1. Notes when choosing yoga clothes for women
- About design and size
Yoga is a sport that promotes positivity, beauty and self-love in practitioners. Therefore, there is no need to impose too many standards on yoga practice clothing . However, with the experience of long-time yogis, clothes with the right size should be prioritized when practicing yoga. If clothes are too loose, it will hinder the observation of the body during practice, on the contrary, clothes that are too tight will cause discomfort and poor blood circulation.
- About material
The next criterion to consider when choosing yoga clothes is the material. Yoga clothes need to be breathable and sweat-absorbent. Not only that, due to the focus on body movements, yoga clothes must have optimal elasticity to accommodate large-amplitude stretching and bending movements.
For yoga clothes , synthetic fabrics from spandex and polyester are suitable choices because of their high elasticity and moderate hugging ability, helping the wearer confidently perform movements.
2. Suggested yoga outfits for women
In general, choosing yoga clothes for women is not too fussy and complicated, but it also needs to meet the notes mentioned above. Below are the most commonly used types of clothes by yogis that you can refer to.
- Sports bra : Sports bra is a type of bra designed specifically for physical exercise. You should choose a sports bra with a moderate fit to help support your bust during exercise, and the open part in the abdomen also helps the practitioner feel more comfortable when performing difficult movements.
- Tank top: Tank top is also known as a sleeveless shirt. Because some yoga exercises require a lot of movement in the arms and shoulders, sleeved shirts sometimes hinder the performance of the movements. Therefore, tank tops are the ideal choice for your yoga practice.
For tank tops with wide sleeves, the wearer can choose to combine them with a sports bra underneath to maintain modesty while still providing enough support.
- Leggings: Leggings are the most popular choice among yogis. The Shorts have superior elasticity, allowing the practitioner's body to move freely. In addition, with the ideal fit, the practitioner can easily observe the postures and correct any errors.
- Shorts : Quite similar to leggings , shorts are usually knee-length, suitable for wearing on hot days.
