Whether it's a yoga session, a Pilates class or a jog at the urban park,working out never goes on vacation. This is well known by all those people who do not stop practicing sports even when the temperatures get scorching hot.
The need to choose the right clothing for one's workout is higher than ever these days. We need to choose the right fabrics that are lightweight and breathable, but also looks that do not make us give up style, even during sports.
So here we have come up with a selection of sportswear for summer, to train in comfort and lightness, but without sacrificing style. Let's discover them together.
Summer sportswear: the must-haves
Cotton shorts and tank tops are, in all likelihood, the two clothing items that are never lacking for a sporty look to be worn during loosening up sessions. Yet they are not the only ones.
Regardless of the intensity of the workout, and the frequency of it, choosing the right sportswear for summer is crucial. Comfort, as well as practicality, are the cornerstones of this choice, however, we do not necessarily have to give up style.
Summer sportswear must be lightweight. Therefore, the choice of garments characterized by breathable fabrics is essential. But it must also be very practical and, therefore, facilitate movement and never constrict it.
As we anticipated, cotton shorts, tank tops and tops, are definitely the best of training sessions, but they are not the only ones. To these are added the practical leggings and looser pants, for those who want to feel completely comfortable while working out. Indeed, tight-fitting pants are not always a good choice, especially for those who practice yoga or pilates, for example.
As for the upper part, however, you can opt for half-sleeved T-shirts, short tops or tank tops. In the case of outdoor workouts, then, the advice is to always carry a sweatshirt, so you can cover yourself in case the temperature drops.
Loose or tight pants?
One of the questions we most ask ourselves, when we are about to choose sportswear for summer, is about the decision between baggy or tight pants. It actually depends a lot on one's personal needs and preferences, and also on the sports one plays.
If the workout is dynamic, for example, tight pants and leggings are definitely the best choice, while for yoga or pilates sessions, for example, you can also opt for fluid models that naturally follow the body's movements.
The length issue is also very subjective. There are people who do not want to give up uncovering themselves during training, especially during hot days, but there are also those who, on the other hand, feel much more comfortable opting for different solutions. The important thing, as we have already reiterated, is to choose fabrics suitable for the season, even better if the models are breathable and seamless.
As for colors, on the other hand, you are spoiled for choice. Black is always present in sportswear, even in summer, however you can also opt for garments distinguished by vibrant and lively patterns, or make a creative mix and match to make your workout sessions super stylish.
