Workout clothing

Do you prefer shorts to capri pants / trousers when exercising?

[MaidOfStars]

Depends on the activity, the weather, what I need to carry.

I have hotpant shorts, baggy athletic shorts, capris, regular leggings, fleece lined leggings.

Why do you ask?

[MaidOfStars]

Oh, bike shorts (which are baggy and mid calf so not 'shorts' at all )

[lljkk]

Loose shorts, baggy string gusset ones with pockets. As long as it's not too cold, best. Lycra is only ok if cold.

I can wear capris too.

[AuntieStella]

In summer, yes.

Especially now I've found 2XU and have compression tights in 3 lengths (short, capri, long) so I can choose whatever suits the weather.

Why do you want to know?

[Kate010377]

Thanks for the replies. I tend to wear shorts in the summer and capri's in the winter but have noticed that some people in the gym wear shorts all year round. I guess it's down to personal preference

It's warm in the gym, though, like 20 degrees or so? Summer temp. I thought you meant outside.

Sorry I meant in the gym.
