    Pull the padding from the cups out of an old bra and shove them over your nipples in your sports bra. Job done :)

    I have this problem and used to getting bullied at High School about it. I have to have slight padding in all my bras and that helps. Also wearing black tops helps too xx

    My wife wears those newer sports bras with removable padding, I've never seen her nipples poking through.

    A blokes point of view.... I use the gym, i cant say i have noticed this on any* of the women there. As stated once i get going i really cant be bothered whats happening around me and i try not to get distracted anyway. Im normally looking at the machine im using and got my ipod in. Most men anyway will have a certain level of maturity anyway. If they do notice they just look away!

    *The only time i may have noticed is during a boxercise class, but then i am less than two feet away from them and in my path of vision as i target the pads.

    Heh, I love that you specified it was a problem with your own :P

    Anyway, as with men finding they pitch a tent down south, it's mostly down to increased heart rate and circulation. Nothing to worry about.

    Can't say I've noticed it on any women that attend my gym, and I wouldn't *care* if I did.

    totally have that issue. I'm sure people dont care, but that doesn't mean I'm not feeling awkward about my nipples all out there, lol. I've even sometimes tried to poke em in, haha. I've been looking into the new padded sports bras.

    I have this problem when out running. It's particularly uncomfortable because one place I run has some construction going on, and some of those guys are blatant about their oggling (to the guy who said no big deal, you have no idea). I've found the Lululemon removable cups work well to cover the issue. I just slip them into any sports bra. Lately I've been putting them into my soft bras for work. I'm sure you can get something similar anywhere.

    I get erections when I run on the treadmill, so some pointy nips are nothing to fret about.

    I have this same issue! I bought those sillicone nipple covers from Amazon and they work fairly well. The other thing I have done was bought padded sports bra's and I also wear dark colors so no one will notice. Some days I just say, whatever, and go.

    This happened me today, haha, I was a little conscious, and one guy definitely noticed but...there are people who would pay for what I got going on in that region, so...more power to my glorious nipples (and yours)!

    Sometimes I get those on the bikes. I don't do spinning anymore for that reason.


    As far as nipples go, everyone's got them. If you feel flattered by the occasional look checking you out, don't fret, otherwise you could try covering them up. But being "chesty" as you put it will likely get a few glances anyway. Lotta testosterone in gyms...

    I get the extreme opposite.
    Mine goes into turtle mode.

    And as for the nipples, the guys there to work out are either not going to notice or not care.
    The guys there to hook up (you know who they are) unfortunately will be looking.

    Me, I admit I was watching someone in the gym the other night while on the treadmill.
    It was the dude with the monster arms & I watching to see what exercises he was doing for them. LOL!

    @ shaw, lol thanks! That does help. I am sure everyone is a little self conscious about something of course. Just is something so silly and awkward especially when you have to ask someone to help you with something like adjusting a machine that is stuck or too heavy.

    A trainer friend of mine once told me "if you think everyone in the gym is looking at you, then you're obviously self obsessed, they didn't all get great bodies by standing around watching you."

    This was in response to my jumbo sized kardasian plumber butt hanging out all the time :p. hope it helps you lol
