I mainly use lounge pants or track pants with a t-shirt or sleeveless shirt.

I am about to buy some new gear and was looking at options. Main thing for me is no shorts. I also saw something called "Compression Shorts" but that seems like it would....erm "cramp my style"

Any ideas?

    I generally wear running shorts and a tank, either compression or tech.I have some nylon pants I wear when doing hack squats and some running pants and compression long-sleeve shirts for the cold, but otherwise I wear as little as possible.

    I like basketball style shorts mainly because they don't restrict movement for Sumo squats or deadlifts the way pants can. If I do wear pants I like simple nylon jogging pants with no liner.

    I really like the loose gear under armour for shirts but Old Navy has a line of fitness clothing that is made the same way and it's great for half the price.

    Basketball or running shorts, a t-shirt or tank top and usually some form of minimalist shoe - either Merrell Barefoots or Five Fingers. I'm definitely not a fashion template.

    Regular, loose basketball or soccer type shorts, spandex or stretchy compression type boxer briefs, a Nike DriFit Shirt (love them) and Nike Pegasus 28 shoes...for the most part. I also use the Nike DriFit socks a lot.

    I wear mainly just a tee shirt and training shorts from a brand called Hylete. Highly recommend their training apparel

    I ended up getting a bunch of track pants with mesh so they are not crazy hot with some athletic sleeveless shirts.

    Shorts, t-shirt, Chuck Taylors.

    Going to start wearing a hoodie with the hood up while heavy lifting though, just to keep my *kitten* hot and sweating more.
