To feel good is to look good, and to look good you have to have style and grace. Think about it, when you go out to Sunday brunch you pick the perfect outfit to set your mood, or when you go on that first dinner date, you can never go wrong with a little sexy black dress to project the classy lady you  are.

So it makes sense to dress to impress when entering the gym, it gives you confidence and positive energy to come in and kill each session. When I first started back in the gym a few years ago I remember I wore ill-fitting sweatpants, a baggy t-shirt, and just some regular tennis shoes I’ve had for a while, just looking a mess. Grant it, mentality, I was not in a good place around this time, not many people know, but I was drained, lost my job a year before, and was working odd jobs so that I can stay afloat. I didn’t feel good about myself or how I looked. 

Then, as I began to go to the gym more often, my confidence went up, I felt better about myself so it was time to change up my fashion choices. The first time after about two weeks I came back to my small home gym in D.C, and I  wore a racerback tank top and some sweatpants but a better fit. It was a shock factor to gym partners because who would have known that genetically I wake up with a six-pack and my arms are not fragile sticks, even though I’m a slim lady, the baggy clothes hid all that.  As time progressed, so did my appearance, mental, and physical health. I wanted to be in the gym just so I could see the gains when I looked in the mirror and to see the results of all the hard work I’ve put in over the months. 

Starting with anything new or returning to something can be intimidating but it’s worth the trial and error of getting back to your better self. Especially during this Covid season, I’m sure everyone can use a mental and physical reset, so if you haven’t already, head over to BeautyInBeastMode to look at some stylish fitness apparel, coaching, and other gym accessories available for shipping.
