When you made the decision to establish an exercise routine for yourself you probably gave a great deal of thought as to just how you were going to go about it. You might have decided on an exercise plan that involved some type of exercise equipment. You may have contemplated using some kind of exercising DVDs to use in your workout. You may have even decided to venture out to a gym and purchased a gym membership.
If you were going to be working out at home you probably did not give much thought as to what you would be wearing. A pair of shorts and your old ragged tee shirt would suffice. After all, who would be seeing you anyway? If you were going to a gym though you probably wanted to get yourself a couple of cute workout outfits. Did you, though, think about what you would wear underneath your workout clothes? What you wear underneath is a pretty important decision. You want to choose something that will allow you to keep as cool as possible and hold yourself in so that nothing jiggles around on you. If you do not support your body it could be very uncomfortable once you start jumping around. If you are large on top it can be downright painful and throw you off balance.
For the top of your body you definitely want to get a good sports bra. This will give you the most comfortable support and hold it all together no matter how much jumping around you do. For a jogger it is a necessity. One of the best sports bras available today is the Nike Revolutionary Bra at http://store.nike.com/?country=US&lang_locale=en_US&l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-1/pgid-97457/pid-97455#l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-1/pgid-97457/pid-97455. This custom fit bra took six years to come together. It is getting rave reviews.
For the bottom half of you the thong is the way to go for looks. There are no panty lines and your workout pants will look great. For those of you who are not particularly fond of thongs the Hanky Panky brand makes their thongs with a wider waistband that are very comfortable to wear. At http://www.hankypanky.com/Thongs you will find that there are several types to choose from all with a wider than average waistband.
Do not underestimate the importance of what you are wearing underneath your clothing. The more comfortable you feel in what you are wearing the more smoothly your workout will be.
