Leggings on days that I lift. Shorts on treadmill days. A tank top and zip up on all days. I take the zip off once I am warm.

T shirt and leggings or shorts. Nothing “cute”, just functional and comfortable for me.

Lulu leggings + fitted tank top. Both are swear wicking. Tank top ensures my core stays cooler. Prefer leggings to shorts.

I prefer joggers to leggings for most workouts. For some activities I wear compression bike shorts underneath and take off the joggers if it's too hot. I like athleta brand joggers. Did not like the popular vuori ones as much (too flimsy). Also have old navy joggers. I like their leggings but the joggers are not as breathable as athleta

Capri knit pants and tank top. Yoga capris and tank top. I can't wear leggings...they look really bad on my bird-like legs.

Truthfully, Op...just wear something stretchy that fits appropriately and feels good. Nobody cares.

Im amazed at the number of women who can exercise in leggings! How do you not get so hot? The only time I can exercise in leggings is when I run outside in the cold!

Leggings and a short sleeve wicking t shirt or slightly relaxed tank top. Nothing loose enough that will fall over my waist when I bend over.

Old navy leggings but mine are a few years old and I don’t like the fabric on the current ones they’re selling.

capri length leggings and a tank top. Tank is not tight but also not supper loose.

I am not thin, but i overheat so can't stand anything other than a tank when exercising.

I am no prude, but I do think the gym is for getting down to business and good hygiene and public health practices should be observed. It used to be that you had to cover your shoulders and stomach in the gym. Now, apparently, you can workout in your bikini. I don't know about you, but I don't want to sit on a bench after a woman in booty shorts has been on it, no matter if she sprayed it or not. That's nasty af.

High waisted workout leggings to offer some tummy support (I like Lulu and Aerie). And then usually a tank. Lately I’ve been into the someone crop tanks because I find them flattering without being too tight and with the leggings they don’t really show skin.

I have a bunch like this. FWIW I’m a 40 y/o mom, but still fairly petite.

I’m in my mid-40s and have always worked out so at this point, what I wear depends on what I’m doing that day. If I’m doing weights, I wear a fitted tank top and capris. I don’t like to wear shorts when I do weights bc I don’t like my skin touching the bench, and leggings are too hot. I do put a towel under me when I lie down on the bench bc I have a tank on. Sleeved tops also obstruct the view of my form and I generally find them too hot and they move arnd too much.

When I do dance and yoga classes, I wear a tank and capris as well.

Spin class is tank or just sports bra and bike shorts. Too hot to wear anything else.

When I run, I wear a sports bra and running shorts. It’s just too hot to wear anything else.

Leggings in various colors, in the summer I wear a sports bra under a workout tank. In winter, a sports bra under a zip-up jacket or workout pullover. I’m 40.

You're nasty, as in mean. Also misogynist, and likely a prude.

What, exactly, do you think is gonna happen to you?
