Decided I need some new gym tops as a 'reward' for sticking at it and because my old ones are all big baggy t shirts. Trouble is, not sure where to start! I'm after some longline vests that aren't too clingy (or expensive!). Any suggestions?? Thanks! X
Probably best to go to Sports Direct or use M and M direct, they normally have good offers. I have found you get what you pay for though i got some cheap bottoms from tesco and asda and to be honest there rubbish haha. So a couple of week ago i went to sports direct and got a under armour t-shirt for £11 and a sleeveless nike t-shirt £9 and some adidas bottoms for £25 i also brought some compression bottoms and tops they are by a make called sondico and i think they are more of a football brand and they are about £8-10 each. I also got a nike livestrong t-shirt for £10 from tk maxx. These are all dry wicking which does make a massive difference for training in. I didnt believe it at first but it really does make a difference. I will probably some nike compression stuff next as it is better quality.
What im going to do is buy a couple of bits each month with the money i save from not drinking haha.
By the way im no expert on any of this lol and its just my opinion, hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge can help out more.

Thanks Craig - hadn't thought of sports direct, mainly because I see the crowds from outside and can't be bothered. Maybe I'll try....! X

The XPG range in Debenhams has a few different styles and is reasonably priced, they often have offers too. I've been using the tops and leggings at the gym for a year and they hold up well. My favourite is a loose, long vest with a tie bottom as it keeps me nice and cool.
I also have tops from Sports Direct but I've found you have to watch the sizing as it can be hit and miss. I would recommend trying them on before buying as I've ben caught out before.
Sweaty Betty!!! Their plain tank tops are the best! Loads of different colours and really long!
