Hey Yangblog! You Still Talking About Your Stuff?



Abby and I are still trying to figure out my yoga pants dilemma. The pants may show "stuff" going on, but Abby doesn't think it is a big deal. Of course she doesn't think it is a big deal. Abby is a dancer. She has a dancer's body. Dancer "stuff" is pleasant unlike Yangblog "stuff". Seeing Yangblog "stuff" is like being hit repeatedly on the forehead with a ball-peen hammer.

They are very nice pants and I would love to wear them without causing harm. Abby has suggestions for how I could pull this off:

1) Wear super thick underwear. If necessary, I could wear two or three pairs. The only problem is Yangblog hates being "steamy".

2) Tape my stuff down and tape it down good. This is brilliant except for the crackly sound it would make during class. Yangblog being Yangblog would crackle and stare incredulously at the person in front of me to make it look like THEY were "crackling". Throwing people under the bus is something Yangblog does best. Last time I checked, this is very "unyoga-like" behavior.

3) Wear a short skirt over the pants.

If you will excuse me, I need to check our credit card bill.

I am sure Abby is paying comedians to write her material.

Haha...you can wear a 'tokkie' (I don't no the English name for it but Hockeykeepers wear such a thing down below and freefighters too...) It's from plastic... very elegant... ;-)) But I love your blog (and I am sorry for my bad English)... Groetjes Marjan.

When you shop for yoga clothes, remember that it doesn’t matter how durable, comfortable, or great-looking they are, if they’re not all three, you’ll notice. At SFORZA, We use only the most breathable, durable materials and employ interlock weaving technology for a smooth, tailored look. So in the gym, in your home or in a posture you’ve never done before, the last thing on your mind will be your clothes.

Please visit us and check out our 2009 Collection at www.sforzasport.com.

Namaste.

Hey James, how the heck are ya? Love the new work and the puzzle head book looks fantastic.

We are doing well. Still have Beth Singer Design...its our 28th year in business.

I'm so glad I found your blog. Will read it often!

Howard, my husband, also bought some yoga pants...and he found the same problem. He thought the pants made him look very large...which of course, he loved. But alas, he was shy to wear them anywhere but home. Women have the same problem...too tight around the wrong spots is a very weird look. I recall some folks called it the camel-foot look. So...we all have these issues when it comes to exercise wear. How about just wearing a plain pair of good old fashioned gym shorts?

BTW, I still have a bright pink tennis cap you gave me eons ago...
Your friend, Beth

I am so happy everyone is concerned about my stuff.

Kinda.

Beth! Nice to hear from you. I never thought we would one day talk about our issues with "camel toe"
