    I cringe at all the going commando in here. Please make sure you wipe down the equipment you're using.

    I'm actually really surprised at how many people go commando or are in a thong at the gym
    I've been debating it recently because of chaffing/bruising I get when running (not really chub rub but more underwear digging into my skin and abrading it)

    Curious though, has anyone had any issue with UTI's when going commando or wearing a thong?

    I've made my strong feelings about my thin M&S granny knickers fully protecting me from all my hand and back sweat on the bench known in a similar post on this topic.

    But not washing clothes, especially sports bras? Bleurgh. I'm rather endowed in this area and my bra is usually in a worse state than my pants. The thought of not washing it makes me feel itchy.

    I cannot believe how many people are going commando at the gym. I seriously sweat too much for that and need another layer to contain it. Not to mention that my wobbly bits aren't generally content with compression shorts. I wear granny panties. Thongs cut off my circulation, boy shorts fall down. Hipsters are ok in a pinch, but more likely than not I am rocking some big girl briefs under my workout clothes. And, no, I don't go to the gym to look good, but if I feel like if I am not comfy people might stare at me and it throws me off. I had braces on my legs when I was little and people made fun of me in gym class, and I am still very self-conscious about it.

    Who wears panties with workout pants? You can buy the kind that you don't need any. No lines, no ride up, no show. It's all good :-)

    Today I learned that some people don't wear underwear to the gym and I am deeply disturbed :\

    Who wears underwear under workout/cycling pants?!?

    NONE! and I'm pretty sure that's why most workout bottoms have liners in them....

    underarmour and I believe it is champion have no show, no ride, moisture wicking, panties they come in boy cut, bikini and thong.

    I like having that extra layer between me and whatever might be on the gym equipment.

    I haven't had a UTI since I was in HS. And I wear shorts that come with a built in liner or I wear nothing at all. I've never had an issue.

    It's actually recommended you DON'T wear any type of underwear under cycling shorts. I mean actual cycling shorts, not spandex that you buy and call cycling shorts. Then again, even if I'm only going to go ride in my normal shorts I won't wear underwear either.

    I never wear underwear for my workouts, either. They're uncomfortable. If I'm doing an intense leg workout they ride up in places you don't want them sticking.

    I'm mostly confused at how people think that this ISN"T happening.

    people who like to? not everyone jumps at the chance to leave their underwear home.
