Default What to wear??

Hey guys!!

So I know this might sound like a really silly question but....

I was wondering what the bust thing to wear is while training, I mean doing vaults and gaps in jeans doesn't sound like best thing to start off with, is it just like loose stuff like traccy's and a t-shirt or something??

Oh and are you guys going training this Saturday?

Cheers, Josh!!

Yup, training this saturday for sure. Weather looks okay.
And a good set of shoes is a good idea, anything with a good grip, pretty lightweight, and comfortable. Other than that, Jeans are not good. No maneouvrability Tracksuit bottoms and a tshirt being the best option.

Joggers are really good too, even less restrictive than trackies I just wore shorts for my first couple of weeks but now have a pair of joggers. T-shirt is fine, though nothing too baggy as you don't want it to catch on anything.

Pair of grippy shoes is a very good idea. Some people recommend actually doing some barefoot training too, it helps you to learn proper landing technique; if you land wrong even on little jumps in bare feet, you will soon feel it! You really want to learn to land and roll properly ASAP to stop yourself developing any joint problems later
