The dorkiest stuff you've worn while working out!


Recommended Posts

So, I just finished doing some bodyweight stuff while wearing my Angry Birds pajamas, and it got me wondering if anyone else had workout out in, er, interesting garb.

 

Working out at home counts, but I once wore a shirt and my wrestling singlet to a commercial 24-7 gym for squats and deadlifts one day. Didn't get as many weird looks as I thought... which is really saying something for Australia. :S

 

Surely people can top that, right? Whaddaya got, rebels? =)

I don't wear dorky (I don't think) but I wear ratty: mismatched shorts and shirt, camo bandana, beat up sneakers, backpack.

 

I kinda look homeless when I'm out running through the 'hood. Especially compared to the rich, thin housewives "running" in matching Nike everything.

 

I'm pretty sure I get reported to the Neighborhood Watch :P

I wore a green man suit and my purple singlet to the last lifting meeting up as "THE BULK".

THAT. IS. AWESOME!!!!

Can't claim any dorky workout clothes but I got a couple of funny ones...

Got a t-shirt with the slogan "this girl like to go ALL THE WAY down" and a picture of a barbell on it.

And one with Belle (the Disney character) doing a weighted squat with "I only date beasts"

And my latest purchase.... "I clean, I jerk, and I have a nice snatch!" :o

I've got a pair of bright, neon-orange shorts that I've worn on occasion.

 

Though my little brother did a full workout routine in his Teletubby costume...

I have a pink and purple spandex one-piece thing that looks like it belongs on a ballernia.  It's pretty awful.  I've worn it on one bet, then afterwards on several occasions to embarass my friends.

 

Edit:  It has footies.

     Now I wish I had dorky training clothes...but I don't. Guess I don't have the confidence to wear something that would make me stand out that much. I however do admire those that can do it, just not my cup of tea.

Does a Force 10 case of bed-head and a Sylvester teeshirt count?  I tend to hit the gym first thing in the mornings, and my hair makes me look like Son Goku from Dragonball Z.  Compare me to the buzz-cuts and high-and-tights in their Under Armour teeshirt, and I'm a serious dork.

Bandana, Axl Rose style. It's hawt. 

     I used to wear bandanas like that back in high school and sometimes at work if I was sweating to much. Don't wear a red one or someone might get the idea to nickname you Rambo. Stuck with me for 5 years of one job ans some people never knew my real name because of it.

I painted the Punisher skull onto my black long-sleeve under armour knock-off and just finished putting the Autobot symbol on my blue one.  For short-sleeve, I'm just collecting the Under Armour Alter Ego shirts.

EPIC win right here.  Simply epic!

 

 

As for me, when I go to the gym I typically just wear black jiu-jitsu pants and a black tshirt.  So nothing too dorky there. 

 

On the off chance I work out at home, I usually do it in the nude.  I don't even own a pet, so it's not like anyone can see me.  And it's super comfortable.  Plus, it makes taking a shower afterwords incredibly easy.
