It is forbidden to borrow longer dresses in church and to wear them to confession.” Women’s heads must be covered. “The Church is the house of God. It is forbidden for men to enter with bare arms or in shorts. It is forbidden for women to enter in trousers, without a veil on their head, in short clothing, low necklines, sleeveless or immodest dresses.”

– Signs on the doors of San Giovanni Rotondo

This is the Church of Padre Pio.

Now the question is, is this a real quote from when he was alive?

So if man does exercise like lifting weights or cardio like jogging lr cycling should he be wearing pants? Sounds very 'hot'.

A dress cannot be called decent which is cut deeper than two fingers breadth under the pit of the throat; which does not cover the arms at least to the elbows; and scarcely reaches a bit beyond the knees. Furthermore, dresses of transparent materials are improper.” (The Cardinal Vicar of Pope Pius XI).

Does this mean the ladies need to have fabric on the elbow joint/pit or just before the joint?

I don't think it needs to be scrutinized that much.."to" can mean covering to where the elbow begins, so not necessarily covering it
