I've been thinking about getting some leggings or yoga pants and a cute hoodie or shirt to go running in. I'd wear my wig but probly wouldn't need makeup or very little since there's not a lot of people in my area. Any thoughts?

That sounds cute! Can you get cute running shoes, too?

The beauty is that I wear fila skeletoes when I run. They're toe shoes. In blue but they could easily go either way.
I did it this morning. Slipped into a pair of black spandex leggings and a jogging suit jacket but left the jogging pants in the car and went out for a run wearing the tights visible. Only went for a short run in the park. Ran by a few others but no one seemed to notice. Next time I will go for a longer run. I loved it!
working out dressed is fun...but any GOOD workout requires alot of sweat ...i wouldnt recommend a wig OR makeup....just sweat...but if it makes you happy go for it...just maybe get a wig you plan on sweating in. Dressing and working out is very inspiring .
Short shorts and capris are great I have and wear both but the single greatest thing is the skort. I have a pleated tennis style one and the feeling of the skirt bouncing off your legs makes working out a real pleasure.
The best I can manage is a fast walk, but I usually wear my wig and breastforms while walking. Go for it.
I workout at home at least 3 times a week and always wear a sports bra and either short shorts or spandex volley shorts, I also have yoga pants. It is very inspiring for me to workout in such attire.
I've have walked in a local park several times in outfits too but never in makeup. I do wear a ballcap so that's how I can go without. I say go for it for sure
They take some getting use to because they use different muscles than regular sneakers but I love them.
And thanks. I will definitely use a wig that I don't mind sweating in.aybe I'll get a nice wig so I can use the current for working out. I think it'll be. Great way to work on going out dressed.
Do it, why not?
I'm going to go to a yoga class next week and I can tell you right now that I will not be wearing male yoga attire!
Now its winter, I've taken to running in a sports bra+femme sports top, with a jacket over it. I usually wear running tights anyway so that wasn't a problem. Finding a female tight that doesn't slide to the middle of my bum when running is a problem. I picked up some tops at Old Navy that could pass for male or female in black although I did get one set in purple and brown. So far no one has said anything about that. I have to wear a Toque (beanie) and sometimes a buff because it's so damned cold (0F) so a wig is out of the question. But the most interesting thing is that I've started to wear breast forms when running and the first time I did that I was super aware and felt very conspicuous. Nowadays I just go but found that not all sports bra/tops hold forms very well. It helps that I've lost some weight and my old bigger wind shell running jackets now fit nicely over the forms hiding it somewhat but not entirely. I've had to use smaller forms but that is ok as the bigger ones just get in the way of running. Now I just to find some nice shoes in a nice girly colour.
When I work out at home - which for me is pretty much hopping on the elliptical for a while - I love to dress en femme. Some short comfy shorts, a sports bra, and a tank top and I'm good to go.
Zimri - I really like what you said about it - looking forward to the body you are trying to create
I always work out dressed. It's also a comfort thing too. Yoga pants are really comfy to workout in and a sports bra is a necessity for me if I'm running or doing aerobics . Just look at men's workout attire vs women's. What looks like it would be more comfortable to wear? I skip the makeup and pull my hair back into a ponytail and start sweating.
During warmer seasons, I ride my bike 7 miles every morning-always wearing a sports bra, running capris, and bright neon ankle socks. In the winter it's the treadmill in a running skirt and bright pink sneakers. It makes a boring workout much more fun, and something to look forward to.
Life's too short to not be enjoyed! Live each day to the fullest!
My workouts tend to be quite intense and as such working out en femme is not an option as I would be sweating too much to maintain anything like a wig or make-up. In the end I would just be a guy at the gym wearing women's workout clothes and as this is not my thing I prefer to workout "en boy".

For a light workout what you envisage is quite alright.
Others have commented on other aspects of working out so I say give it a try without too much severity.
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
I have always thought about wearing nude pantyhose under short running shorts to go for a run. What a great idea running in leggings since they do look very similar to running tights such as under armour or nike. I work in a casino in Atlantic City and love the idea of running at night like that after work.
Working out while dressed is fun, but I find it difficult to keep my wig on while doing the stretching, bending and sit ups routines. In the end, I had to leave it out as it was also too hot!

Maybe at home, but not at the gym. Underdressing might be an option, but I won't shower there, tho.
At home, but no wig.
I've worn women's tank tops to the gym, and I've worn pantyhose under shorts when I was out walking or running.

I've just bought my femme workout kit, but for home use only. Couple of skorts and jog bottoms , t-shirts (in Pink of course) and a Box top.
As others have said, don't wear a wig or makeup, too sweaty by far. My girl kit is my inspiration to achieve my desired weight, so I'll settle for baldy me if it means I look lean and mean later.
My only problem is the skorts have no damn pockets, must be why the girls put their tennis balls up the leg? . I use a Samsung S4 for my music and I can't just hold the damn thing when bouncing around. Need a waist bag or something for it.

Note that there are arm bands made for this, however.

I've gone running many times at night, no one seems to notice particularly. I don't make eye contact and just keep moving.
I've gotten to play tennis a few times with friends as I love tennis wear but long hair and boobs are not an advantage and I perspire too much.
