Personal branding is no longer limited to entrepreneurs, influencers or public figures. Today, everyone builds a brand through how they show up — and the gym is one of the most powerful places to express it. Your gym fashion reflects your personality, your discipline, your confidence and your approach to fitness.

Gym fashion shapes identity. And identity shapes behaviour. At First SQUAT, we design activewear that helps women build a brand that feels strong, authentic and unmistakably theirs.
