Has anyone ever ripped their tights/compression shorts etc during something like squats or other exercises?

I haven't yet, but terrified of this happening haha. I do legs and glutes 2-3x week, so its a possibility. The ones I usually wear are black or dark grey and I have a variety of materials (not really see through). I've been keeping extra pants in my gym bag now though.

    I don't worry about that as much as I worry about my sports bra; either the clip holding the strap to the band or the hook and eye breaking. I have an extra in my bag at all times!

    I ripped boxers doing weighted lunges. I was amped b/c it was a sign my quads had grown.

    I stopped to make sure I hadn't torn my shorts. Once I realized it was my boxers I kept working out like nothing happened.
