APPROPRIATE CLOTHING

To perform at the optimum level safely during exercise, participants in YMCA programs should do the following when it comes to clothes and footwear:

  • Wear comfortable clothing that allows adequate ventilation. Clothing that is too tight or rough can irritate the skin, causing blisters, rashes or even abrasions.
  • Clothing should also be made of material that breathes to allow sweat to evaporate, which allows the body to cool.
  • Use of Rubber Exercise Suits (Sauna Suits) in the YMCA is prohibited.

Wearing vinyl or rubber suits (sauna suits) in an attempt to lose weight prevents sweat evaporation and causes the body's internal temperature to rise.

  • Inducing sweat is dangerous and it makes no contribution to fitness.
  • Wear comfortable, supportive, clean indoor footwear.

Contact Ink Young, Wellness Director, for more information on YMCA fitness policies.
