Finding that perfect workout outfit
When selecting workout clothing, comfort and safety are most important. Always make sure to plan each outfit for the specific workout activity. Apparel for a walk or run is different from yoga and Pilates gear which differs from clothing for a game of basketball or volleyball.
A tank top is a nice choice for most exercise activities. The Canvas 3400C Men's Mulholland Rib Tank is a good choice for those who prefer to exercise in tanks as opposed to t-shirts. As tanks allow for more movement, they are smart choices for weight-lifting and numerous exercises. This 100% combed ringspun cotton tank has a rib knit for a comfortable snug fit with some stretch. It is available in three basic colors and five sizes ranging from S-2XL. A racerback style allows for a free range of movement for the arms and shoulders, as even the shoulder blades are exposed. The Bella B4070 Women's 2x1 Rib Racerback Longer-Length Tank has these smart qualities along with moisture-wicking properties to keep perspiration from hindering a workout. The rib knit allows for the shirt to be more form-fitting and ensure proper coverage throughout the exercise. A top like this one works well for any indoor or warm-weather activity.

Basics such as these tanks are perfect to have on hand in bulk of multiple colors.
Performance t-shirts are always great for any sports activity. Most styles have moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties to protect the shirt from being weighed down by perspiration as is the tendency of standard cotton t-shirts. The Champion CW22 Men's Double Dry Performance T-Shirt is a 100% polyester single knit jersey t-shirt with a double dry moisture wicking finish. With set-in full short sleeves, the shirt offers extra coverage for those who prefer a full t-shirt over a tank. This extra strong and resilient t-shirt is available in seven colors and six sizes ranging from S-3XL. The Champion CW23 Women's Double Dry Performance T-Shirt has the same smart attributes styled with a woman's fit. The other main difference is the raglan sleeve style. Raglan sleeves are stitched at a diagonal across the bottom of the shoulder, as opposed to the standard vertical set-in sleeve. The raglan diagonal allows for a larger range of motion in the arms and shoulders. It is perfect for all sports, especially baseball.
