What type of shorts should I wear to the gym?

It’s important to wear gym shorts or sport shorts for workouts and exercise. Regular shorts should not be worn. They won’t be made from the right materials and won’t be the right fit. Gym shorts have been designed specifically for the gym and working out. Workout shorts are made from breathable, lightweight, sweat-wicking materials and are crafted to fit your physique to help enhance your workout.

Are 2 in 1 shorts good for the gym?

2 in 1 shorts are a great option for those who are active in and out of the gym. They look stylish and have performance benefits, such as sweat-wicking tech and durable materials.

How short are gym shorts supposed to be?

Gym shorts and sports shorts come in a range of different lengths. The length you choose will depend on the type of activity you’re doing and personal preference. We have a range of lengths available including 3 inch, 5 inch and 7 inch.

Should gym shorts be tight?

The fit of your gym shorts and sports shorts is really important. Gym shorts should have a second skin feel that doesn’t distract you from your workout. Sport shorts can have a slightly looser fit, but again can’t be too baggy so they interfere with your activities. Shorts for rest days can be more slack for optimal comfort.
