Rep Short

Q: What shorts do weightlifters wear?

Weightlifters typically wear shorts made from durable, flexible materials that allow for a full range of motion during squats, cleans, and other compound lifts. These shorts should stay in place under strain. The Rep Short is designed specifically to meet these performance and durability needs.

Q: Can you wear running shorts for weightlifting?

Running shorts are usually too lightweight and may lack the durability, structure, and support needed for weightlifting. They often shift during heavy movements. For serious lifting, it’s best to wear weightlifting-specific options like the Rep Short, which offer better grip, coverage, and flexibility.

Q: Are compression shorts good for weightlifting?

Compression shorts are great for providing muscle support and reducing fatigue during training. However, they’re best used as a base layer under a durable outer short. Pairing compression with a heavy-duty style like the Rep Short offers both support and the protection needed for lifting.
