    Hmm, maybe wear a bodysuit underneath your shirt and pants if you are worried about your stomach showing.

    I just wear tees/tanks and yoga pants or capris. Nothing too snazzy.

    When I instruct/teach, I'll be more nicely put together though. My own workout, I stick to the basics...I want to drip in sweat and not worry about ruining something.

    I got a few tops at Old Navy……Semi-fitted so not tight and don't cling. They are pretty breathable.
    They were like $5 a piece and have a bunch of colors.

    I usually wear a t-shirt with a pair of athletic pants/shorts...I guess you could try and find a tunic shirt or a longer t-shirt....but people are seriously not going to even notice (or care) about you showing your stomach at the gym.

    I wear loose gym pants and usually a t-shirt. The t-shirts are usually men's shirts so they are long and leave me a lot of room for arms up in the air. I just bought a gym shirt on sale yesterday (women's style) but have not worn it yet to the gym, but it looks pretty long. I've been thinking about wearing shorts now that it's getting warmer, but I'm 65 and the legs don't look like they used to! :-)

    I wear a pair of loose fit sweatshorts and a men's longtailed tee in a size too big to make room for the 'girls'.

    That being said, a flash of my tummy or the wobbly bits of my arms is prolly the least of worries at the gym, really. ;)

    The V-neck vintage tees from Old Navy are long and pretty roomy. I wear a tank under them and never have any guts coverage issues lol.

    Costco has a bunch of tank tops workout wear that are longer and are awesomely priced! I own them in pretty much every color.

    A tank top and shorts. Be comfortable and wear something that doesn't get in the way.

    I wear a normal t shirt and jogging pants. I wear loose clothes because I sweat a lot and need air all over.

    i feel like your reaching gut show problem would best be resolved by layering a long sleeved t shirt to cover the bingo wings and armpits over a long tank top for working out that is bunched around your hips and so will have leftover fabric to still cover when you reach.

    bonus: when you are done working out it will be refreshing to remove the overshirt and have most of the armpit sweat on that rather than your tank.

    i can't beleive i'm talking about armpits. is this weekend almost over?

    Are you tall? Old Navy has "tall" workout clothes that generally prevent the belly hanging out.

    I have several long tight ftting tanks that I layer under all my tees to keep my belly from showing when I do stuff like overhead press or log press.

    Nah, I just wear a good sports bra (Which is key if you've got beeeeeewbs!) and a loose tank top and then some spandex shorts or capris (Hate the long ones).

    No one cares, honey- rock those shorts!

    I tend to wear yoga pants and tshirts. I do wear the Old Navy vintage tees, but I find they aren't really long enough if you're doing arms above your head type stuff. I always wear camis under my tees, so it's not a problem for me, but if you don't, you may have belly flashing issues.

    I have the opposite problem -- these tops (UnderArmour, Nike) are so long, they come down to my crotch. Ugh, I hate it. I have yet to find something that won't come past my hips.

    Like you, I don't show my pits, always have short sleeves on. :tongue:

    Usually a tec T (ON Active, Brooks, etc.) and some ON compression capris or Brooks/ON running shorts. I'm 5'7" but short torsoed and the ON active tops are plenty long enough for me.
