MANILA, Philippines - It’s that time of the year again. You know, the time of the year when we all start stripping down to the bare minimum because it’s just that hot. When it’s finally (mostly) acceptable to go around covered in less cloth than more, which kind of requires getting back in shape and hitting the gym. (Ugh, the gym.)
While some people seem capable of maintaining a regular schedule of pumping iron or hitting the treadmill, some of us simply cannot abide the tedium. We like our workouts (when we actually have the time) to be a little more exciting, and our athletic wear, doubly so. Nothing makes us want to work up a sweat more than new workout clothes (we admit), so, inspired by Richard Simmons and his immensely entertaining aerobics videos, as well as our forever life peg Grace Jones in all her ‘80s glory, we’re throwing you some crazy colorful outfits that are sure to get you pumpin’ up the jams and dancing off the weight in no time.
