The top ones are “loungewear.”

I call the top pair “work pants” and the bottom pair “house pants” lol

There’s a guy who bikes around my neighborhood, he’s got the fancy bike, the skin tight outfit, the fancy aerodynamic helmet, all while smoking a cigarette. Makes me laugh every time I see him.

Oh you’ve seen my dad at the gym? Sigh. He wouldn’t even buy sneakers to work out in insisting that his LL Bean clodhoppers were fine.

I side eye the lady that walks on the treadmill at approximately 1.5 mph while eating a snickers bar.

Oh we had one of those. Cut off jorts every time.

I’m with you. (holding fist in air)

...you might be running next to me. Sorry! I’m still trying to figure out how to adjust the speeds on a treadmillquickly to do the walk/run alternating periods on my C25K app.

How I know that tv is bullsht: they show women working out, eating, running, tending to pets/kids, functioning, without their long hair in a ponytail.

I side-eye the lady at the gym who runs so close to the front of the treadmill that her hips are against the handles and her feet hit the non-moving part EVERY. STEP. It’s loud and strange.

I’m an old too and I don’t know when one turned into the other. Something something young people, something something phones.

I wear sweatpants to the gym...over my shorts. The sweatpants come off, the shorts stay on.

Okay but can we talk semantics? Is it because I am an old that these are yoga pants:

I can’t work out in sweatpants because I like to feel, um, contained while working out, haha. I like the support workout leggings give, especially when doing some higher impact stuff.

Maybe she’s at a posh box gym. Which is why I’ve never gone to a posh box gym.

If the very toned gentleman with the amazing calves at my gym can wear shorts so short I am just waiting for a nut to come flying out... then I can wear my spandex and no makeup and no one should say anything

Additionally - in things like yoga, you need to see the body better to make sure you’re doing the positions well. I’m taking an adult beginner ballet class and the instructor told us to wear leotards or tight workout pants because she needs to see how our body looks in the positions. Is the knee extending more than it…

She’s got it all wrong: Sweatpants are awesome for regular life, but terrible for working out. There’s too much fabric, so increased friction. Plus, when you sweat, they take forever to dry. Sport tights/leggings are the far superior choice for working out, from a practical POV.

1. Is she trying to seduce America?

Even Mike Pence had to sit down in the middle of that singing of the anthem.
