Do you wear different underwear when working out? I am not a big fan of bikini bottoms as they aren't comfortable and leave lines. Sorry if TMI but I wear thongs because I find them to be much more comfortable, but while working out they just don't work. Any gals wear/really like a certain style/brand for working out??

    I never wear thongs. They aren't comfortable at all to me. It's a massive wedgie to me personally. I like wearing boy shorts when I work out, and I can rock some bikini bottoms if necessary.

    I can't do thongs, g-strings, or granny panties during a workout or in everyday life.

    My OBGYN told me thongs are awful for working out in..she said she deals with at least 5 women a year with rashes "up there"..she reccomended cotton bikinis.

    Probably TMI, but I don't wear underwear while working out. If they're not there, they can't creep up and make me uncomfortable while I'm finding endorphin bliss.

    I hate the lines, so I wear what I wore to work- usually Hanky Panky thongs (which are super comfy)

    I tend to do the same! If I wear normal panties, i get this weird chaffing in the small concave where my thigh meets my hip.

    Oh goodness, the thought of wearing thongs makes me cringe (hate, hate, hate), but working out in them?

    I can only imagine the wedgie. That being said, I swim a lot, so I don't worry so much in that regard. I like wearing bikini bottoms for a swimsuit. I think the fabric feels nicer and more lightweight, but that could just be me.

    100% cotton bikinis/low-rise

    I'm at the gym, I don't give a rat's *kitten* about panty lines :P
    What matters is that I stay comfortable, wedgie free, and there's no funkyness going on down there

    I think it depends on your body type. I thought 'boy shorts' would work well for working out but my thighs touch and I found them riding up on me and bunching up in my crotch. I prefer a bikini type that are seamless. I don't really care about a seam showing it is more for chafing or bunching ..if they are seamless this won't happen.

    Under armour, asics, lululemon all make undies. I do have two pair of under armour..I think they are called "pure stretch cheeky underwear' and they are my favorites.

    Same here. I don't wear clothes at all, but I can get away with that because I workout in my room :)

    Definitely this. Get some nice workout shorts/capris and you don't need anything under them. Or go for the running shorts with built in undies (I'm not a fan but I know a lot who are).

    I don't wear any while working out. I'm just more comfortable without them.

    I wear cotton briefs due to how sweaty I get. Wearing anything else is asking for problems, as far as my body is concerned!

    I HATE thongs.

    I like to wear girl boxers/shorts. Comfortable, and they look good :)

    Oh Emm Gee! I never wore any underwear once when I went to do a workout at the gym and it was one of the most embarrassing moments in my life......:ohwell: The sweat mark down there looked like I had pi*sed myself! I always wear underwear now! Bahahahahaha :laugh:

    I hardly ever do. You can buy the pants and shorts that have it built in, I don't know if you've ever seen them but you can typically get it at like Nike and probably even Walmart. To me that works best! But it's just whatever you're comfortable with. :)
