    I generally wear yoga pants and a moisture wicking top with a sports bra. I wear a super support bra on running days and a medium support bra on arc trainer, strength training days. But I always wear a shirt over my sports bra.

    I only go to the gym on weight training days. I wear flat soled sneakers, ankle socks, basketball shorts, a regular bra, and a cotton tank top.

    I run outside other days and wear running shoes, ankle socks, running tights, sports bra, and a moisture wicking tank top.

    My gym doesn't allow the sports bra only look, not that I'd dare to wear only a sports bra anyway lol.

    I wear a sports bra, UA moisture tank or tee, and UA shorts or pants depending on the weather.

    form-fitting workout pants (I prefer capris) and lycra tank/workout top. I'm a fitness instructor and we are not permitted to wear just a sports bra or the super short workout shorts at this Y (not that I would wear that anyway).

    I wear running shorts or capris when it's warm, yoga pants when it's cooler, sports bra and t-shirt. Sometimes I wear a tech t-shirt and sometimes just a regular ol' cotton tee. I don't think I'd ever be brave or confident enough for just a sports bra! lol I prefer to run outside to running on the track at the Y, and I pretty much wear the same types of things. I have two different pairs of gym shoes though. One for running (that is ALL I wear them for) and then another pair for boot camp class or cross training, or when I work out at home.

    Running shorts, t-shirt, shoes, socks. I usually double up on sports bras because I don't like any kind of boob movement :P

    I wear running shorts or Lycra capris with an underwire sports bra topped with a normal sports bra covered with an old navy v neck that's a size or two too big. I need some good lifting shoes (ive been using old running shoes I don't run in anymore), so I'll keep an eye on this thread :)

    Generally I'm in lululemon studio capris, with a sports bra and tank on top. My gym is another that won't allow the sports bra only look, which I'm not quite ready for anyways.

    I wear a sports bra under a workout tank or a workout t-shirt. Either lycra capris or workout shorts. If I'm on leg day I wear compression shorts under the workout shorts. Other than that, socks, shoes, my HRM, and my ipod.. LOL

    One of my goals is to be comfortable wearing just a sports bra to the gym... But, my comfort will require a nice 4 pack of abs which is quite a ways off! ;)

    To answer your question... I usually wear a workout tank that has the bra built in and then either capris or pants.

    Generally I'm in capri length yoga pants, a sports bra (2 if I'm doing jumping), and a fitted tank.

    At the gym I typically wear a sports bra a tank top and spandex shorts/yoga pants. At home I wear spanks and a sports bra.

    Sports bra, yoga pants and whatever singlet smells the least...I prefer wearing tight clothes, I feel like I'm more restricted wearing loose clothes for some reason. :)

    I wear a sports bra with a tank top over it and yoga pants. I'm not trying to impress anyone. I just want to work up a good sweat : )

    I actually prefer cotton yoga pants to lycra pants...for me they breathe easier. I wear a regular underwire bra (I haven't found a good underwire sports bra yet...any info would be appreciated :) )...and then a wicking tank and a cotton shirt of some kind. I actually really like the 'boyfriend tees' from target. they are v-neck and the material is fairly thin. :)

    Yoga pants, a seriously heavy duty sports bra (bounce.titlenine.com... many choices for the DD crowd), and often a long sleeved, synthetic fiber t-shirt. I don't know why some folks seem to think I want to see so much of their skin (and drippy, flying sweat) when they're working out.

    Seeing as I am the only woman in the free weight room, I make sure to cover up as much as possible. Yoga pants, compression bra (bless you Champion!) and a baggy long sleeve T. The guys are covered up, too, so anything less wouldn't look appropriate.

    Since my last post I bought a bunch of stuff:

    -Compression pants
    -spandex shorts
    -2 awesome underarmour sports bras (I am little on top and they are like moisture wicking spandex bralettes)
    -running shorts

    so now I can comfortably wear my tank tops without flashing anyone and by the end of the workout I have sweat on my back and front but it's worth it- I hate the workout tanks with built in bras they are too hot and restrictive for me.

    I was just complaining about the workout tanks with built in bras.. I tried on one last night that was medium and fit like an extra small.. god was that annoying. Plus they are really restrictive and tight!

    The best workout tanks I found are by Under Armor.. I got them at the outlet, but they are very soft, loose and long. I love them for lifting weights in!

    Sports bra under a men's undershirt (I buy those Hanes multipacks because they are way cheaper than they women's equivalents!) and capri-length yoga pants or full length running pants depending on how hot it is. I'm definitely not confident enough in my belly yet to just wear the sports bra either!!

    Capris, cotton tee-shirt (not baggy), underwire Danskin sports bra and tennis shoes for my exercise workout days. For zumba days, basically the same except I have a pair of capezios for zumba shoes and a 2nd sports bra. Oh and my Polar FT7 HRM - every workout.
