeling of comfortability (the high-waist) and style (prints). It’s perfect if you want to have your shapes under control and have a 2D pattern that doesn’t overexpose your curves.
The 3-piece workout set
With a ready-made outfit with legging, crop top and hoodie or zipped jacket all matching in colour and style, you need nothing else to rock your workout session. You can opt for an ensemble with eye-catching front and back criss-cross work or a truly sporty set in grey and pink with technical fabric with compression panels.
The essential duo
For the smart essentialist, a Tee and a pair of leggings will go a long way. Choose between short sleeves or long sleeves with thumbholes depending on the season. Grey seems to be the classic colour for sportswear, so spice it up with washes of colour or details on the hem and back.
The classic yoga outfit
Yoga isn’t exercising as we live it in the Western world, it’s a holistic concept – your space in the universe. You don’t want too many frills while practising yoga. Opt for a simple top and your daily pair of leggings or an essential combo.
The keep-hidden skirt
Love open-air activities instead? Skirts are perfect for tennis and sports requiring freedom of movement. This sports double skirt is stylish and smart by keeping your bottom away from unwanted sights and having a flowing flared line.
Exercising doesn’t stop at the gym! You can keep practising at home and keep your silhouette under control with a neoprene waist trainer, for which the choice of style is equally varying.
As you can see, you can combine comfort, freshness, control and fashion while picking or mixing&matching your gym outfit.
