I workout with leggings and wonder which option reduces whale tailing.
A string’s waistband is much thinner than a thong’s. Does this mean whale tailing happens more often with strings than with thongs? If the waistband is not a string, but a wider piece of fabric, the piece should stay where it should be longer than a string and the waistband won’t ride over my hips when I workout, jump or stretch.
Is this how it works?
I’m skinny and don’t have wide hips or waist, if that makes a difference.
I’d say so, but it really depends on the style of the thong you’re comparing to. Some thongs also have less whale taling than others, (they can sit very low).
Why not just get some leggings that ride a bit higher so you don’t have to worry about it? When I’m just casual or going for max comfort or working out I always just wear leggings way high and then cover any tummy bulge unpleasantness with a loose tank top.
