Find the right wardrobe for your workouts. In addition to coming to class with a ton of energy and a good attitude, it\u2019s important to make sure you\u2019re dressed for the occasion. Whether that\u2019s cardio kickboxing or a 30-minute bootcamp.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to dress for any workout<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Showing up without the right gear won\u2019t only leave you uncomfortable, but you also might have to sit out on certain exercises (and who wants to do that?). <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a breakdown of the basics of what to wear for every type of workout so you can feel prepared. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for Running<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Runners have the added challenge of dressing for very specific types of weather, which sometimes might be upwards of 90 degrees and downwards of 10 (but, hey, who\u2019s counting?). You\u2019ll want to go with lightweight, breathable fabrics that are sweat-wicking\u2014shorts and a tank in the summer and warm running tights and long-sleeve shirts in the winter. Often these materials are synthetic and not natural, like cotton, which helps hold in heat instead of evaporating it. For shoes, you\u2019ll want to score a pair made specifically for running, since these are specifically designed to help maximize your performance and prevent injury. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for Cardio Dance<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve never signed up for a cardio dance party, you might expect your clothing decisions not to matter that much, but this couldn\u2019t be farther from the truth. This is an exercise where leggings really come in handy (a high kick with a peep show is possible otherwise). You\u2019ll want to select fitted, elastic materials that allow you to move freely. Women should choose a comfortable sports bra that holds everything in nicely, as you can expect quite a lot of jumping up and down. Any exercise shoe should do, though make sure yours offers you the stability you\u2019ll need to stop in place and start moving again instantly. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for Weight Training<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The most important consideration when dressing for weight training of any kind is your shoes\u2014you\u2019ll need as much stability as possible and enough flexibility to fully allow you to go through all of the movements required. Look for a flat-soled sneaker designed with weight training in mind. For clothing, opt for items that help you break a sweat (warm up your muscles instead of leaving them too cool and exposed to air). You want your blood to get moving to provide circulation to all of the muscles in your body. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for HIIT<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

HIIT classes require lots of movement, both high-intensity and low-intensity, so you\u2019ll want to select an outfit that allows you to transition between both. You\u2019ll likely get very sweaty in this type of class, so opt for breathable fabrics that are towards the baggier side (anything that clings too closely to your skin might be uncomfortable). The same goes for your choice of bottoms\u2014reach for something that\u2019s made of a stretchy material that sits high on your waist so you won\u2019t have to keep pulling them up mid-burpee. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for Boxing<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re selecting an outfit to wear to your boxing class, you want to avoid choosing anything that\u2019s too loose and can get in your way mid-punch. You can expect to sweat a ton too, so the ideal attire is something cool, breathable and sweat-wicking. Like in HIIT, you can expect to do a wide variety of movements, from burpees to jumping rope, so you\u2019ll want to select a pair of leggings that won\u2019t slide down as you reach the floor. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for Cycling<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re someone who loves a good spin class, the best thing you can do is prepare with the right clothing to make your workout easier and more enjoyable. First thing first: Get yourself a pair of sweat-wicking leggings, because all that movement will undoubtedly have your quads and calves warmed up to the max. Cycling shoes are a must, as they give you the best support on the bike and lock into place without hassle. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best for Yoga<\/a>\/Pilates<\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both yoga and pilates require a lot of mat movement, so you\u2019ll want to make sure your clothing choices stay close to your body instead of loose. Leggings, both cropped or full-length, are best, especially in case the room gets drafty. Tight-fitted shirts can be ideal for these workouts, since you will likely find yourself in upside-down positions where you\u2019ll need both hands on the mat instead of holding your shirt upright. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
