As above, this will be covered in expenses of the shoot to my supplement sponsor.

[Morba]

Shhhhhh don't let the facts get in the way of a good witch hunt

vest??

****** t-shirt, baggy tracksuit bottoms, and ripped stained sweatshirt.

I rock the gym look.

Can't stand people who turn up in the gym looking like they've walked through a designer shop... you're here to train, rip your clothes, and bleed. The amount of tshirts and tracksuits I've ripped and damaged and bled on it just doesn't make sense to me...

Was a joke mate, wasn't serious.

But as stated, are you sure you can wear branded clothing if you don't represent that brand?

This.

One of the funny things about training in my virgin gym is that you leave the gym floor and walk down some stairs into reception / bar area.
Ripped old top, covered in chalk dragging my bag with towel, belt and random crap falling out of it is a good look

 

[Freefaller]

I'm the same - especially at my brocep paradise gym that is David Lloyd. The looks I get with chalk covered trousers, holey top, and belt/chained around me is hilarious!

I still train in my old Canterbury 'quit pussy footing around' t-shirt. I bought it when I was 16, they only had an XXL and I was around an M at the time so I bought it and said that day that it only stops getting worn is once I've filled it. It's covered in holes, faded, letters missing...I must be an XL now, but until that shirt is skin tight its coming in the gym with me*

*or to my grave

[MoNkeE]

Damn, I wear Superdry joggers and Jack Jones vests. **** you all, I just want to look FABULOUS!

 

[Delvis]

My clothes looks pretty new, but thats because they are new, I'm sure in time they'll get scruffier

 

[MoNkeE]

Good story, will read again/10

 

[Delvis]
