Gym stuff (am three decades out of date)

So last went to the gym erm maybe thirty years ago. Back then I was young and fit and am now post fifty, three stone over weight and a slow jog kills me.

I have joined a city centre Pure Gym which is next to student central and appears to be mainly frequented by tiny girls in tiny shorts and men in vests with big arms and tats. I have leggings my phone fits in but what do I wear on top? Any suggestions for those of us whose belly is bigger than we like to admit.

What else do I need to know? Am starting next week - how do I make this change stick?!?

M and S good move or Next have plenty. Personally I'd look for a gym where you feel you fit in more as you will be more likely to stick to it.

I normally wear a vest top indoors, but a t-shirt is also fine.

Go for a sports technical fabric rather than cotton that gets heavy with sweat. They're very easily avaliable now.
