Hi Well I just joined a gym and went to my first exercise class on Sunday. I was just wondering where you get your exercise clothes from? I really like luluemon but find them expensive especially when still losing weight. I find old navy activte line doesnt look great on your butt. Any suggestions would be helpful.

    Under Armour all the way.

    I tried LuluLemon and to be honest, it's really expensive and nothing special compared to UA. I think it's just more ''stylish'' although I love what my UA gear and accessories look like.

    Modells (fitness sports store)
    sports authority
    marshalls (have all name brands)
    olympia sports.

    I get Nike (Dri-Fit)
    Under Armour (Heatgear or Cold Gear)
    Adidas
    Champion

    Sweat wicking, and all clothing that keeps your muscles relaxed!

    The North Face (yes, can be expensive, but I work there so I get a 50% discount) or Target.

    When in the US on holiday (Florida) I've bought a lot in TJ Max and Target.

    In the UK and Europe I love Decathlon. They sell everything you can imagine that's sports or outdoor related and their kit is well made and washed s and wears well. And it's cheap too!!

    Under Armour is what I prefer, but I found stuff that was cheaper and very similar to it at Academy Sports. I also buy some at Walmart.

    No where too expensive as I am losing weight. I'm in the UK so H&M, TK Maxx ( esp for Nike), Sainsbury's and Next online.

    Usually JC Penny and TJ Maxx. I hate spending too much on workout gear since i am now in my third size of clothes. Both can have great clearance sales.

    Old Navy (basic yoga pants), Lulu (expensive yes, but I wear their pants all the time so it's worth it to me), Target (sports bras mostly), Nike (whatever I can get from the outlet), and I'm just now looking into Athleta (Gap affiliate). I have had luck at TJ Maxx too. It just depends on what you're looking for and what you're willing to spend. If I only worked out 1 day a week I couldn't justify an $80 pair of leggings.

    ETA: I'm not at goal and I still spent a lot at Lulu..

    JCPenny's all the way. I love their Xersion line. I have a full chest (34DD) and usually can't find shelf-bra tops that work for me especially for exercising. Xersion are the exception to the rule, and I have 5 of them.

    I get mine from Costco. I just can't justify paying a lot of $$ for something to sweat in :P. I have been known to cut old track pants and wear them as shorts ;). I really like the tuff athletics brand yoga pants, they even have ones with an inseam size (I am almost 6 feet tall and I have problem getting pants long enough). They last too, I have a pair that is over 5 years old and still look and feel like new. I also just get cheap shirts from Walmart that have funny characters on them. I have gotten a lot of comments on my Elmo and Bam-Bam shirts ;). I do like the Under Armour stuff as well but it is expensive. I picked up a nice shirt in the US at an outlet mall once and use it quite a bit when I need something longer for body flow. Love their compression shorts as well.

    Indeed, Decathlon in Europe...
    Wide choice, and Price vs Quality you can't beat them.

    You can find a lot of discounted brand name workout clothes at Winners and Marshall's. I got some Nike running leggings for $34!

    Target or Marshall's (all brands). I refuse to spend a PT of money on something I sweat in.

    My running shoes I get at a running store. That's a whole different ball game.

    I either get mine from Sports Direct, there is a SD store about five miles from where I live, or I order off Amazon. My shoes I get from Runner-Edge specialist running shop.

    I got my new yoga pants and shorts from Lane Bryant online. I have gotten pants at Walmart before but they never last very long and usually don't fit very well. The shirts are kind of low quality too. I get shirts from KMart online. Not a lot better but they seem to be better quality than the walmart variety.

    Marshall's, Ross, or CostCo - can't stand the thought of paying full price.

    Xersion from JCPenney. They have regular sizes and plus sizes and they are almost always on sale! I love their quick-dri shirts. That's the only shirt I'll run in.
