Workout Clothes Through the Years<\/h2>\r\nShorts, sweatpants, tee shirts, cardio accessories\u2026\r\n\r\nWhat should you wear to work out?\r\n

Autopsy of the favorite look of sportsmen<\/h3>\r\nSportswear is undoubtedly the favorite look of men in everyday life. Comfortable and practical, the image they convey is that of a dynamic and entrepreneurial man.\r\n\r\nBut what to wear in a gym where appearance and dress codes seem to be important.\r\n

The first gym locations<\/h3>\r\nThe first gym for individuals dates back to 1919 and people only went there to loosen up and do some exercises. Then, a military man had the idea to teach gymnastics.\r\n\r\nAt that time, sportswear was chic and not really comfortable.\r\n

The post-war period<\/h3>\r\nSportswear remained chic and not really practical. There were not many gyms to practice this discipline.\r\n\r\nTo exercise, men wore baggy pants, caps and white tennis shoes, which had just come onto the market.\r\n

The 60s and 70s<\/h3>\r\nIt\u2019s the change. Outfits became more casual and technical. Men shed their sweaters. The white tank top called Marcel finally comes out of the hombre and becomes an essential fashion accessory.\r\n\r\nIt is also the arrival of the tracksuit that we put on after his sports session.\r\n

The 80\u2019s<\/h3>\r\nWatching the cult show of the 80\u2019s by V\u00e9ronique and Davina, we can\u2019t help but notice the flashy outfits of our sportsmen of the time.\r\n\r\nShiny jogging, split shorts, tight leotards and low-cut tank tops<\/a> revealing part of the stomach. It\u2019s the electric rock period!\r\n

The 90\u2019s<\/h3>\r\nThe 80\u2019s are not far away, but the outfits are more streetwear and hip-hop. With sportswear, it\u2019s also a more chic version that comes with shorts, polo and sweatshirt. The teeshirts are graphic and colorful.\r\n\r\nAt this same period, the cap is fashionable for men and women.\r\n

The year 2000<\/h3>\r\nIn the fitness rooms, influenced by African fashion, tracksuits<\/a> and shorts are colorful and ethnic. They are worn loose.\r\n

Year 2010<\/h3>\r\nThe outfits and materials become more technical and important in the choice of clothing. But rap dominates, teeshirts are worn in XXL size and jogging suits are in peach skin. Shorts still have their place, but they are loose and long.\r\n

Nowadays\u2026<\/h3>\r\nWe are in the tight jogging, falling on the ankle, to ultra slim tank tops and always so many colors and style, the world of streetwear is more than ever trendy and fashionable.\r\n

How to choose your workout clothes?<\/h2>\r\nConnected leggings and tank tops? Technology and performance have become a priority in the choice of clothing. Of course, being trendy in the gym remains essential and the choice of brands is essential.\r\n\r\nPolyester jogging suits tightened at the ankle are the fashion piece of the moment for a successful entrance into the gym.\r\n\r\nShorts are short and T-shirts are simple, but close to the body in microfiber, to hide the marks of perspiration.\r\n\r\nWe also see leggings that offer muscle support and promote recovery<\/a> and sneakers are high-tech with cushioned soles and weight distribution. In 2019, we\u2019ve even seen the return of the men\u2019s crop top<\/a>!\r\n\r\nDespite the decades and fashions, one thing hasn\u2019t changed in the gym, \u201cthe sweat\u201d.\r\n\r\nSo gentlemen, whether you are nostalgic for the fluorescent leotard style and mullet hairstyle or you find this look tacky, remember that the absence of halos does not exempt you from washing your teeshirt after use.","link":"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/fitness\/clothing-accessories-bodybuilding\/","name":"Clothing and accessories for bodybuilding","slug":"clothing-accessories-bodybuilding","taxonomy":"category","parent":8,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/3565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/8"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=3565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
