The upward trend in neon gym attire is fun! It's almost impossible to walk into the Active Wear section of any department store these days without being accosted by bright pink sports bras, lime green socks and neon blue capris. Working out in bright colors can add a dimension of fun and spunk that makes working out more enjoyable. However, if you're new to the gym and would prefer not to draw attention to yourself until you're more comfortable, or if neon just isn't your "thing"--don't feel at all obligated to fill your closet with bright orange and purple tank tops. Like parachute pants and Uggs, some trends just aren't for everybody, and that's OK.
