Underwear issues when squatting (or lunging)..

[Seashell]

Okay.. I've tried the traditional pair of panties.. always gives me a wedgie.

Tried a thong..that didn't feel nice, and also required "adjustments" between sets.

One can only retrieve the panties so many times...it's becoming embarassing. Damn mirrors everywhere too, nowhere to hide.

What are you ladies wearing to squat? Boy shorts? Commando?

Someone help.

 

[RottenWillow]

The feeling of panties riding up on me during squats is one of my major peeves. I always just wear short jogging shorts with no underwear at all.

Camel toe (pardon my frankness) isnt a
consideration for me since I workout alone at home.

 

[velvett]

Commando.


Seriously.




That or a pair of dance tights with the feet cut off - just wear them under sweats, yoga pants, shorts or what ever you train in.

 

[Seashell]

Thanks for the responses ladies..

Commando it is.



Note to self: Check all seams beforehand.

 

[smoknjilly]

hahaha you just reminded me when once i had on some new low rise terry pants - went to do squats and my whole damn ass came out!

so for now - i wear adidas type pants commando - works the best

 

[boscoe wilson]

I always wear a thong in the gym...I'm one of those that cannot stand a wedgie...if I get one, I feel the urge to take care of it immediately!

 

[Seashell]

LOL Jilly, that's what I was thinking... my pants have done that before, but just flashed the underwear which isn't so bad, but still an unwanted distraction at the bottom of a squat.

I'll have to make sure the drawstring is REAL tight if I'm going commando.

I always wear a thong too... doesn't bother me when I squat or lunge.

 

[jenscats5]

I wear panties & adjust -- I hate thongs & I don't think I could go commando....maybe in the summer.

 

[boscoe wilson]

I can't wear regular panties anymore...short boyshorts, but except for when I was pregnant, I don't think I've worn briefs or bikini's since I was in my early 20's.

 

[Stacy]

what the heck are commando's. Sorry never heard of the term.

 

[PinkPanther]

I prefer thongs also. I wear them pretty much everyday for every activity, so they don't bother me at all during my workouts.

Stacy, "commando" wearing nothing...

 

[thatasianchick]

I wear thongs. I went commando once and felt naughty during my workout...lol..

 

[RottenWillow]

Seems that Stacy and I were the only ones not cool enough to know already what the heck "commando" means.

 

[velvett]

You haven't lived until you've done walking lunges panty free.

 

[jenscats5]

Going "commando" is when you go without any undies on at all.....

 

[superqt4u2nv]

I feel naughty when I go commando but it really is the most comfortable for working out.

 

[wend]

I don't think I could go commando. More power to you, though.

I wear bikinis with decent coverage...but they have to be a cotton/lycra blend. They stay in place better AND wic sweat better than all cotton. I've never had a problem with wedgies during squats or lunges.

 

[smb_69]

ok - I have to say this is a good threat to read -

I think I want to join the gym where all of you ladies are going "commando".

 

[TheProject]

Okay, village idiot, wandering in again...

What about using men's boxer briefs?

 

[Seashell]

Project, those would be all bunchy and visible through my gym pants..

Or did you mean JUST the boxer briefs...no pants?

LOL...I spose you *could* wear just those.

How tight are your gym pants?

I guess it would depend on what you wore over them. Most of the girls that train with us wear baggy shorts or pants, and I'd have no clue what they have on underneath them. In that case, I'd guess going commando would make sense.

I like squatting with boxer briefs, but I've never tried commando.

 

[Seashell]

My pants aren't spandex or anything, but boxers would be noticeable I'm sure...

What I think you should do, is take a poll. Ask all the girls you train with, what they're wearing underneath there? Then report back. Also count the number of slaps you get.

 

[Scotsman]

Interesting thread. Most girls I know go thong or commando. I don't put too much thought into since I don't think most people are trying to catch a glimpse of anything when I am squatting.

Though I agree with project boxerbriefs rule for squats.

Cheers,
Scotsman

 

[jenscats5]

My gym pants are like tights or leggings -- basically spandex pants. I couldn't wear mens boxer briefs underneath -- they would be too visible.

 

[Sebby]

Funny how all the guys are showing up on this thread. As a guy, I wear boxer briefs for anything I do. I was doing power squats, and going as deep as I could. On rep #4 I ripped them - on my right leg, the elastic that goes around my thigh ripped it when fully flexed. That was funny, my training partner, spotting me was wondering what the hell the noise was. Funny shit. Good luck girls. Embarrasing stories = Karam for Sebby please.

 

[Pamela]

Thongs or nothing.

 

[starfish]

I always go to the gym in running shorts (built in undies) and a t-shirt.

 

[Gymgurl]

I prefer felmale boxer-briefs for this kinda thing...sometimes commando....but the boxers pretty much stay in place when squating

 

[wend]

Ack! This thread is jinxed! After saying I never had a problem with wedgies, I went to squat yesterday with my favorite pair of undies on, and they got all jammed up my crack! Ugh!

 

[Seashell]

Wend.. that's always the way!

 

[bluepeter]

Thread of the month.

The thought of you fine ladies doing lunges commando warms my heart

 

[wend]

Well, it wasn't too bad...I did a little wiggle dance to get them back in place. Better than picking, right?

(And yes, Blue, I'm sure this is good reading...hubby says he won't be able to watch me work now without thinking about my panties...)

Very true, I'll never be able to watch a fine lookin woman working out the same way........is she?......

 

[milo hobgoblin]

I dont know why... but thread is making me harder than chinese calculus

 

[bluepeter]

Me too, must be the ladies that admitted feeling 'naughty' when going commando

Okay, I *did* ask two of them, and they both said the same thing, that regular women's underwear sucks, but said that men's boxer briefs worked great.

No slaps yet.

 

[Seashell]

LOL!

Thanks Project, at least we all agree that regular panties suck.

 

[MsBeverlyHills]

thongs sometimes- only not w/hardtails-- theyre so low rise that the thong rides up over the pants...too sleazy looking for squats, but ok on the eliptical....haha

 

[jenscats5]

I bought a pair of UnderArmour shorts today, the tight-ish ones & they are short-y short shorts & somewhat low rise on me......so I may wear them as my "undies" under shorts, etc so no one sees my pink with green alligator panties! LOL
