To your right is a picture of me displaying my sophisticated sense of style. All jokes aside I have recently come across the need to develop attire that works in the gym, and still can be worn in everyday situations. The reason I chose this picture besides ridicule is because I also wore this to the gym (besides the hat). The jersey was too lose around my waist and would 'catch' and rub against my lats, the shorts were to baggy when I squatted and I had little to no compression, and the shoes just didn't have a strong enough sole to effective support my lifts.

 I was never huge into fashion or attire growing up, I was always moving and playing sports and was that kid in shorts even when it was 30 degrees out. My tendons, ligaments, and joints took a beating from endless hours on the court, but were also made worse by the fact that I often didn't have the proper equipment for what I was doing. From the years I've spent in the gym I am starting to realize the importance of proper attire while. Beyond the looks, I feel it is extremely important to wear clothing that will improve performance and also protect your body from the extreme levels you are pushing it to. There is no better feeling training worry free, feeling stylish, and having the confidence that you can train with the utmost intensity yet still be safe while doing so. This line I am currently working on is primarily for ensuring your training is as efficient, intense, and helps you push past your limits every day, every set, every rep.

Although I am just getting started with the products I plan on working with multiple suppliers who can offer custom material at a competitive price. I am looking to make more than t-shirts and hoodies. I'm not gonna give away the full plan cause what fun would that be, but I do want to work on multiple different lifting shoes, straps, wraps, and belts on top of the clothing. Also stringers... About stringers... There are so many 'top' companies selling stringers that have a horrible fit, they are either too baggy too tight or just flat-out uncomfortable. For that I plan to examine different body types, sizes, and proportions and see what I can do to create a stringer that doesn't have your nipples hanging out constantly or is super uncomfortable to wear. There is no point in being 'fashionable' at the gym if your constantly re-adjusting your stringer--- that's just taking away from the intensity of your training. My goal is to do this all and more via the online shop and hopefully reach the point where I can start offering package products and even customized orders.

This line will represent those who have connected their mind and body, and live life on a whole different plane. This line is meant to bring together a motivated and inspired group who desires to achieve the most out of life, and to live so according to their goals. It's a line that improves performance while displaying an intense, focused style. All of the products are going to be of the best quality and all geared towards first improving gym performance and also style. Both in and out of the gym, Minding Your Body Performance Wear will be the next go-to in fitness!!

Hoodie
Here is the 'fostering physical excellence' men's hoodie in black.
  • High quality heavyweight 90/10 cotton/polyester blend
  • Comfort paired with durability
  • Drawstring hood and classic kangaroo pocket
  • Stretched cuffs for wrists & waist
  • Machine washable
  • Doesn't shrink
As with all products it is designed to give a snug, but flexible fit. It is manufactured in a way that it helps raise your body temp as you get warm and to keep every 'tight' so to speak. That doesn't mean tight as in stiff, but tight as in it will help you keep a strong chain during your lifts. It has a slick fitted design to be able to contour to your bodies proportions.  This product is my go-to warmup hoodie. I like to get the sweat and blood flow going and this hoodie fits snuggly around my frame while still having the ability to stretch and not limit my ROM in anyway! The best part is it's going for just 41 bucks and most all orders ship within 24 hours, get yours today!!!

As I said before I am working with suppliers to help shape the image of what I am looking to create without the crazy prices. My current plan is to develop a better relationship with my supplier, I want to be able to meet face to face or via skype and talk about how we can create the best fitness wear out there. I want them to know what I need and vice versa. I want to know their take on how we can improve our supply chain together and make the production for these high-quality products as inexpensive as we can.

Another product I am working on will be undergarments for posture. In today's society, most people have very poor posture. I want to create undershirts and leggings designed to help out with that. The material will be flexible but tight and will be created to straighten out your spine, remove imbalances, and better the way you sit and stand. Posture is often learned bad habits paired with tight muscles, so having attire that pushes to keep your body in balance would be extremely beneficial to improving the way someone holds themselves over time.

Posture is so important yet many people overlook, so I feel if I can create an EFFECTIVE product for that it going to help a lot of people. Who wouldn't want to look, feel, and perform better just by wearing the right clothing!!! Gym gear shouldn't be primarily to look 'cool', it should always be performance first and that is something I want to make crystal clear. Far too many times I have bought from a company that sells fitness gear and although it was stylish often they wear uncomfortable and more importantly did nothing to help improve my workout besides looking good for an IG pic (which isn't working out btw). This posture-wear line if created effectively will change the name of the game for the fitness community, and I am excited to see what can be developed to achieve it.

So when you get the chance check out the shop and see what ya like. If you have any questions or even suggestions as to how I can improve what is being offered hit my contacts page, shoot me an e-mail, whatever. I mean any suggestion too!!! It doesn't just have to be improving performance, if ya'll gotta slick design or some other product idea I really do want to hear it. One thing I've learned is being as good of a listener as you are a leader or innovator is the key to growing more and generating more ideas yourself, so let's get some thoughts flowin'!!!  Together I want us to create a brand that matches the style of the current competition, but blows the performance out of the water.
