the leggings I run in are thick enough so nobody sees my undies when I stretch or do yoga, but still summer ones, meaning not made of fleece. I like them because behind the knees they're made of mesh so my legs breathe more easily. After exercising for 2 hours outdoors my legs ain't cold. The winter ones from the same brand are made of fleece and don't have this behind-the-knees mesh window.

If you use fleece leggings, don't they get too hot?

to run, work out, stretch, jump... up to 2 to 3 hours outdoors with and without wind.

Any brands you'd recommend? I have long, thin fingers.

I've seen some other women wearing crew socks over their leggings while running and stretching. It looks like aesthetics over functionality but I may be wrong.

I've also seen some younger girls wearing what seems to be like very long socks over their leggings, almost covering their knees.

I don't see how that can be easy or comfortable to wear or train on the long term but I may be wrong. If you do this, does it work to keep your legs warm?

Any drawbacks?

I workout, stretch and run outdoors three to four times a week, it's a routine I like.

It's November already and it's getting cold. I have a 100% merino wool mid layer long sleeved shirt I spent 130$ on I wear to the office but I don't want to ruin it working out, stretching and running because it was expensive.

This piece of clothing is quite thick, like 2 layers put together. I don't want to buy anything thinner for sport because I've read thinner undershirts/base layers break due to friction.

This is what I fear is going to happen with my merino mid/base layer if I workout with it, even if it's on the thicker end of layers.

Another option would be to buy a regular polyester base layer to use with a synthetic mid layer or combine a synthetic base layer and a cotton mid layer. Would these be stupid ideas?

What should I use as an outer layer?

Overall, what brands would you recommend? I'm a skinny 5'6'' woman.

I bought and tried my first thong and I want to know how common is doing what I described so the thong sits correctly and doesn't move.

After the first squat I noticed how it went up between my buttocks but stayed there for the 5 minutes I worked out. No chaffing, it didn't hurt, it was just strange.

Now I'm thinking about doing a squat right after putting on the string, unless you tell me this is a sign I bought the wrong size.

I workout with leggings and wonder which option reduces whale tailing.

A string’s waistband is much thinner than a thong’s. Does this mean whale tailing happens more often with strings than with thongs? If the waistband is not a string, but a wider piece of fabric, the piece should stay where it should be longer than a string and the waistband won’t ride over my hips when I workout, jump or stretch.

Is this how it works?

I’m skinny and don’t have wide hips or waist, if that makes a difference.

I like working out and stretching in my leggings and I’m looking for a seamless tanga or a string that won’t show lines, won’t ride up and won’t accumulate sweat.

I don’t know if I should discard cotton tangas, because cotton absorbs moisture and I want to remain dry. If cotton is a no go, what fabrics should I use?

I don’t know if I should completely discard tangas and use a string, because compared to strings, tangas are quite wide on the sides. Won’t that be noticeable to the people I workout with when I stretch? And if it’s cotton, it’s going to be thicker than synthetic fabric or a seamless tanga.

I’ve never used a string, but seems to be ideal if I want to avoid lines. What I fear is that it’ll ride up. I don’t want that.

If I get a string and workout with it, will it leave deep marks in my skin? It’s a very thin piece of fabric.

Whatever I buy it’s gonna be low rise.

What works for you?

If you read my history you'll know I'm a nurse applying for a position that's gonna mean less money but also less physical job, stable sleeping patterns and your regular 5 day workweek.

today I said goodbye to a group of coworkers I like working with. I was discreet about the new job, but I'm gonna miss working with them.

It makes me don't want to quit.

If you were ever here, how did you solve this?
