    Some 60ish year old guy drove up in his mercedes convertible wearing what looked like swim trunks (my gym doesn't have a pool) and an Abercrombie and Fitch t shirt. He changed into short running shorts and a tucked in sleeveless neon green shirt. I couldn't help but crack up when I saw him.

    I've seen people work out in jeans and polos. I mean how the ***k can that be comfortable? I'd rather not workout than workout in that attire.

    One of my favourite shirts (that I'm going to 'undergrow' out of soon sadly) says "Wonder woman on her day off"

    I haven't noticed many at my gym, but I had a good laugh at myself in my Krav Maga class. We were doing some kind of leg exercise (on you back with your legs in the air) and my pants slipped down to about mid-calf, revealing my mismatched, colorful socks! I had a tan on with kitties and a blue one with puppies. The best part was the teacher came to show me something and held my ankles for a moment then stopped, took a long hard look at my socks and started laughing. I'd be embarrassed but I was laughing too! I hate matching socks!

    So not the weirdest workout attire, but still funny!

    I think the best was a guy at my gym that wore his boxer shorts as workout shorts.. complete with shirt tucked in.


    My stomach hurts at the thought..was he at least packing or was it pleasant to see if not oh my poor sister having to see that.

    I never saw anything.. Thank goodness! I always wondered what would happen if he was working out, and suddenly something started poking out..

    Half the personal trainers at our gym wanted to collect a fund to buy the guy some actual shorts because they were just as creeped out as we were!

    I once saw a frail old woman walking along in her floral grandma-style calf-length sundress and woven hat, with a pair of runners. Then, i kid you not, she suddenly bolted off down the path! My hero. Grandma don't care, she just wants to get her HIIT session in. That, or she was escaping from the nearby nursing home.

    I was looking online to buy a sweatband one day and I came across this bad-boy http://www.sweatgutr.com/ This will be the funniest thing I could see anywhere let alone the gym

    Do people actually buy stuff like that? I think it would work perfectly, assuming you always sweat in exactly the right spot to hit the "gutter".

    So do you wear a sweatband, or do you ponytail all that hair?

    There's a guy at my gym I see some morning in his FedEx uniform - the polo, long shorts, and black boots.

    There was another guy in a hoodie, Carharts, and work boots.

    Mismatched socks are awesome and so are bright colors =]

    Yesterday there was a guy in adidas sandals and ripped jeans. I felt like he was really heading to the store and accidentally wandered into the gym.

    I wear crazy bright colors while working out beauase it makes me happy. I have an angry bird shirt that proclaims I am to busy being epic, a super girl t-shirt, and a green M&M t-shirt. I am sure that some people think I am odd.

    I wear my Vibram five-finger shoes everywhere because they are so much more comfortable than any of my other shoes.

    Say what you want.

    I don't care.

    :bigsmile:

    I work out in my toe shoes too :bigsmile: Mine are Filas though, I really want to try Vibrams though.

    I probably look weird at the gym. I go to the gym after work, in my scrubs lol. I WALK to work a mile and then I walk to the gym so I try to carry as little as possible. I try to remember my tennis shoes on cardio days, because the cross trainer hurts my feet if I wear my toe shoes but normally there I am on the weight machines in my gray and black scrubs and red and black toe shoes lol. I need to start taking workout clothes bc at times my scrubs are quite uncomfortable :ohwell:

    At my old gym there was a guy, about 30 years old, who always wore nice jeans and Doc Martens when lifting.

    I'm a ZUMBA fitness instructor and by no means are our clothes not 'out there'. All bright colored and I've worn the samba pants (which have long tassles on them) I've gotten many of stares working with the free weights before teaching a class and even on the treadmil afterwards.

    I like the sweat band, it totally reminds me of Richard Simmons, but I was always perplexed about the wrist ones, are there a lot of sweaty wrists out there that need to be reigned in?

    Haha. I was going to post before I read this. I never got the wristbands. Then one day on a run, wearing only a tank top and shorts, I was thinking how nice it would be to have a sleeve I could use and then I got it. I always use a wrist band now when running.

    Someone else asked about the plastc jackets - they are to make you sweat. Basically you just lose water weight but some people feel there is an advantage to them.

    We get a lot of " ahem" immigrants in my gym. For some reason, the ladies all wear make-up and sequined or gold lame' clothes for the Zumba classes.

    I have seen a man wearing crocs on the treadmill before.

    I'm not going to judge, i wear a shirt that says" Fat people are harder to kidnap" all the time to the gym. The instructors hate me.....

    I wear my kilt on occasion (especially when I'm wearing compression shorts), and I have a wide array of funny shirts I wear.

    The latest is a bright chartreuse tee that says "Warning: You may go blind from my pure awesomeness."

    I LOVE VIBRAMS i wear them for yoga and running when im not wearing shox
    also i saw somebody wearing a wetsuit i wonder if that was to increase temp, to increase sweating
