Fashion

I work out exclusively at home. I'm big into the Beach Body programs on DVD. When I'm doing a millions jumps and burpees all I care about is that the clothes are keeping me firmly in place and nothing is riding up/out or shifting about.

I don't look ridiculous, but the workout wear is about performance over look since nobody sees me but potentially the DH.

Comfort- Can't stand women who go to the gym and are concerned about their appearance- SOOO vain & silly!

Not sure wanting to look pulled together at the gym equates with being vain and silly.

I don't think anyone cares. I only try to look nice at the gym because I'm single. Of course, I tend to (silently) laugh at women who are too put together at the gym.

I don't go to the gym, but I walk several nights a week on a nearby trail with my neighbor. My usual outfit consists of black cropped yoga pants and a C9 V-neck T-shirt in one of the five colors I own.

I am hardly a fashionista in this type of outfit, but I don't look sloppy, either. Just basic workout wear, and that's fine with me.

Yes, I care that I'm presentable and neat and clean, and not sloppy looking like some women in my gym look. I'm not saying that you have to be a gym fashionista like some, but come on look decent.

I wear color coordinated gym shorts and tee shirts. I always sweat like a pig so I have no plans to stop at the grocery or run errands after working out. I go straight home and shower. I do not spend big bucks on work out clothes. I guess this makes me a slob by some standards but at least I'm comfy.

At home aloneI could care less....but if someone is going to see me I do care.

[Rock_chick]

Yes and no. I don't like to look awful but I don't really care. I get hot and sweaty and parts of me bounce around because I do a pretty intense interval type workout. The cool thing is that my friends at boot camp are usually the first to comment on weight loss.

When I go to the gym my priority is the workout & I wear appropriate clothes (and bra!) for that. I don't dress to look fashionable though I don't go looking like a slob either.

I really don't notice what other people wear or look like at the gym. I go for my workout. I think most people who workout seriously at gyms (or anywhere) regularly are of the same mind.

[HULAGIRL]

Yes, I dress appropriately. I feel better when I know I look the best I can look. I don't care if anyone else notices or not, I notice and that's what matters. It doesn't take me any longer to put on something decent than it does to throw on any old thing. I don't spend a fortune on my exercise clothes, but I do make sure they're clean and somewhat coordinated. I hate seeing people in clothes that look like they haven't been washed in a month (and they probably haven't)......
