    Thanks for sharing. Anyway, I thought most ladies never wore underwear under their workout tights. I can understand if you're wearing workout shorts and want a little protective coverage.

    LOL - I would ask who doesn't? I definitely do.

    I like Body by Victoria Secret. The underwear I like have no lines so they are super comfy.

    I think it depends on what your priorities and problems are :)
    For example, because all of my garments are about the same in terms of comfort, so my (lame :) priority is "what is invisible under whatever shorts I'm wearing?" ie-- vanity. :) What's your primary concern?

    I've found men's longer length (9" inseam) compression shorts/underwear to be the most comfy under yoga pants and the like. For running shorts, just the "gasket" inside them.

    Definitely ones with no seams lol There have been plenty uncomfortable showers after wearing a thong that has seams during a long run or spin class :p

    We were just talking about this at work! I need technical underwear! I tried going comando, but there are seams in my compression pants that make it impossible...but I need something that wicks the moisture away, as I seem to end up almost with diaper rash (sorry if tmi!!).

    When I work out it must be bikini cut style undies.

    I don't. But I change after every workout. For cycling, I wear old undies and attach a thick pad to the outside.

    Ex officio is technical underwear. Synthetic, wicking and seamless. I got a pair for an obstacle course race and they are swell. Bought them at r.e.I. All cuts were available.

    I have a pair of these and I like them. They're lightweight, moisture wicking, and also seamless. I would get more but they're kind of expensive and I can only get them online (and shipped internationally which is even more pricey).

    Other than this one pair I own, I just wear whatever underwear I happened to have on when I got to the gym.

    I wear Izod seamless bikini. They fit perfectly over my very round butt with no riding or lines.

    nike combat compression shorts with a pair of basketball shorts...they are great for preventing chub rub (along with body glide). I don't go to the gym to look cute...I go to do work son!
