physical fitness jokes

What clothing styles can accent my physical fitness but still be appropriate?
I’m interviewing for jobs that require physical agility/strength, jobs that often tend to employ large men. I’m a short woman who looks skinny in most kinds of clothes. Most people don’t assume I’m very strong. In actuality, I’m physically fit, and a little buff, but this doesn’t show unless I’m in workout clothes or a swimsuit. Are sleeveless shirts appropriate to ANY interview, or is there a sleeve style that will highlight my toned arms? What kind of clothes will highlight my muscle tone and physical condition while still being appropriate for a job interview? [Oh and I don't want to look SLUTTY, either.]
It seems like most clothing out there other than workout clothes, is meant for women with one kind of build… those “cap sleeves” for example are a joke because they’re too tight on my arms, and a lot of pants out there end up too tight on my thighs yet too baggy around the waist!
For a job interview, maybe you should wear a knee length skirt– you can show off your calves without looking trashy.
As for a shirt, I think anything that looks nice and fits well will do. Since this is an interview, I would wear a jacket or blazer. If you don’t have access to anything like this, a sweater would work too.
Don’t worry as much about LOOKING muscular, just make sure you mention how strong you are in the interview. They’ll often ask you about your hobbies– mention you love working out, tell them how much you can bench press
Good luck on your interview!
