Just split my boxers while squatting!

[roy2]

So I was squatting today at the gym, and into my third set on the first rep while sticking out my butt I felt something rip/pop (I had headphones on) and could only assume that either my shorts, boxers, or both had split at my ass. I quickly racked the weight after completing that rep and reached around in back to check if my shorts had ripped, thankfully they hadn't, just my boxers had! There were like three or four other guys in the room and they acted like nothing had happened... I removed the weight and headed home. WOW! It was a short lifting session today, though I might head back later today sometime with a new set of boxers.

It was only boxers... I woulda finished the workout.

You should post this in the "Moron's at the gym" Thread... just remember to say: "Today... MY FRIEND at the gym was squatting."



Humourous... i'll throw some K your way.

Haha. Brilliant.

The same thing happened to me a few weeks back. I'm one of those guys who's glutes grow first from squatting, so it kinda had to happen sooner or later! I just kept going on with my workout after though. If my trousers had followed suit, things could have gotten ugly!

Cheers,

I've lost several boxers to this as well. Now all I wear to lift/run/play any sport is http://www.championcatalog.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce/ProductDisplay?prnbr=CHU485&cgnbr=C011000000

This happened to me once. Since then I only wear tighty-whiteys to the gym

Why didn't you finish your workout?

 

[altimus]

ive had a couple of blowouts too. so i finished the set, and freeballed it for the rest of the workout. luckily i did nothing but standing movements that day

At first I was just kind of shocked at what happened, then I figured it would be unsanitary and not fair to the other gym-goers to have just my adidas mesh shorts protecting benches from MY equipment.

After going through about 3 pairs of boxers, I decided I can no longer where them on leg day. Boxer briefs for me now.

 

[vin01]

Yeah I only wear boxer briefs in the gym now too. I've split a couple pairs doing deads.

I woulda finished the workout tho

what happened to the ole reliable jock strap and basketball type shorts? plenty of space there as well as the added protection of the strap.
