Weightlifting "Commando"?

I always do leg days in soccer shorts, no special underwear/squat suits or anything.

If your core is strong, it's STRONG. And a couple bits of fabric isn't gonna save you from the bane of a weak midsection, if that's the case.

(P.S. Core isn't simply just about your abs.)

 

Usually at the gym, I would never consider going commando, but with the gyms all closed in my area, I have also just been going commando. Doesn't really seem to matter but then again not lifting, just using strength bands and core workouts.

 

I think with isolation movements it doesn't matter. I used to run track and XC commando and always got shit on, but I enjoyed the freedom, however, in retrospect I would use compression shorts just for the injury prevention and increased mobility.

Leg workouts I always have some type of compression short on my because of how many muscles are involved.

I'm doing NSUNs rn and the days I focus on bench, I'm usually just wearing my PJ pants since I'm not doing any leg movements.

 

I’m learning that as I work out more.
