Aint nothing like a brand new year and an abundance of extra pounds to guilt and shame us into joining the gym again.

We don’t want to look terrible while attempting to use the treadmill though (our unimpressive level of fitness will already sort that out) so finding the perfect gymwear is essential. You never know what strong, hunky, burly man might be flexing his perfectly sculpted muscles around the corner – a girl always has to look her best… if not for the menfolk then for herself!

Ashley Tisdale, Kim Kardashian and Vanessa Hudgens are just some of the famous faces who have perfected the glam working out look, which is why we’ve looked to them for some inspiration. Thanks, ladies! Take a look at some of the pieces that just might get us in the mood for the gym:
