Originating in India, yoga is a practice method that requires a combination of physical and mental at the same time. Practicing yoga not only helps the body stay supple, healthy, and maintains youthfulness, but also helps to keep the mind calm. In order for the practice to be highly effective, besides choosing appropriate exercises and guidance, the training outfit also plays a big part. So what are the yoga items you should have in your closet?

There are two criteria to keep in mind when choosing a yoga exercise. First, the training outfit should be comfortable and convenient for exercise. Clothes that are too tight or inelastic can make it difficult to move your body. Clothes that are too wide or clumsy will interfere with vision or interfere. Yoga outfits should be just right and simple.

Besides, the material is also an important "bullet point" that you need to note. When practicing Yoga, the body produces a lot of sweat, requiring clothing materials to be breathable and have moderate moisture absorption. Although cotton is famous for being absorbent, it accidentally makes the suit heavier and sticks to the body by "sucking" a lot of water. The two most ideal materials for yoga clothes are nylon and polyester. 

SPORTS BRA

Light, comfortable, and easy to work out, a sports bra is the basic thing you should have. Different from a regular bra, a sports bra is wider, with an absorbent cotton pad and an elastic band.

When buying this shirt, choose the right size between the shoulder, back and chest. You can ask a counselor when buying to choose the most suitable product. 

 

T-shirts are favored by many girls because of its convenience. You can take advantage of T-shirts already in the closet without buying a new one. Both short-sleeved or long-sleeved t-shirts can be worn when doing yoga. However, choose designs that fit, the fabric is not too thick and squash. 

For those who choose to wear a long-sleeved T-shirt, make sure the sleeves are not too tight so that you can easily perform the hand movements well, while not too wide that makes you uncomfortable and distracting. You might also consider the following sports-tailored t-shirts:

 

TANK TOP

If a sleeve t-shirt makes you uncomfortable while practicing hand movements, a tank top (tank top) is the perfect alternative. You should limit wearing tank tops that split too wide because they will cause a lot of trouble during practice. 

 

 

YOGA LEGGINGS 

Thanks to the special fabric material, the yoga leggings are light weight, have good elasticity, hold the legs, are breathable and prevent odors. You should buy this type of pants at reputable addresses to avoid buying the wrong product of poor quality or the wrong size, affecting training efficiency. Besides, you can refer to more "tips" to choose other pants to find the most ideal pants for you. 

If you already have leggings in your closet, you can make use of them provided that your pants are stretchy, not too tight and of a moderate thickness. 

SPORT SHORTS

The familiar loose-fitting sports pants with a elastic back can also be applied to yoga gear. This type of pants is suitable for exercises with moderate rhythm, not having to move the legs continuously.

 

SOME OTHER ACCESSORIES

Training bare feet is always encouraged by coaches, but many people still feel more comfortable wearing socks. This is fine, especially for those with a lot of foul tissue on the soles of the feet. Just make sure to choose materials that are lightweight and stretch well. 

Keeping hair neat is one of the essential things to do before yoga. You can bun or braid your hair with a soft elastic band, wear a headband that holds bangs and prevents perspiration, and at the same time limit too tight hair ties that damage the scalp.

For smart watches or other fitness trackers, it's okay to wear these accessories if needed, as long as they don't make you uncomfortable.
