Did You Know Cute Work Out Clothes Will Motivate You More?

According to Huffington Post having cute workout clothes is more likely to motivate you to get to the gym or to workout.  Really? You might recall my previous post about gym clothes 30 days of DIY workout clothes on a budget.

I have been walking/running since the start of the year when my youngest began school full time. I am yet to cave in and buy some overpriced workout clothes. Though I did see a great workout top the other day “Less Attitude and more gratitude” but it was more suited to my 7 year old. Don’t get me wrong I do have “workout” clothes. I have one fancy Walmart set that has a pocket for my iphone (plain black) and a loose top to cover up any wobbling bits as I try to run. This set was actually my “disguise”. When I put it on, along with one of my kids baseball hats I truly felt like I was running  walking incogintio and no one knew it was me. I even tucked my hair inside the hat and wore dark glasses.  That was until last week, the moment someone actually waved at me and said good morning. I sunk, I sunk into the concrete as if it was wet, my feet became heavy and I began gasping for unrecognisable air. My disguise was no longer.

Now when I run walk I am looking over my shoulder and watching every car as it passes. My walking mojo is gone and it IS because of my outfit/disguise.

Maybe it’s time to try a new look, something a little less me and a little more “other person walking down the street”.

So what do you think? Can cute workout clothes really make you want to exercise more?

I am not sure I can justify the expense of putting it to the test.

    Nope. Workout clothes are made for skinny women with perfect bodies. Getting my fat body into those lycra clothes would be difficult and would be a horrific sight. I wear baggy t-shirts and jogging bottoms (sweat pants in the US?) and don’t feel motivated at all to put them on!
