    I wear cotton undies, stretchy workout pants and a t-shirt. I am not at the gym to impress anyone, I am there to make a difference for me!

    Nope! Sure don't. I don't when I wear my bike shorts for biking, nor do I when I wear my pants for running.

    Cotton thong, sports bra, yoga pants and a tank. Unless I am hot, then the tank goes. I have a work out skirt with shorts/briefies built in and that I have to wear regular undies with, because I am a firm believer that you never wear ANY kind of skirt with out underwear!

    Never. I tend to wear some version of running tights during all of my workouts. Hate the way panty lines look, love the way no underwear feels... :bigsmile:

    Mmmm granny panties. Nice, full coverage cotton panties. I switch into them when I change into gym clothes and out of them when I change again.
    They really aren't sexy, at all, but they don't ride up my butt and they offer a little bit more between me and the horrible, awful things that I'm sure are living on the cycle seat at the gym.

    I am there to workout... could care less if I have panty lines. Yes I wear panties... Couldn't imagine the sweat marks if I didn't!

    Totally agree! I may wear thongs or boyshorts, just depends on what I wore to work that day. I don't have 'special' workout panties but I'm always in some. I hit the gym after work and of course, I put on clean ones after I shower. If I workout in the morning (wknds), I change those underwear after I shower.

    I wear a thong, not because of panty lines, just because I find it the most comfortable. I don't like fullbacks bc they move around and I find it super uncomfortable and distracting.

    I was actually unaware that people workout commando

    Yes, I do. Anything else would be uncomfortable I think?!

    If I'm at home, it's just a bra, panties and HRM. If I'm at the gym, then yes, I usually do, although I have gone without in the past. But only a couple of times and not when I was doing strength training on a machine...

    I prefer not to but my husband insists that I do. I do not like panty lines or strings. This upsets my husband. (:

    I wear thongs everyday no matter what... I can't stand panty lines at the gym or out and about... LOL... At night I wear boy shorts....

    Also, shouldn't we all be wiping down the machines after use regardless of what kind of panties (or lack of panties) you wear to the gym??? I know I do... I can't stand when I see people get off a machine or weight bench and NOT wipe it down.. Can we say "gross"!!!

    I have been wearing cotton panties but to be honest they are soaking wet when I am done my cardio and then I have to sit down on the benches to to my weights and leave sweat marks, so not sure what the solution is.

    After when I go home and stay in my workout clothes for a hour or so, the wet cotton panties are cold and disgusting and still wet.... so I am considering buying some Under Armour wicking panties... all of my clothing wicks except my underwear.... that needs to change soon.

    Going commando would be fine by me but I need the extra layer to absorb the sweat.... yuck ...

    Yes I do...and the thought of others in the gym NOT wearing and then sweating profusely make me EVEN more determined to be sure I wipe down benches BEFORE I use them

    Jen :wink:

    Since I go to the gym in the morning before work, I wear the same underwear I wore the previous day, then I come home, shower, & change into a fresh pair for the day. In the evening when I do 30 Day shred at home, I also wear underwear or maybe a thong. I think going commando would be so gross given how much I sweat.

    I thought I was the only one who didnt. I dont :blushing: . I dont like that wet diaper feel when I workout and sweat in that area. After your done your soaked and start to get cold. If you have workout shorts a sports bra or workout pants they have a different material that soaks up the sweat so you dont feel as wet when you workout. I feel weird sharing that.

    Try a dry fit panty like Under Armour or Champion (found at Target). I paid $20 for 1 pair of Under Armour & it's the best investment I could have made. At the time I exercised 3 days a week so I had time to throw them in the wash before the next time. The only thing is that I didn't like the boy shorts as they rolled up on the legs some so I would suggest a brief. Since then, I've found some New Balance briefs that I really like & they were more affordable.

    this is the craziest thing I've ever heard of. The ONLY thing I would NOT wear underwear for is a bath. Yes I wear underwear. NOBODY wants old ladies runnning around without underwear. the very idea.
    I also brush my teeth, put on anti-perspirant & run a brush thru my hair. I've been doing this since 2nd grade. Not once in all that time did I leave the house without underwear- and if there is a merciful God I never will have to.
    and thanks cause NOW I'll be thinking about the people who are too near me who might NOT be wearing enough fabric between THEM AND ME ish

    and I don't know about anyone else but commando in those lycra capris or shorts when you have a big *kitten* (of course working on that) is not going to be the smoothest more attractive thing hahahaha.....

    I don't think you should be commando unless you have a perfect, dimple and cellulite free *kitten*..... people can see that stuff when you don't have underwear on, not sure if people realize that... ???

    once at the gym i saw a girl that wasn't wearing undies
    before you get the wrong idea, i usually don't even stare at girls at the gym but i turned and the light reflected good on her black pants
