ive been hitting hams and quads hard for the last 8 months or so, with a good diet and my legs are getting bigger, they are starting to rub together a little bit when i walk. anyone else have this problem? they start to get a rash after walking quite a bit.

I had that problem when I trained legs.....got sick of it and stopped lifting for legs....just running now....problem solved.

Better get you some undies with legs in them. I used to be a little fat legged when I was kid. and had a lot of problems with galding. Boy does that shit hurt.

When I was younger that happened when I was overweight.

What about bigger lats making one sweat more in the armpits?

i was considering just running for my legs too (still do deads tho )... how often/far do you run. wouldnt the rest of your body start to become unproportioned? or is that not really an issue.

I've had this problem since I was a kid. This is the biggest reason why I wear boxer briefs, to avoid serious chafing which has been a problem.

join the club. especially in this heat it is the worst. I am walking around with something that feels like friggin diaper rash.

I run 3x a week.... only 3 or 4 miles. Proportion is still good.

Thick ass, absorbant boxer briefs are the ticket man. I sweat so much some days that without them, it would be soaking through my pants, just SITTING. I live in a warm climate which doesn't help. Haynes makes them, and Lee Priest sports them in one of his videos while posing in the bathroom.

"Thick ass" is the name of them?


Posted by: Mudge

no but they are thick, they almost look like shorts. I guess you could consider it double walled protection, I went to these from regular BBriefs for their extra absorbant nature. Just dont let people call em a diapy.

I have the sweating problem, so I need them.

If its just for leg protection, good boxer briefs hiked up a tad into the upper region of your inner thighs.

Why is that? Just wondering cause I sweat more than the average person.

I used chafe so bad that I'd get nasty pimples on my legs.


Posted by: Mudge

I dont know, I didn't start having a sweating problem until I got into the 230s. First its my back, then its my crack. Wherever there is no airflow, I will sweat through.

FTL - fruit of the loom.... I bought Hanes once, and they were too short on the legs, kept riding up. The FTL's are a good length.

If its a serious problem and you have a few extra dollars laying around, I'd suggest underarmor boxer briefs. A cheaper alternative would be bag balm or vaseline on the thighs. That diaper rash is nasty shit, I should know, I'm in the military and we do conditioning hikes; 20+ miles with a pack and gear will give you some sick chaffing. But try it, both seem to help me.

Oh, hmm. I have some longer Hanes too, but they aren't as thick. Where did you get yours (store)?

As for putting things on the thighs I NEVER EVER had success with baby powder or any of that crap, it made things worse because I always sweated right through it. What I did have good luck with was brown stiff paper towels, I was working warehousing about 9 years ago when I had these problems with chafing. I still can't grow hair there.

Basically I have to keep my legs away from each other completely, no regular undees and powders at all. Unless I am doing desk type work or light walking, once I get into doing cardio or something like that, its a matter of days before a problem would come back.


Posted by: swordfish

my thighs arent rubbing together too bad yet, but their starting to a little.


Posted by: Tough Old Man

I think this is a good ? for those who lift or are fat. you fat asses probably have more problems then us bodybuilders.

Tough

I have had this problem off and on for a while, but I had no idea it was so common...
