squatting in jeans

[RandyRhoads]

just a weird dumb question...my uncle told me your not suppose to squat in jeans...(he dicks around a lot...but i wasnt sure if he was kidding)

wouldnt your jeans rip.........cuz people want to be ripped not to have their pants and jeans ripped

 

[Hoss]

They might restrict movement.

You may be theonly person in the gym with a wife beater and jeans. If this sits well with you ... carry on. If it raises some alarms, buy some shorts.

haha it was my first time...they were loose too (I'm still talking about jeans).

heh, whatever works for you. Member in gym class teacher docked you points if you didnt change? Thats where I picked up my habit but every now and then I will go to the gym in jean shorts.

many gyms you will be shunned if you try to workout in jeans, jeans are a no no in most gyms...

a few months ago i was looking at some exercise magazines on the newsstand and there was one called "exercise for men only" and they had a full body workout layout with some dude in what was almost a thong bikini.

when i turned it over to read the title of the magazine again i said "ok, now i understand" LOL

I see two different guys who work at the same place I do go to the gym at night in there work clothes. They even leave there steel toed boots on. I just dont get it, maybe they feel stronger in them.

HAha maybe they are afraid to drop the weights on their toes.. squatting in jeans sounds ouch to me, you need the freedom to move and have flow of that movement. But then again I lift patients in my uniform so it is doable just not ideal. What ever you find comfortable works.
