Lean and Mean

Lean and Mean: "Today’s women’s workout clothing is made from breathable microfibers that wick moisture away from the body, and more importantly, allow the moisture to evaporate from the surface of the clothing. This is the body cooling advantage that modern women’s workout clothes have over cotton which is too absorbent to encourage the necessary evaporation. One other advantage of special workout clothes is that exercise tees, shorts, and pants are designed to accommodate the full range of motion of the body. For obvious reasons womens workout clothes are made differently than men’s workout clothes, and plus size exercise clothes are different still. Often it is not just the design but also the stitching pattern and placement that make an exercise tee feel so much more comfortable."
