How to avoid the WORST gym related wardrobe malfunction

Of all of the public places that a wardrobe malfunction could occur, the gym is definitely the one area we would really prefer to not have to deal with that. 

Unfortunately, there is one fashion snafu that remains constantly lurking at the corners of our gym session. 

Whether you want to admit it or not, it has probably happened to you at some point. It sneaks up on us when we least expect it and lets everyone know it has arrived, even if we are the last ones in the know.

Until that oh-no moment in the mirror shows exactly what it’s been up to. Yes, this is all in reference to the infamous camel toe. 

For future reference, here are some handy tricks to use so you can avoid that particular dreaded moment, or just give you a giggle at how ridiculous it seems to practice your squats in a dressing room. All for a good cause though!

Try before you buy:

All lower body workout bottoms should be tried on before being purchased. Try walking out of the fitting room to see what they look like in different lighting. Also, move around in them while you try them on, you often her stories of people busting out some lunges or squats in dressing rooms these days. You might as well save yourself the future embarassment. 

How high is too high?

“High-waisted” and “workout” are two terms that used together a lot. Yes, high waisted pants can be super flattering, but if you're spending a lot of time hiking up that waist band, you may want to pause and consider if anything has gathered somewhere you rather it hasn't.

Marathon runners! Avoid new shorts on race day:

Runners are often told not to try new things the day of a big race. New foods or new shoes are not recommended on race day, and your shorts or leggings shouldn’t be an exception. While you will probably be too busy during the race to care about your fashion, sometimes those mid-race photos can lave you feeling like Chrissy here.
