StillWaters Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I don't think I could ever be confortable wearing thongs or going commando. I tried the commando thing once at home. No sir, I didin't like it. Link to comment
Guzzi Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I find this debate very peculiar.... I can't wear anything else. I just get wedgied and spend the day trying to fish handfuls of material out of my ass crack if I wear big pants. And yeah, I definitely wear thongs in the gym. Don't understand why anyone would find it uncomfortable... 2 Make Life Rue The Day Turning back the clock Recipe book 14 Life is far too short to take seriously Link to comment

Silo Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I would just vote for going without. Thongs are not comfy for me when I'm just sitting around. I think they'd be even less so while exercising. 2016 goals: Hit goal weight.

Oramac Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Up until recently, I was actually going commando to the gym. Don't know why I stopped, actually. I have actually considered this before. The pants I wear to the gym are quite comfortable while commando. Just haven't tried it yet.

matty_mcfly Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 The downfall of this is that its spiraled into a serious conversation about thongs at the gym and I really have nothing to input here. *Dammit now I have to rummage thru my gf's underwear drawer for firsthand knowledge lol* 1 "I can.

Morrigainz Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I've been frantically trying to think of anything I've overheard in the gym lately that was ridiculous. I don't hear much; I usually have my headphones in. Level ? Half-Dwarf/Half-Amazon Warrior STR:21.25 STA:15 DEX: 10.95 CON: 14 WIS:15.5 CHA:17 SWOLE BUCKS: 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Link to comment
matty_mcfly Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 ^^ Agreed! In the sense of not hearing much. I'm in the gym at 6am. There's usually only one or two other people there. What I have learned is that PT sessions seem like therapy sessions for the PT. Thankfully, a few of the trainers and instructors have gotten pissed and have taken to posting signs and notices about reracking weights, bars, et cetera. You know proper gym etiquette stuff. 1 "I can. I will.

Oramac Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 It's not a bad exercise, but maybe it's unusual. I've been doing Horse Stance instead of squats for a while since my knee is giving me trouble. I've definitely gotten a few funny looks.

Artinum Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I don't know if thongs are something different in America, but I'm picturing bikini bottoms. We have something in the UK called a jockstrap - is that what you're all on about? It's worn by a lot of male sporty types to keep their bits in place. Thongs aren't what they used to be...

SevenofSeven Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Thongs to me are slivers of rubber worn on the feet, coming in a multitude of colours and styles, they can also be referred to as flip flops or jandals. The underwear "thong" is referred to as G-String or G-Banger.Cultural Exchange. 2 Wait! What............? Link to comment

It's worn by a lot of male sporty types to keep their bits in place.Thongs aren't what they used to be...Yeah, we still have those, though I think they've pretty well been replaced by the compression shorts, though for power lifting (raw) you have to go back to the jock strap. Never thought of it as a thong, but that is bascially correct.Thongs (in some parts of the USA) are also what are known as flip-flops; rubber sandals with one strap between your big toe and its neighbor.Sent from my SM-P905V using Tapatalk 1 Warriors don't count reps and sets.

Obitim Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 I'll try a rescue story... Just finished my 'I'bve gob a colb so I'll not libt ad mubch' session and I saw a couple of lads come in, get on the Smith Machine and start doing some sort of row from the waist up to about the chest..I wasn't too sure what they were up to but I'd just finished DL'ing 100kg and then doing hanging knee raises and they looked at me like I was the mad one!

INSAIYAN Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 The smith machine is always a source of amusement. Last night, the smith at my gym was broken and two young brohams walked up to it spouting a few disappointed expletives. They moved to the power rack next to it and started bicep curling the bar.
