High waisted leggings for circuits

Springfields · 06-03-2019 11:13pm #1

Hiya any ladies out there recommend some not too expensive leggings / bottoms with a high waist that don't roll down over the tummy during exercise. ...started circuits a few weeks back and the ones I have from a high street dept store are a disaster...Thanks in advance

I have lots of pairs and the 3 I wear all the time are a pair from under armour, they're heavy winter ones. A pair of Lululemon ones from BT expensive but really good quality and have washed really well and a recent addition from Diesel which are kinda shiney and not like anything I would normally pick up but I actually really like them

I actually find the myprotein power leggings unreal. Best leggings I have ever had possibly and pretty cheap with a code/sale. And no, I'm one of the few left who is *not* a "sponsored athlete"!

Dunnes - 15 euro core leggings.

Been wearing various ones over the years and I always come back to these.

Still wearing last years ones but Im now 2 stone lighter - they seem to fit at every weight!

Thanks for all the suggestions. It's dunnes ones I have at the moment but just won't stay put...and drive me nuts but could be just my shape. Will def look up the others. Cheers.

They changed the style of them last year, I find the newer ones better.

The older ones used to slip on me a bit too, until I got sweaty

So I still have some older ones but I only use them if its going to be a sweaty workout.

Its like the waistband of the older ones was just the same material as the leggings but the new ones have a different elasticated bit inside a wide band that holds on much better (hard to explain). Initially I thought I wouldnt like them, but they have worked out great.

Plus - they are practically the only ones that are consistently not a bit see through when you bend over.

Its hard to find good ones, I tend to buy like 6 pairs at once when I find ones that work for me!

I LOVE the power ones too, I have 5 pairs I live in! and because they're not shiny or see through I can get away with wearing them with boots in work!!

Reviews arent great on myprotein.

I was going to order some recently but my husband ordered myprotein leggings with his last order and they are see through so I wasnt impressed by them (nor is he!).

Were they definitely the power leggings? These ones:

There are lots of different types on myprotein tbh, but the power leggings are definitely not see through, they are a really thick almost cottony feel, but have great compression. Really comfy.... *and* *and* *and*..... POCKETS!!!

Seconded, the heartbeat ones on mp are a bit see thru if you're at the upper end of the size range for your size but the power ones are magic. My only issue with them is that they don't come in more colours! (well the ones with mesh inserts do, but I can't sneeky wear those to work)

I actually have some heartbeats too and find them good for the price (not see through but I don't wear them super tight so they are not stretched than thin). Think they were €15 or something in a sale. Though my black pair and much better quality than the navy ones I got which is a bit weird!

But the power leggings are definitely better - the mulberry and slate grey are lovely imo (would love the thunder blue though but those ones with mesh just seem too flimsy or sth!)

You are now making me wonder if I could get away with wearing them into work :pac::pac::pac::o

Thats funny I got the khaki heartbeats and find them better quality than the black!

I'd love them in khaki and red and electric blue. I saw someone on insta in red mp leggings that were part of the new line and I keep checking back in the hope they're the powers!

Me? Addicted to buying leggings?! Not a chance!
