But make sure that they are not too tight as that may cause discomfort while working out. Choose your clothes according to the exercise you will be doing. Observe other athletes to get an idea of what to wear.
Wear sweat absorbent clothes

Usually, cotton, Spandex and Lycra are the top choices for exercise clothes as they are light, flexible and absorb moisture from the body. Go for any material that specifies moisture wick technology. Read the labels on the clothes carefully to find out what the garment is made of before buying them.

For example, cross training type shoes are ideal for activities like aerobics and weight lifting. Make sure that you buy the correct size of shoes and team it up with good socks or else you can suffer from painful blisters.
