About this deal

If the idea of wearing skintight shorts turns you cold but it's too warm to run in leggings, you do still have options. 2-in-1 shorts can be a great compromise, as they look like classic shorts but they have a tight cycle-style layer underneath to minimise rubbing, while the relaxed outer layer provides extra coverage. '2-in-1 shorts have a longer inner layer which can help prevent chafing, and cover modesty if you don't like wearing something too short,' says Stewart. • Split shorts Did they offer the right fit around your legs? This is key for making sure your circulation doesn't get cut off mid-ride. Getting the appropriate size for your bike shorts is important for comfort and fit.

What to look for in women’s running shorts But slightly longer, form-fitting shorts that have more of a compression effect are well suited to women who run, as they minimise chafe and maximise comfort. 'Compression shorts will also help improve blood flow for faster recovery and help to protect against overuse injuries,' says Nicola Stewart from Up and Running. • 2-in-1 shorts Quality cycling pants have leg grippers on the leg bands to stop the shorts from riding up. They could be made from either silicone or rubber.Flexibility is a key decider when it comes to these Beroy women’s bike shorts. You move and they move right with you.

When testing cycling shorts designed for workouts like running, weight training, Reformer Pilates and so on, we looked for: Whether you're testing yourself in the gym or heading into the great outdoors, Nike women's cycling shorts are made to move with you. Expect supportive fabrics that provide a smooth, sculpted fit, with four-way stretch for ultimate comfort.

Most shorts will indicate leg length in inches in their titles (eg 4", 6" or 8").

Fitness shorts can be styled in many ways and so effortlessly too. Pair your gym shorts with a sports bra and matching crop top on days you really want to show off all your gym progress. Layer with a hoodie or sweatshirt. On cooler days or days you want to chill out, swap your gym shorts for a pair of joggers. Is it better to wear workout leggings or workout shorts to the gym?
