What is the best type of under wear for exercising or working out?

Question

What is the best type of underwear for excercising or working out? Any good style or fabrics or brands. Links or pictures would be helpful to. Thanks

Answer 1

The brand of underwear does not matter however, due to sweating, a brief would probably be best. You definitely want cotton! A natural fabric, such as cotton, will whisk the moisture away from the skin which can help prevent heat rash, moisture type rashes (such as yeast) and even acne (yes, you can get acne on your tush)! Cotton also "breathes" which means that air can circulate keeping the skin dry.

Make sure the underwear fits well! If it is too loose, it will bunch up causing chafing.

BTW, even though you are a guy, did you ever notice that all sports bras are cotton? It is because cotton is the best material when sweating alot!
