The thought of putting oneself to hit the workout floor each day is quite a daunting and fatiguing experience for most of us. But we all need to give a quick reminder to ourselves, we workout to look good and be fit, then why not look our best during the workout as well? We are aware how a certain kind of music tempo sets up the mood and rush of adrenaline in our bodies. In a very similar way the colours and the clothes we wear equally contributes to set the mood for the workout routine.
Today we will talk about how one can look stylish while burning those calories and unwanted fat. So here’s your quick guide to looking absolutely fashionable from head to toe in the gym.
- HAIR
These are a few styles you can try out, these will not only make you look good but also be very comfortable during the workout.

- French Braid
- High Pony tail
- Bunched ponytail
These up-do’s can further be accessorized with fun headbands, rubber bands and clips of different styles and colours to add on to the fun. Below are the links of some fun hair accessories you could shop for
- MAKEUP
It is advisable to have a naked/bare skin when you go for workouts because it makes the pores of your skin breathe better. Also, makeup during workouts could make you feel slightly uncomfortable and messy since workouts make you sweat. So a-no-makeup face would just do fine. You could probably apply an eyeliner/Kajal or lip-gloss if you are a huge fan of using makeup and would not want to leave your doorstep without it. But you want to make sure that the eyeliner/Kajal is waterproof because it could smudge with the sweaty skin.
Here are a few links for water proof eyeliners/ Kajal you could shop for:
- CLOTHES
Most of us follow the rule of dressing according to our respective body type, but this rule is mostly not applied while we dress up for the gym. It is very paramount to choose your clothes wisely, a top that does not suit your body type might make you look bulkier than you are and this in turn might cause de-motivation.
- If you are bigger on the bottom – Wear long, lean pants and a form-fitting tank shirt that comes to about mid-hip.
- Those who are larger around the waist area should wear tight-fitting pants and a looser shirt.
- Those who are bigger in the chest could wear shirts that fall closer to the neckline.
- V-necks and scoop-necked shirts tend to be flattering on all people, regardless of body type, they draw attention up to the face
- And like everywhere else even at the gym, wearing head-to-toe black is an easy way for anyone to look slimmer.
COLOURS AND PRINTS:
After you have chosen the silhouette for your body type comes the decision making in terms of colours and prints. You can go all black, or chose pop colours like pinks, greens, blues to name a few. You can go crazy with the prints- floral, tropical or also graphical art on the clothes. Make sure to wear a solid colour for the top if the bottoms are printed and visa-versa.
- FOOTWEAR
It is very essential to choose footwear precisely. Go in for sports shoes that has a good grip and which are comfortable for you. Negligence in choosing the right one may sometimes cause knee and other joint problems. To keep your sports gear stylish you can buy footwear of a funky or pop colour or even printed ones and match them with some solid/pop/printed socks depending on the design of footwear you have chosen. Brands like Nike and Reebok have a huge collection to offer to you.
