workout pants

Ok for those who work out...I need some help. This is gonna be super tmi.

When I workout, besides the normal sweaty areas...my butt and crotch sweat like a mother effer. I get off the elliptical and it looks like I peed my pants. Help. I don't want to walk around the gym looking like I have no bladder control. Is there any pants that don't show sweat lines or something?

    I don't know about pants, but my regular old Nike running shorts don't show sweat. They also don't soak up moisture....

    What if you wear black pants? I find that when I wear my black yoga pants, you can't see sweat.

    Yes. Black pants were worn today. Still looked like I pissed myself.

    This sounds dumb, but how about wearing a pantyliner? nbsp;I usually do and it helps with this problem.

    My back sweats then drips down my crack. Yes. Tmi...but that won't help haha

    Baby powder doesn't help me. I've tried it in the past and it is abbreeding ground for yeast. I might try deodorant. Maybe a spray might help

    If you're going to do a serious workout inside absolutely go for shorts. My target has some nice shorts on clearance right now that don't show sweat.

    I should add I have jiggly celulite all over my thighs and I still wear shorts. Also I'm the pastiest person ever... you can see my veins. I turn purple when I work out. Still wear neon green shorts and I give 0 fuks.

    I have a pair of running pants from old navy that I love - the crotch area is vented so you get a little circulation down there.

    Check Old Navy. I have some moisture wicking ones from there, that I wear to Zumba. I sweat like a hor in church during Zumba.

    I will second the Lululemon - amazing! Love, love! But they are quite spendy.

    I also like my Nike Dri-fit crops or pants. They do pretty well not showing the sweat.

    Good luck!

    Definitely avoid cotton fabrics.

    My butt gets pretty sweaty when I work out too and I find shiny fabrics (usually mostly made of spandex) show it way less than cotton. If shiny isn't your thing I'd go with loose shorts, if they aren't touching you they shouldn't show the sweat.

    Hate shorts?  Want to look cute and not sweat so damn much?

    Let me introduce you to your new best friend, the running skirt...

    I have four or five of these and they are WONDERFUL.  So flattering, more so than shorts on some people.  Also, you stay very cool.  I trained for a marathon, in summer, in Florida wearing my skirts.
