VPL and gym leggings

11 replies

Littleguggi · Today 16:04

What underwear do people wear under gym leggings to avoid VPL? Just standard adanola type leggings.

Please don't say go commando or thongs! I need something that will hold me in, and stay in place when lifting!

I was thinking fitted shorts type of thing? Does anyone have any good recommendations?

These, they look like they look, they will never be sexy, unless your partner is into Bridget jones. They don’t hold you in. They are whisper thin, but good god the comfiest undies I’ve ever owned and completely invisible under clothing.

Yes. Something like PP just posted. Mine are from M&S. But often I just wear my massive granny knickers anyway. There are all sorts of arses in all sorts of leggings at the gym and nobody seems to care or notice (unless you’re a glam thing in those scrunch bum leggings with matching pastel bra top!)

I have some knickers I bought from M&S quite a while ago that are VPL free. I am one of those people who get paranoid about my arse showing through my leggings when I do a squat so always wear these. I hate a vpl.

She doesn’t want thongs. I wear thongs under gym leggings and can’t feel them

Okay these look the best so far as they have a 100% cotton gusset! Thank you for the options everyone!

I'm running, so I really don't care if someome sees my VPL.

OP I hated thongs (havent worn them for 20+ years!) but couldnt find any VPL free underwear in my size as I was in a rush I just picked the thongs up thinking they will do just for the gym, and I was surprised to find them really comfortable! Im not sure if they have changed in those 20 years but im converted.

These just disappear up my bum crack and give me the fucking rage.
Now I just accept having a VPL, I can’t see it anyway, not my problem.
