I wear either a singlet,tights, or these shorter Outdoor Research shorts that flex and have a lil zipper in the side that fits my phone perfect so I can still jam out when I have to use headphones
I'm certainly not suggesting that what you wear will make or break you. Hell, I wear old sweat pants often during my workouts... sometimes even a sweat shirt. I've squatted in my old rugby shorts too, and I can say that those definitely suck for squat depth. The question was just something that randomly came across my mind one day and I figured I'd open it up to the community. It's interesting to see such varied responses!
J-Dawg: I think that would be great! I'd totally pick up a few pairs if they get released again! And I agree, booty shorts was the entirely the wrong word to use. My fault everyone, haha.
Buckfever: I completely agree. Like I said, I'd pick up a few pairs in a heartbeat if Animal released them!
BOSS: I was wondering if you were training in compression shorts/singlet. That was going to be another route I took as well. It looks like Malanichev trains in a singlet too.
Again, I want to reiterate that I totally agree with P Diesel that shorts ain't gonna make or break you. I think we are all in agreement here about everything... except the booty shorts thing *smacks head*.
yeah booty shorts... hmmm at least he didn't say hot pants

I'm not gonna lie. I prefer to squat and deadlift in short-ass-shorts. I have a pair I use from high school that end just above mid thigh. I'd like to get a few extra pairs so I'm not stainkin' in the gym but I have no idea which store sells booty shorts for dudes. Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations?
