I think this topic is interesting epecially for the ladies! Most of the ladies favorite things to do during leasure is shopping! Like me, I’m like being born to shop!
Not everybody have lotsa money to spend on and burning a hole in the pocket and that includes me! So, we must learn to spend wisely. A great value for our money. Yeah, that is right! So, lemme spare you with some shopping tips for sportswear. I am a shopaholic up until my husband has to come in and manage my money.
Now, I always go out and window shopping only. Hopping from one mall to another just to find the right choice of gears at the best deal in town because my husband a.k.a my account manager wouldn’t let me waste money on something expensive. He will always say ” Why spend more when you could settle for the same thing at a much much more cheaper price. ” and bla bla bla…. So with a very tight budget, I learned how to get the best, where to get the best and most importantly what is the best.
There are two important criteria which you have to look out for when choosing your sport attires.
- Comfort
- Moisture management
Well, my criteria would also include fashion and style … LOL… as well as affordableprice. Clothing should be comfortable and well tailored so that it won’t flap. Wear something you feel comfortable. Always try your gears before you buy them. You must make sure you are very very comfortable for you gonna be running and exercising in that particular gear you just bought. If you buy something too tight, you might need to limit your movement. If not, you will end up being like these people.
For moisture management, choose a fabric such as Nike’s Dri-FIT which ’swoosh’ sweat away from your body so it can evaporate, thus keeping you dry. Other wicking fabrics include Reebok Playdry or Adidas CoolMax.
If you sweat heavily like me ( they called me ‘ the oasis’ ) … seek out a sportswear containing a fab new antibacterial fibre called X-STATIC. It contains pure silver which kills 99.9% of odour caused by bacteria from your sweat. X-STATIC also draws sweat and is thermo-regulating. So it will keep you warm during winter and cool in the summer.
Other than that, slip into something comfortable like Lycra! The upper body you can use oversized shirt ( well, not too oversized cause it makes you look even bigger ) just fit to cover that lumpy you have until you have a nice sleek slender body.
You know you have to be confident and to be happy in in you outfit too. I believe if you choose attracive vibrant color, it will enlighten your mood and you will have a better workout.
So far, my favorite gears most of it comes from Nike. They are comfortable, Dri-Fit and stylish. I love Nike products! Plus they always have sale and my friend have a shop and she always update me with the stock clearance. Hey, if anybody looking for any Nike stuff, just text me. I’ll try my best to hook ya’ all up with best deal in town.
Asics trainers and tight are good too especially that Inner Muscle Training Tight which increase the muscle strength by 80%. How that happen?? It’s a wacky world but the theory is that this tight helps to work the targetted muscle for you, improve your posture and improve your efficiency when you move. 70% of people who wear this claims that.
I bought some of Reebok products, and I think they are pretty good too. I always get their sportsbras because they are cheap and they give almost the same kind of support that you get from Nike.
I’m not anti-Adidas, but I bought a few stuff which I totally regret from them. I bought a sportsbra which I regret until today because I feel it does not worth my penny. Didn’t support my rack at all..duh! Then I bought a black and white gym bag but the quality is not there. The scrathes appears immediatelyafter a day. Unlike Nike, it is tough! The trainer also not good when I ran in winter. Plus the design are boring. I dont know but that is my honest opinion. For those Adidas lovers, don’t get offended.
Alrite maite, I will talk about what is a must have in the next post. I guess that’s for today.
