If it's not matching I'm like "gah!"

    I don't really judge, but I take notice. I do wonder how some people left looking the way they did... but to some it may be about comfort. I don't care as long as your covered and your comfortable.

    Only women who work out wearing a bra. A bra is not a shirt.

    I'm the exact opposite... I figure if I am going to get disgustingly sweaty (which I do, it's nasty), I should wear old crappy t-shirts and sweat pants!!!:happy:

    As long as their bits are covered I tend to not pay attention. BUT I am also one that wears sweats and Tshirts because I honestly amd not there to pick anyone up so I don't care what I look like lol

    I just wear something to be comfortable. I know I am going to sweat and everything is going into the assh as soon as I get home anyway. Usually sweats and a short or long sleeve t. Sometimes my pants may have holes in them and sometimes the shirt may be so old and stained that you may wonder why i have not burned it yet. Sme of my clothes now hang on me since I am down almost 4 pounds since march, but they are comfortable. I promise to never go shirtless in the gym and I will never wear a bra.

    Don't think it matters what people wear as long as they are pushing their hardest and not making a fashion show about it. Here in New Zealand we don't have the extended range of workout clothes available, so I do get a bit envious with all the nice outfits other countries have.

    I can't judge because I am a terrible culprit. Last night I got home, rushed dinner and quickly threw on clothes to make my class on time not realizing until I left the gym that my blue bra showed right through the tanktop I had on. Another time I realized getting home that my dogs had chewed a nice hole in the butt of the pants I was wearing. The person behind me had a peak while I was working out that day! I now openly apologize to everyone else I encounter at the gym...but at least my clothes are clean!

    In the classes I teach I get excited when people give up their old sweats in place of something a little smaller, particularly the women in my step classes. When they first join they might as well be wearing pj's, but the first time they step into the room in their first tank or spandex capris I think "good for you" . . . so I don't think that the type of judging you were going for with your scarcasm, but it says a lot about that woman's confidence. Same thing with they guys in my pump classes, over time they chose clothes that they are wearing, instead of clothes that are wearing them.

    It doesn't matter to me. We are all there for a purpose and that's to get healthy or remain healthy. Clothes does not make you healthy or unhealthy.

    I steer clear of the people working out in those plastic sweat suits. One time, I was right next to this lady who was busting her *kitten* on the elliptical machine next to me. At some point she put down her arms and about a quart of sweat poured out of her sleeves and hit the floor next to me. I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

    I could care less. I mean, I'm/you/they are going to get all nasty and sweaty anyway so who cares what you're wearing. Comfort and movement are what's important. If someone is judging me on my workout clothes then they are, obviously, at the gym for the wrong reason.

    There are other people at the gym? Unless they are using a machine that I am trying to get on, I don't really pay attention.

    the only thing that irritates me is the girls that show up looking like they are headed tot he club or just got off the street corner.

    This was sort of in jest to the thread about judging people about what they eat. We really shouldn't care.

    hahaha..... actually, only when it is matchy-matchy, super expensive gear.... and we're not at a gym or park.... and there's a cup of starbucks in one hand and a yorkie in the purse..... 'judge' as.... 'what part of this picture does not belong'.... maybe it's an AZ thing.

    Wow really?? Cause I'm the one who puts on the most comfortable thing I have and that is usually my cotton, stretch capris that have paint all over them!! And I don't give a darn what anyone thinks of it, nor do I care what anyone else has on! I'm there to work out and get healthy and comfort is key!!

    I don't judge because:
    1) it could be all that they have
    2) at least they are exercising
    3) there have been times when I didn't match because my normal workout clothes were dirty and didn't dry in time for my next workout, so I just throw on whatever I can find
    4) maybe that is what they are comfortable in and aren't ready to wear tighter workout clohes
    5) I couldn't care less about what people are wearing LOL, it doesn't affect me in any way, so who am I to judge?

    Generally, no - everyone is sweating and working. I do wonder about people in the gym in street shoes, however, and I SERIOUSLY wonder about those souls in flip-flops.

    If it looks like they're trying to do more than workout, i judge! oops.

    EXACTLY my point too! And for heavens sake...cover it up! Not exactly flattery.

    Important part is that they are excersizing. If it is comfortable, covers, and safe.. Rock on!


    this if its comfortable, it fits and is suitable for the gym.. its work out attire.. if you have an issue with it.. don't look... or work out somewhere else.... i think its better (in my case) that fatty is at the gym or jogging on the sidewalk... not that they are at the gym and match...

    Workout clothes no. But when I see some overweight girls trying to pull off the "hoochey mama" look I gag.
