Any suggestions on good work out gear?



Recommended Posts

I hope this isn't a repeat from any previous posts but I'm wondering if anyone has found any decent work out gear that would help out with excess skin or just hanging parts? Or to be blunt would help avoid some of the flopping around! I feel like it makes my work outs a lot more uncomfortable wearing super loose clothes but before I spend the money to buy something different I figured I would ask. I just started the beachbody T25 exercise program and there is a lot of jumping involved. Thanks for any advice!!!

I like the Old Navy compression shorts and capris. They keep your jiggly bits super tight, even when running. They are reasonably priced and have sales quite often.

I wear yoga pants and a t shirt. But it's best to wear what ever is most comfortable for you. When you go to the gym you see all sorts of gym wear, but my best advise is what's comfy for you will work best for you!

I like the gear at JC Penny, ditto on tight fitting capri/yoga pants, I usually wear a sports tank with a built in bra, I need the extra support from the regular bra + built in bra. I do prefer pants that come up higher to hold the belly roll in, but they are harder to come by.

I like the workout gear at both JCPenney and Old Navy, but my most important item is my bra: Bali Comfort Revolution Smart Sizes Shaping Wirefree Bra. It's so comfortable yet holds everything where it should. I usually put a regular sports bra on over it for extra support and moisture control when outdoors. I get the "shaping" one with foam cups to give the extra support.

Those jiggly bits need all the help they can get. :lol:

I wear under shirts from academy sports and outdoors. They keep everything nice and snug for all my workouts.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
