14 Fun Costume Ideas Using Your Workout Clothes

Grab yourself a wig, some short shorts, and a tank, and you already have the makings of a Richard Simmons costume. Carry a portable radio with you on Halloween that plays hits from the '50s — you'll have everyone Sweatin' to the Oldies!

Spend a little time searching a secondhand clothing shop and your garage. Before you know it, you'll soon have the makings of a cyclist costume.

Cover yourself in medals and go as Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps. Novelty medals are cheap and easy to find, or you can make your own with ribbon and gold craft paper. Don a spandex bodysuit, or wear black leggings with a red, white, and blue jacket or Olympic-themed shirt. Finish the look with a swim cap and goggles.
