Home: Fashions for the Weight Lifter and Body BuilderActually before we get into high fashion for the weightlifter. Lets take a look at the more practical side and talk a little bit about the clothes you need to wear while working out. Now if you're a guy like me and basically work out at home you probably are just in any old sweatshirt with the sleeves ripped off, and a pair of shorts. But in the gym you may want something a little more stylish like a form fitting Y-back Tank Top. Couple that with a pair of baggy workout pants like the O500 Red Dragons from Otomix, and you'll be stylin' Of course women want to look their best wherever they are and for them weightlifting fashion is designed to make them true "bar belles" with everything form sports bras with matching head and wrist bands, to gym bags with accessorized towels and key chains. On the practical side both men and woman should consider wearing fitness or specially designed workout shoes during weightlifting. These improve balance and stability while lifting, but are also designed to be lightweight enough to be used for cardio before weightlifting sets. And many of them also look damn good. Now to the other side. You've worked for it you've got it - flaunt it. There are complete lines of fashion wear made specifically for active physically fit guys and gals. Usually called "club wear" look for a lot of spandex and use of other materials specifically used to fit the athletic body. One company in particularly called Hot Bodz Clothing offers a complete such line for weightlifters and body builders. Their fashions include not only the aforementioned club wear, but also contemporary fashions specifically tailored to better fit the muscular physique. Form fitting club shirts in a variety of colors and patterns, look as good elbowing up to any che che bar as they do just walking along South Beach. There are also denim and leather jackets cut specifically for the weightlifter to make you look your best day or night. There are even dress shirts made of a fabric called stretch poplin that can make you look as good in the boardroom as the weightroom. So whether working out or hanging out as a weightlifter or bodybuilder there are clothes that have been designed to make you look your best.
