What's with the obligatory baseball cap while working out?
« on: March 30, 2017, 09:48:08 AM »
I'm no fashion expert and rarely notice clothes style.
But, over the years, I've noticed a lot of baseball caps worn while working out.
Never understood the purpose of it?

Stops sweat from rolling in my eyes. Worn low with music in ears, deters others from making idle chit chat.

Regular caps or the ones that cover half the ears and have the gold sticker on it which screams "Look I got a new hat "  ::)

I tend to agree, however, I often ride a motorcycle to work, then gym, and helmet hair is not a great look on anyone.  And I won't stoop so low as to "style" my matted down hair in the mirror at the gym before I lift, lol.  So, often, a cap it is.

It is to cover the bald spot on top of your head.

If getbiggers concentrated as much on their workouts as they do the clothes of other dudes in the gym, they might be better off.

Anytime I'm not a work (or some formal situation) I'm most likely wearing a cap....have since I was kid.  I lounge in cap sometimes, drive in a cap, run errands in a cap, visit friends in a cap, train in a cap, work around the house in a cap and basically wear a cap anywhere I can.

Plus, my wife loves me in a cap....has since we were kids.

I wonder why folks carry around big gym bags with them while they train?  Never understood that.  I have headphones, phone, wraps and a bottle of water....why the bag at every station at the gym?  Especially if they arrive at the gym in their workout clothes and leave the gym still in their soiled workout clothes LOL.   What's the bag for?

I had a gym buddy get his personal belongings stolen out of a locked locker.  wallet, cards, phone, etc....while he was training.  I guess they caught the guys later, but they posed as gym employees, wearing a polo of like color, so nobody batted an eye when he goes in and cuts the lock off.  I've been carrying a bag ever since, lol.

Why dont you talk to other gympeeps?
Working out is " going to war" for you? Its all serious and like " a battle " ?

I know what you're saying bro, less is more. I wish most of the men in the my gym wouldn't burden themselves with wearing clothes.

They shouldn't be ashamed of their beautiful bodies.

MOS nice see you back posting! Why you wear earphones? You dont seem like the type to be a serious and " beast mode " " war mode" " going to battle" while working out. Thought you were a chit chatting laid back workout fella while bringing the gospel in between sets.

Its for people who like to collect their bacteria from work out to workout and bathe their hair and foreheads in day old sweat.

That, or they don't want their yearly wigger-card to expire.

If you're not playing or coaching a sport, working outside, or hunting... Leave the hats alone... And wash and comb your hair. Dirtbags.

Working out with a cap on is a good way to make your head stink.  The heat has no where to go.
