Science says there’s a reason to splurge on a cool pair of printed leggings or a stylish tank top: It can actually help motivate you to work out. For real!

It’s called “enclothed cognition,” which is a fancy way of explaining the mental shift you experience when you wear certain clothing. One study suggests clothing can influence your behavior and attitude because it carries symbolic meaning (think: an actress putting on a costume to get into character). If what you wear can subconsciously change the way you act, simply slipping on gym clothes can give you that extra push to bust out a quick work out.

So gear up for the New Year with these 13 items—they’ll give you that mental boost you need to break a sweat in 2017.
