Your outfits affect your fitness level? Not a joke.

Not sure if I am the only one but wearing stretchy/comfortable clothing does help me to relax and focus better. Back in the corporate days I used to wear pencil skirts or close fit dresses that wrapped tight around my waist, literally giving me no room to breathe and suspiciously, leaving my blood running really slow ☹

Have you ever been to a 3 o’clock meeting in the arvo where you struggled big time to keep your eyes open? Well most likely it was because you had a big lunch that has your stomach taken up most of the blood flows to help digesting the food – which caused a temporary insufficient blood flowing to your brain. What your outfits can do to your efficiency at work could be surprising. Moreover, even colours could play a huge role in your morale. Athletes in red clothing won more events in the 2004 Olympic games than their competitors in blue, which inspired researchers to see if that was just a coincidence or if there is something special about the colour red. The study, published in the Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology, found that people who exercised in red could lift heavier weights and had higher average heart rates, indicating they were working harder than those wearing blue, even though both groups reported similar rates of exertion.
