Sports

Although women compete in just about every sport there is - it would be fair to say some are more popular than others. Although if you think we're missing your sport then drop us an email and we'll sort it out.

So what are the most popular sports amongst women?

Running

 

One of the best cardio workouts you can hope for. Most people are put off running due to painful memories of cross country runs at school causing wheezing fits and painful chests. Well its not all that bad and if you take it slow at first you'll grow to love it. We've got a good selection of running trainers, tops, shorts and trousers for your running needs.

Yoga

 

This activity has been around for literally thousands of years and is popular across all ages and sexes. We have a huge range of yoga gear ready to see in store.

Pilates

 

Similar to Pilates in some respects due to its focus on body mechanics and precise movement. This was first invented by Joseph Pilates as a form of rehabilitation. Its popular with both sexes now but is hugely popular amongst women. We have a range of clothing suitable for pilates.
