How To Look Stylish In The Gym This Winter…

12/10/2018

The weather has started to turn and it’s getting colder, wetter, and more miserable! 

The other week when walking to the gym I got absolutely drenched, I didn’t wear water proof clothes and it wasn’t until my workout finished that I started to dry off! I felt very uncomfortable throughout the entire session and therefore didn’t get a very good workout in! 

I left feeling slightly demotivated! 

On my wet walk back from the gym, I drowned my sorrows, by drinking a protein shake and thinking about how to stop this from happening again! 

I figured I needed a bit of retail therapy lol…

It got me thinking about buying a whole new wardrobe of gym clothes…

Stylish, clothes that fit well, suit my physique, and clothing that lasts (there’s nothing worse than those tops you buy that lose their shape after 2 washes!).

When I got back I treated myself to some new gym clothes. Having spent thousands of pounds over the years on gym wear (especially considering that i’m a personal trainer and live in sportswear!) I like to think that I have a pretty good taste for gym clothing…

Moving Away From Mainstream Brands…

Over the last few years i’ve stopped buying as many high street brands, I still buy them, but far less! For example I’ve only purchased one item from Nike this year (a pair of trainers!). 

Instead I enjoy buying designer gym wear, which is specifically made for athletic guys…

Over the last 5 years i’ve purchased lots of Gym Shark gear, I really like them, especially when they first came onto the scene with their tracksuits, however I think they’ve become a bit too commercial and everybody in the gym is wearing Gym Shark!

In more recent years i’ve opted for other brands like Gym King, and BADR – they all have great quality gear.

A couple of weeks ago however I wanted to try a different brand, I asked my workout buddy what brands he was a fan of and he told me about Nuevo Club

I’d heard of them before, seeing them on Instagram and a couple of Facebook ads and liked what I saw…but at that time I didn’t need any clothes! 

I decided this time to buy a couple of items to see what they were like…

They arrived last week and i’m thrilled with them! The quality is excellent, they fit really well and make you feel great in the gym. I purchased a long sleeve jumper and the signature tapered joggers and would highly recommend them. 

5 Must Buy Winter Gym Clothing Items…

If you want to look cool in the gym this winter then i’d recommend picking up the following items…

#1 Joggers – For comfort and warmth in the gym – I really rate the Nuevo Club Signature Collection

#2 Jumper – to help raise your body temperature during your warm up 

#3 Hat – if you walk to the gym then keep your head and ears warm 

#4 Winter Coat – I rate the coats from Gym King, they are excellent and look very trendy

#5 Fitted T-Shirt – to show off your physique in the gym, when you’ve done a couple of sets and are pumped up!
