Good Weightlifting Pants?

Anyone know/use something similar a singlet but not as expensive and more common, i.e shop bought?

Compression shorts/tights? I have some under armor ones I wear sometimes. You might look for shorts/pants made for running.

lol I guess it depends on the thickness. They have some light compression which are the cheapest but probably too thin but I have some of the medium compression with some reinforcement that are really similar in feel to the bottom half of my singlet.

I just buy a couple of stretchy shorts/tights when needed. I think swimming pants could even work.

Any wrestling singlet will do, they are like $35 or so.

If you are looking for pants, not a singlet, the Adidas “Lifter Training Pants” are quite good. They are reinforced along the thighs so that bar brushes don’t wear out the fabric prematurely.

You can find them at http://www.dynamic-eleiko.com/

I use to wear running shorts…now I just wear a bunch of weightlifting leotards…I have the top down and I have 2 for comp use :stuck_out_tongue:

Next comp I’m going to rock out a special one that I haven’t worn in agesssssssssssssssss. Not since I was a 77kg!

If you’re looking for something cheap and easy with a little bit of spring, you could try wearing some long, underwear. I tried wearing some this winter because I was having to use a squat rack that was outside, and I actually really liked the little bit of tautness that they had. I felt like I could “feel” the springiness and the give in the fabric, but it didn’t seem to offer any extra assistance, nor was my ROM impaired.

Don’t encourage him! He has a black one like that and it’s quite distressing.

Tenaga Sports has a versatile pants for lifting and running. They only have black and gray, though.
