I bought these leggings to workout in the gym. Largely strength training. I wore them for the first time for a circuits class. They were really comfy and look great on. They're also pretty squat proof. And the waist is really soft and feels comfortable. However, this is the first pair of SBs I've had where I've had a huge patch of sweat show at the top of my legs. And no one loves a visible sweaty crotch! I'm slightly gutted as they are pretty perfect otherwise. I had the navy - perhaps the black would be a better option for any sweaty workouts.
