Shop Women's Rest Day Gym Clothes at Myprotein
Women's rest day gym clothes are built for the days between training — when your body needs a break but your wardrobe doesn't have to suffer. This collection covers everything from wide-strap sports bras and cotton-rich leggings to oversized hoodies and relaxed joggers, all designed to keep you comfortable from morning to evening.
Every piece in the range is cut for ease of movement, made from soft fabrics, and finished with the kind of detail that makes getting dressed feel effortless. Whether you're running errands, stretching out at home, or heading to a low-key session, rest day clothing that actually works hard is right here.
Who This Collection Is For
This range is for women who train consistently and want their off-days to feel just as considered as their gym kit. If you spend time and thought on your workout wardrobe, rest day clothing should meet the same standard — not just an afterthought.
It's also ideal for women who want versatile pieces that transition between lounging, light activity, and everyday life without missing a beat. Soft waistbands, breathable fabrics, and relaxed cuts mean these aren't just gym-adjacent — they work wherever your day takes you.
When to Wear Women's Rest Day Gym Clothes
Rest day clothing earns its keep across the full day. Pair a bralette with oversized joggers for a morning stretch or yoga flow, or throw on a sweatshirt and leggings for a coffee run that still looks intentional. These are pieces designed to be lived in, not just lounged in.
They also work beyond the obvious. A rest day hoodie is just as at home layered over gym kit on the way to a session as it is worn solo on a slow Sunday. Wide-waistband leggings move with you whether you're foam rolling at home or picking up pace on a walk.
Key Features
Cotton-Rich Fabrics
The leggings and sweatshirts in this range lean into cotton-rich construction for a soft, natural feel against the skin. That means comfort that doesn't scratch, pill, or feel stiff — just easy, breathable wear from the moment you pull them on.
Wide Waistbands and Relaxed Cuts
Wide waistbands sit smoothly without digging in, making these leggings and joggers genuinely comfortable for extended wear. Relaxed fits across the sweatshirts, hoodies, and T-shirts give you room to move without looking shapeless.
Seamless Construction
Several pieces in the range use seamless construction to eliminate the kind of rubbing and irritation that comes from traditional seams. The result is a second-skin feel that works especially well for longer stretches of wear.
Thoughtful Finishing Details
From embroidered logo details on the sports bras to colour options that range from soft neutrals to muted tones like Smokey Purple and Cactus, the range is put together with care. These aren't generic basics — they're cohesive pieces that sit well together and work as a wardrobe in their own right.

FAQs
What are women's rest day gym clothes made from?
Most pieces in the range are cotton-rich, which gives them a soft, breathable feel ideal for all-day wear. Some styles, like the seamless bralette, use stretch fabrics engineered to sit close to the skin without restriction. The exact fabric composition varies by product, so it's worth checking the individual product page if you have specific material preferences.
How do I choose the right size in rest day leggings and hoodies?
Myprotein's size guide is the best starting point — you'll find it on each product page with measurements for waist, hips, and chest. For the leggings, the wide waistband tends to be forgiving across sizes, but if you're between sizes, sizing up gives a more relaxed fit. Oversized styles like the hoodie and sweatshirt are intentionally cut with extra room, so your usual size will give you that relaxed look without being oversized on a smaller frame.
Are these pieces suitable for light workouts as well as rest days?
Absolutely. The leggings and sports bras in the range move well enough for yoga, stretching, Pilates, and low-intensity training. They're not designed for high-impact sessions, but for anything that calls for comfort and flexibility over compression, they're a solid choice.
Who designed the women's rest day gym clothes range?
The range is designed by Myprotein's in-house design team, who develop the fits, fabrics, and colourways from scratch. The goal is always to build pieces that work as hard off the gym floor as on it — practical, wearable, and built to last.
How should I care for my rest day gym clothes?
Always check the care label on each individual piece, as instructions can vary by fabric. As a general rule, washing on a cool cycle and avoiding tumble drying will keep cotton-rich fabrics in the best shape for longer. Turn garments inside out before washing to preserve colours and any logo details.
What's the difference between the sports bra and the seamless bralette?
The sports bra — like the Rest Day Wide Strap Sports Bra — offers more structure with wide straps and a more defined shape, making it better suited to light activity as well as everyday wear. The Seamless Bralette is softer and more low-profile, designed primarily for comfort and lounging rather than movement. If you want something that crosses between gym and daily wear, the sports bra is the stronger option; for pure comfort at home, the bralette wins.
Do the leggings have pockets?
Pocket availability varies by style, so check the individual product listing for details. The product descriptions call out key features including storage, so it's quick to confirm before you buy.
Can I mix and match pieces from the rest day range?
The range is built with cohesion in mind, so pieces sit well together across colours and styles. Neutral tones like Grey Marl, Black, and Light Pink work across multiple combinations, while accent colours like Smokey Purple and Cactus add variety without clashing. Mixing a Rest Day bra with Rest Day leggings in the same colourway gives you a put-together look without any effort.
