A cute gym outfit a day keeps the gains coming your way. I think it’s safe to say I have unlocked a new level of confidence in the gym which includes looking as cute as possible every workout!
I’ve already shared some of my favorite fitness brands in a previous post here. But it took some time and confidence to get here especially post-mombod! Granted, I am fairly the same size that I was before I was pregnant but I’m still trying to figure out my style as a mom. Below are my top needs for my workout clothes.
Short Shorts…Not So Much
I rarely wore extremely short bottoms to the gym, but lately, I’ve been experimenting with adding them to my wardrobe. It turns out I like them, but only at a certain length. Maybe that will change in a few years when my quads are more defined. Until then bring on the shorts but not so short. 😌
Men’s Clothes Are Tea
Listen I know that the men’s sections for T-shirts are always lit but let’s give a round of applause for their gym shorts and sweats. I love a pair of oversized mesh shorts or a dope oversized T-shirt. I like to wrap an oversized shirt around my neck revealing a cute cropped sports bra!

There Is a Science to The Crop
I love a good cropped top since I’ve been working hard on my waist. The world needs to see! However, it’s a fine line on what level of crop I am willing to wear. I’m 5’6 so I believe GymShark has the perfect crop that makes me feel comfortable for every workout. High enough to show some waist but long enough to wear so I don’t feel overexposed.
Pockets and High Waist, Please
I’m still exploring different legging styles but one thing I know for sure is I prefer pockets and a high waist! If the leggings aren’t high-waisted I don’t want them. I need my leggings squat-proof and not see-through.
There may be some wiggle room with the pockets. The sets pictured below don’t have pockets but I loved them. It’s just so convenient to have pockets to stuff with my AirPods, my phone, or a few extra Rice Krispy Treats. 😏
The gym is my safe haven, and going daily enhances my life. Feeling cute and putting effort into my appearance to work out makes it even more rewarding. I can’t wait to see how my cute gym outfits evolve or even what new fitness brands I discover. Now that you know my favorite things to wear to the gym, check out this post on what to pack in your gym bag.
