A leotard is the most important part of a 1980s aerobics outfit. Wear matching tights and a belt for maximum impact.

2. Wear Leg Warmers

Don’t even think about doing aerobics without a pair of matching leg warmers to keep your ankles and heels nice and toasty. Knit leg warmers are best.

3. Wear a Cool ’80s Hairdo (Possibly a Mullet)

Every great aerobics workout needs a cool 1980s hairdo, like Jane Fonda’s amazing mullet.

4. If You Can’t Do a Mullet, Wear a Scrunchy

If you can’t pull off a mullet, then pull your hair back with a big scrunchy. Preferably one in a bright, wild color. Or pull half of your hair back with a scrunchy and style your bangs sky-high. Bring extra hairspray to restyle it after your workout.

5. Wear High-Cut Fitness Briefs Over Spandex Pants
