The idea of working out in a bodysuit seems a little odd…and totally ’80s aerobics class.
I get it; I used to think so, too.
Now I can officially say I’m happy that the retro fitness staple is making a comeback.

For some reason, I feel way more confident in these than I normally do in asports braandleggings.
They’re incredibly comfortable and work for a variety of activities fromyogato dance cardio to weight lifting.
They’re not hard to get into, plus they save you time and laundry.
Also, probably my favorite part: They’re surprisingly flattering.
If you do need more support, you’re able to simply add a sports bra underneath.
And then there’s always my go-to move to just roll up the legs.
Sometimes bodysuits don’t have legs, and that was where I drew the line.
Here are my nine favorite bodysuits that I’ve added into myworkout(and hangout) rotation.
The soft fabric has some Spandex in it, so it stretches, but it’s not super compressive.
The single strap means there are fewer areas to readjust; plus, the openness is nice and airy.

This fabric is fantastic.
It’s skin-tight, so be prepared, but it’s perfect for any and all levels of exercise.
This one changed my mind, though.
I just might not choose to sweat so much in it next time and stick with a barre class.
It’s black (a New York City style staple) plus the adjustable straps are a total game-changer.
(Why don’t all bodysuits have them!?)
