Do you love shopping for workout clothes just as much as regular clothes? Well I do! Thanks to my girl Toya! I have this prompt for you as I welcome myself back to blogging! HEY YALL!!! Missed this space! Lot’s of life changes, updates to come! For now, we are talking workout gear!
First of all, I’d just like to say it has been my experience that you get what you pay for.
I know people have different workouts that require specialty gear and thusly your opinions may be different for a number of reasons. This is just my opinion based on Les Mills classes (any group fitness classes) and boot camp workouts.
Disclaimer – I am not one of those fancy ladies at the gym with matching everything from socks to bows, ok 😉 !
Academy Sports + Outdoors – Your local store has very affordable QUALITY workout gear and has a number of name brands for you fitness brand junkies 🙂 ! They have equipment, clothes, and shoes for pretty much everything. Their brand of workout clothes is not bad either in my opinion. I have quite a few pieces in my wardrobe.
***This has by far been my go to for the majority of my workout clothes.***
Victoria’s Secret Sport – PRICEY!!! Top quality & usually really cute! You can browse through their site to get an idea of the style.
Dick’s Sporting Goods – This place has TOP QUALITY hands down but you best believe you will pay for it. It is another place that has everything for every sport.
Title MMA – Mixed Martial Arts equipment, Training Gear, & Supplies – My absolute favorite shirt to workout in came from here and I have a few other pieces I love from there to teach BODYCOMBAT in. These prices are very reasonable & the site is easy to navigate.
Hibbett Sports – I don’t shop here but little sister insisted I include this place because they have quality and good sales.
Some less expensive options (in my opinion)….
My favorite Under Armour outlets (any of the big name outlets, this is just my personal favorite)!
Target
Marshall’s
TJ Max
Ross Dress for Less
Burlington Coat Factory
Walmart – I only get festive tees for holidays here. I like to teach in the spirit!
SHOES – Lady Foot Locker – This was traditionally my store of choice for shoes, then I discovered that Dillard’s department store was selling Nikes. They regularly put my favorite kind on clearance so they are my new go to!
New To Me…
Fabletics – I did an entire post on this new company! I thoroughly have been enjoying my first outfit from there.
One final piece of advice; don’t just buy those “too good to be true” tops and pants that are SUPER inexpensive. They usually roll up or do something stupid!
Quality is the key!
Yours in Healthy, Active, & Prosperous Lifestyles,

Welcome back!!! I hope you are doing awesome!!!
I’m a big Target fan for basic workout gear and Dicks Sporting Goods for the rest. My shoes I’m a little picky about and if I can’t find what I want then I order them.
So happy to see you this morning!!!

Joi! Joi! Joi! I missed you my friend. So glad you are back. Can’t wait to hear about what’s been going on with you. Academy Sports is my place for any athletic gear. Also have great swim suits. Just bought Deuce a helmet, some kneepads, and elbowpads for skateboarding there. And they also sell his school uniforms.
Come stop by my September Sapphire Even Day Blog Challenge! Yes, it’s already been a year.

While many people want to look good while they exercise, your workout clothes should be less about fashion and more about comfort and fit. What you wear can impact the success of your workout. Some forms of exercise, such as biking and swimming, will require specific pieces of clothing. For general workouts, it is best to wear something that fits well and keeps you cool. Choose the right workout clothes by considering fabric, fit and comfort.
Glad to see you back! I don’t have many pieces but the ones I have are something I found at Target and Underarmour.

Well you know me Joi…I don’t buy workout clothes, BUT on the rare occasion that I do…Academy Sports is definitely my store, as I go there for almost everything dealing with outdoors, picnics, etc. And their men’s t-shirts are always a steal!
