    I have this issue too, makes me grateful to be able to workout from home a fair bit. A thick Sports Bra and two shirts is what I do on chilly days though :wink:

    Personally, I appreciate all the visual stimulation available to motivate me to workout longer.

    I have this problem unless I wear a bra with those removable pads. Those seem to be substantial enough to block the view.

    I usually don't care that they're showing when I work out...as long as they aren't googly eyed.

    Exactly!!!

    Yes, make sure they're properly aligned. Lol!

    What is the problem? And what gym do you go to?

    Struggling to see why this is a problem. It's not a surprise to anyone that you have nipples after all. Nor that they stick out at times.

    This.

    Who gives a s***t?

    You're not at the gym topless right? I don't think anyone notices or cares. And if some creep does notice or care. Again . . . who gives a s***t?

    It can be quite distracting to be obviously oogled during a workout. I also happen to be one of those women who does not want to be approached or flirted with, and some men would see that sort of thing as an opportunity (mind you not very decent men, but let's be honest not everyone is decent).

    I've come to terms that my gym turns me on...lol...i may wear a good bra, and shirt over it and a sweatshirt for the cooler mornings....but they still stand at attention!!

    doesn't bother me any that they are always hard.

    I wear 2 super strength sports bras AND a tank with a built in bra when I work out...there is NO HIDING my Double D's!!!! :blushing:

    And my feeling is if you don't like it, don't look!

    I have the same issue..I really don't care any more. Hopefully every person at the gym has nipples. :smile: If people are staring at you then that is their problem. I used to be embarrassed about it but honestly life is just too short and I have bigger issues to worry about. Now if you want to be really embarrassed you can do what I did for over a year and wear see-through pants! I didn't realized at the time that my overpriced workout pants were completely see through when I bent over..everyone at my gym has seen my *kitten* so I am not too worried about my nipples :laugh:

    Size of your boobs has nothing to do with it. It all depends on the sensitivity of your nipples.


    I'm pretty much perma-nippin' 24/7, which is why I wear a padded bra. But in regards to working out, the people around me can just deal with it. So far, there haven't been any complaints.

    I intentionally make mine hard. I never have to put my plates away after lifting.

    I don't think most ppl pay attention to it as its normal, however I personally as a male of the human species put bandaids over mine because if mine get hard its due to chaffing during a workout and hurts for several days after if I don't. Do what you need to for your workout to be successful is what I'm getting at I suppose

    I'm the same way. I have to wear one from target that has a thicker liner in it. It's just like under armour, in black. I'm sorry but I forgot the brand name. I'm sure you could find it though.
    ETA: The brand is Champion and it's a racer back type that gives you really good support too, if you need it. :)

    I'm perma nippin' too, which I forgot to mention! Hubs doesn't mind and no one else seems to either!
