Color psychology is nothing new, but many people only think about it in terms of home decor while certain hues can actually help to motivate you at the gym. So, do you know the color you should be wearing while you're pumping iron? The answer is orange. 

According to Jeannie Mai, who hosts "How Do I Look?" on the Style Network, "Orange is said to stimulate enthusiasm and creativity... [and] symbolizes vitality and endurance." Leslie Harrington, executive director of the Color Association of The United States, agrees, stating that "orange is much more of a casual, active color -- it’s big in active wear."

Not only is orange an energy boosting color according to many alternative medicine practices, but it reportedly also reduces self-consciousness.
