    Hiking boots
    Hiking backpack (a huge 75 liter one)


    That's about it.

    I am planning on starting yoga soon though, so will be buying clothes and a mat for that.

    An entire drawer full. But sadly, of that, I really only like 2 pairs of shorts, 1 sports bra, and a few (3?) tops so I should probably purge and replace. It is so hard to find shorts that I like and I'm starting to hate all my work-out tshirts because they are getting tight on my shoulders (which in reality is a good thing but kind of uncomfortable for working out). I also find it hard to justify tossing things that are perfectly good still, although I don't wear them.

    Enough to get me through a week... though I can always throw more concert tees in there. I really need to work on that though. I just haven't had time to go shopping in forever. 4 pairs of long pants, 4 sport bras and a series of concert tees that I throw in whenever...

    I haven't actually taken inventory but after losing quite a bit of weight and dropping several sizes, the majority of my clothes that fit are workout and running clothes.

    I've got 5 pairs of Adidas track pants that I use for the gym.
    I've also got 1 pair of cotton/fleece pants for the cooler nights.

    In terms of shirts, I usually wear graphic t-shirts to the gym. I do own a ton of Nike Dri-fit t-shirts and Under Armour mock turtle necks, but I try to use those on bike rides.

    5 pair of pants
    2 pair of capris
    1 pair of capris (cotton)
    5 or 6 pairs of shorts
    and a bunch of shirts

    I also have trimming shorts.

    At last count I had well over a hundred items from lululemon, not to mention the under armor collection & all of the non name brand stuff... It's safe to assume that I think you "need" more workout clothes!!!! ;)

    2 pairs of "Women's Plus Side Ruched Bootcut Yoga Pants" from ON
    A one piece swimsuit that could be more practical from ON because the stupid straps are removable and one of them got lost inside my dresser somehow.
    1 pair of the regular boot cut yogas from on in the XL size (These aren't as wicking or as nice as the plus size ones.)
    A built in sports bra tank that's pretty, but mashes down my breasts so much I look like a man and never wear. Paid $3 for it at the place where I used to work.

    I need new sneakers, mine are just about shot. I am cheap and usually buy those sketcher's maryjane ones so I can wear them to my job, which I walk to, as well.

    It's okay to buy as many as you want if you will use them. If I can manage to actually use the gym membership I got as a bday present 2 years ago but got locked into a contract on and have to keep paying, I will buy myself more.

    According to my husband, too many! I don't do the matchy stuff like most. All my bottoms are Danskin from Walmart! I love them, they wash well and make my butt look awesome! I have a few tanks with built in bras and just wear whatever t shirts Ivan find to throw on. (And yes I'm guilty of wearing my danskins out and not just to the gym, they don't "look" like yoga pants, more like a thin sweatpant and are sooo comfy)

    Buy more! Especially if what you have doesn't fit. My trainer started complaining my clothes were to big, I got smaller sizes and started feeling better about how I looked at the gym.....sorry just random thoughts thrown together. :)

    Way too much. I need to back away from the Target active area. I always go by and see what is on sale.
    It is now spilling out of the large drawer I keep it all. It is growing.. especially with the cool weather pieces (I sure do love the long leggings. I love to wear them around the house and go run errands in.)

    I haven't counted, but I have two weeks' worth. I work out 6 days a week. I usually do laundry when I run out of socks.

    I don't own much, but I certainly need to use them more.

    1 bra
    2 shorts
    1 pair of compression capris
    1 tank
    2 shirts

    :frown: Man. Now I want to go out and buy more. Worst of all, I work in the clothing at Target so I get to see that clearance activewear every day.

    mostly from target & kohls

    3 pr long black workout pants
    1 pr long pink workout pants
    1 pr long grey workout pants
    6 pr diff. shorts
    10 shirts (at least and prob. should toss a few)
    2 workout t-shirts

    I always want to buy more but usually don't. My last purchase was a real steal at Old Navy online - a workout top for $3.68!

    Right now I have:

    1 pair of black yoga pants (that are at least 1 size too big)
    1 pair of black sweatpants
    2 Sports Bras

    And a bunch of various extra small T shirts (mostly black) and some that are too big.

    I'd like to go shopping sometime.

    Uh yeah...it's okay to buy more

    I would tell you what I own, but I'd have to go do an inventory and it might take a while....

    From memory:

    10 full sports bras (purple, hot pink, red, blue, orange, black, black/grey, lavender, white with green/navy stripe, navy with yellow & red strip) ,
    7 short sports bras (light pink, 3 hot pink/black (different brands), black/white stripe, black, light blue/navy),
    7 long sleeve thermal running shirts (grey, dark grey/purple, fushia, camo, white, navy, multi-color),
    9 long running pants (Almost all Black, Black/red, navy and 2 grey),
    8 capri running pants (2 navy, 2 grey, light blue, black, black/red, black/hot pink),
    12 pairs of running shorts (colors matching the bra tops),
    2 running jackets (red and pink),
    tons of t-shirts should I desire to wear one when I don't need a long sleeve shirt.

    That's all I can remember from memory.

    1 drift shirt
    5+ worn-out tees
    4 soccer shorts

    They're not exclusively for lifting but its the most common stuff I wear to the gym.
