So the other day I was at the gym and saw this girl who was probably in her mid 30's trying to fit in clothes she bought when she was in her mid teens. This might be an over exaggeration but I don't think it is. As I saw her fat rolls coming out of her shirt I felt a little disturbed. Why would someone want to wear clothes like that out in public, granted it is just a gym but there still has to be some sort of weight limit on the clothes. I could hear the seams yelling help me, help me. I almost wanted to go over and offer some money to buy new clothes but that would be rude and counter productive. With that being said it is important to wear appropriate apparel for your workout. I am not saying go out and buy $200 running shoes or buy brand new clothes. Get clothes and equipment you feel comfortable working out in. This will help you go to the gym and you won't feel embarrassed for being out in public, and even more important other people won't feel embarrassed for you being out in public.
