    I have some drawstring yoga pants that work great for that. I have them all sorts of lengths. Anything with drawstrings are good. Also they have workout pants that have hoops for a belt if yoga type pants arent your type!
    Most of the "Zumba" type pants have belt loops too.
    A lot of the running shorts have drawstrings too...

    Try Champion C9. My wife uses their workout pants. So far they've stayed on. Target has good prices on them.

    I use Champion as well. Not much jumping going on here though. :wink: I love UnderArmor but the price tag is insane.

    I bought mine at the gap. I'm a 38DD chest and a size 16, and their XL tops and XL pants and running shorts fit nicely on me. They are good quality and very comfortable. They also wash well. They have varying levels of tightness and lengths available. The racerback bra tops are fantastic.

    Danskin brand at Walmart is good too. They have a lot of comfy nice workout attire, but I find the Under Armor and Gap products to be more durable and stand up to multiple washing better.

    Mine are all super fitted capri yoga pants. No chance they are going anywhere...and if they do, its time for me to go get a sandwich!

    i get my workout pants at burlington coat factory. They have an elastic wast and draw string so that they stay put. sometimes i buy a smaller size since they do stretch to make sure i dont have that problem(them falling off).

    I buy most of my workout clothes at either Old Navy or Athleta. Athleta is expensive, but not too bad if you can get their stuff on sale. LOVE their clothes!

    Target has a good selection and decent prices.

    Also, thrift and resale stores can be a great source for cheap workout clothes. You just have to look regularly and you'll find thingsfrom time to time. Yesterday I got two pairs of running shorts and a pair of wind-suit pants (for next winter) for about 2.50 each.

    I found Danskin yoga style capris with a drawstring at Wal-Mart. They work great!

    lol i have this problem too a lot lately. a lot of my dang workout pants start sliding down while im trying to jog and its soo fustrating.. Im losing too fast i guess! Nething w a stretchy elastic waistband usually works for me and if they have spandex in them so they are really fitting helps. def any pants with drawstrings so you can tie them tighter if need be... i have so many pants that i cant wear when im planning on jogging bc i gotta pull them up all the time so i need to buy new pants.. Def only buying pants w drawstrings or tight spandex types from now on... i may try those legging things as well if i feel brave enuff to flaunt my legs lol

    I'm a huge fan of "little workout shorts" for walking, running, and my dance classes because they look really cute and give me a lot of freedom to move around unobstructed. The spandexy fabric is pretty good at keeping moisture away from my skin and they are really comfortable. I actually buy mine in a size up because already meant-to-be-tight gym shorts that are too tight cause some rather unpleasant visual effects in the muffin top and camel toe area. Yeah, I said it.

    You can get them really inexpensively from Forever 21 for about $10 each now. I also like the Victorias Secret gym pants and anything that comes in short inseams.

    I wear tight-ish spandex capris and pants that are designed for the activity. For example, my calvin klein "performance" pants are great for lifting weights but not so much for running since they don't wick sweat away quickly enough. For any jumping, you need to warm up (so you're sweaty & the pants stick to you), or get a size that makes them tight on your belly so they don't slip. I find that wearing special "exercise" underwear helps too :smile:

    Pants DONT have to be expensive - don't fall into this marketing trap! I don't own a single pair of expensive pants, and I'm getting great results. :laugh:

    I usually wear basketball shorts, or sweatpants but Target has a good section of workout clothes that you may like to try out :)
