Compression garments- who wears them??



Recommended Posts

I have heard of folks wearing compression garments (Spanx, Wonder Unders) while wearing regular clothes but how about while exercising?

Im having some very embarrassing problems with extra, hanging skin. It slaps while Im running or doing certain exercises. Not only does it make an audible sound it kind of hurts and rubs. Plus I look just wonderful bouncing/jiggling around.

I do have Nike running tights and Under Armour shorts but it's just not enough. HELP

Am I the only one with this problem? Any suggestions for garments or where to purchase one?

Im about half way through my journey and have another 60 lbs more to lose before thinking about PS.

Thanks

You can fine Spanx at Lane Bryant or Macy's or Nordstrom's. I think they are a little expensive to exercise in. I wear a fitted body briefer everyday (although I don't have flabby skin) I like the smooth line it gives under my clothes. If you're simply going to exercise in them, I suggest some plain ole leggings that are heavy with the spandex

i wear Lipo in a box now. I used to wear Spanx but they are really thin and wear out too fast. Lipo in a box are amazing and smooth everything out and no bumps or bulges. and no slapping:wink_smile:

well worth the money and last so much longer than most Shapewear.< /p>

I got a pair of long leg SKINS. I wear them under my normal work out gear whenever I play sport or exercise. The feel great, prevent chafing and my legs don't get as much of the lactic acid jelly feeling after workouts

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
