What do you wear to lift/ does it make a difference?

Hi keith!

You seem to know an aweful lot about these two guys?:icon_neut

I spend a decent amount of time at the gym. Time between sets is good for people watching. I see you finally figured out how to add an avatar.

I'm pretty dumb but I figured it out.:icon_chee

I used Microsoft Digital Photo Editor. There is an option for resizing for use on mobile devices that works perfect.

Gloves are gay, not even bodybuilders wear them.

I wear Converse style shoes, pair of shorts and usually a couple layers on top, sometimes the gym is really cold and I actually cool down in between sets.

shorts, barefoot

I where New Balance Cross Trainers, UA shorts and a normal t-shirt.

I wear shorts and a t-shirt, except when I only plan on deadlifting (pretty rare these days) I feel more comfortable in sweat pants when deadlifting for some odd reason.

the university gym usually turns into a sauna quick with all the people so I usually suit up with shorts and a white tee and some adidas sneaks... but now I believe I gotta invest in some good shoes for lifting.

Solid color short-sleeve T-shirt and non-matching solid-color elastic-waist gym shorts, usually -- I try not to draw attention to myself. Though for PL club workouts sometimes I wear a homemade Bad Brains T-shirt (vintage group photo of the band, no logo). And I'm gonna get a "Miskatonic University" T-shirt I'm gonna have to wear. (Miskatonic U is constantly mentioned in H.P. Lovecraft stories).

Shoe-wise, crappy Avia cross-trainers or low-top Chucks, depending on what I'm doing.

spandex and a sweatshirt or longsleeve. the 98 adidas eqt lifting shoes.

 

[Deleted member 130905]

I need to invest in some better lifting shoes.

 

[Cap'n]

track pants, St.W shirt or hoodie usually, chucks for deadlifts, Oly shoes for everything else.

Does tape on the thumbs count?

I've started lifting in the nude to satisfy Gotti McCarran.

Even though I lift at home (where I live alone) I can't bring myself to lift in anything less than mesh shorts.

 

[magicman531]

Sweat pants and a sweat shirt. Or just a t-shirt and shorts if the weather permits it. My home gym is out under a carport and it gets ch-ch-ch-illy Oh and just some new balance tennis shoes.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

thats why you are weak. carport.

 

[ahab]

Does he need a full fledged parking ramp to lift in or what?

 

[Zerocrew1984]

see, you get it.

 

[RaposaBJJ]

Shorts and a short sleeve shirt all year round. Oh and I do were gloves. Not allowed to use chalk at my gym. Looking into using this sticky spray stuff I saw at the Inzer site for grip.

I might buy some skater shoes for lifting though. Flat bottom is good for DL's and its not to much a biggie for Squats rights?
