“Exercise not only changes your body, but it also changes your mind, your attitude and your mood”
Exercise has always been a part of our life. Whether it's in the form of running, stretching or gymming. Earlier when gymming was not so familiar among common people, people use to go for running or yoga. And for that people use to run in your trousers or t-shirt because there were no gym looks. One can say people were not so conscious about their gym outfit but with time people have started focusing on their outfits as well.
The 1980s was the time when stretchy gym trends began that included headbands and full-body lycra. then in the 1990s, things started becoming more relaxed and all thanks to Whitney Houston, Madonna DN princess Diana as theses lovely ladies inspired people to wear comfortable workout attire.it was a time when people were not so familiar with gym mens lingerie as a result people were more focused on comfortable trousers and t-shirt slowly and slowly people started paying attention to workouts underwear as well especially men. Men started giving preference to male underwear as well because it's equally important to have comfortable workout lingerie too.
