Do I need to wear underwear during yoga?

We all know that women usually have to wear underwear. Although wearing underwear is good for our body, has the effect of body shaping, and also has the function of protecting breasts, but in many cases, underwear still has many obstacles to our body. After putting on underwear, we will feel very uncomfortable. If we wear underwear, we will feel very restrained. Many people choose not to wear underwear when practicing yoga. So do you need to wear underwear when practicing yoga?

I often encounter sisters who are new to yoga asking a question: For this reason, the author visited some yoga masters and yoga coaches, and the answers he got were consistent: Do not wear underwear when practicing yoga, and if you do wear underwear, you must wear sports underwear. Only in this way can the body move freely without restriction and achieve the best results of practicing yoga.

When practicing yoga, you can take off your bra, or choose to wear sports bras, such as bra stickers or bra pads. Do not wear thick bras or bras with underwires when practicing. Because in yoga and Pilates, many movements are done on the ground.

When we crawl prone or lie on our backs on the mat, the breasts are likely to be squeezed out from anywhere. In this way, the steel ring may get stuck in some glands of the breasts. There are also many squeezing and twisting movements, which will also compress any part of our chest. This is not good for the breasts in the long run. In addition, they also told me some tips for practicing yoga, which may be useful for sisters who love yoga:

1. Wear long sleeves and long pants but clothes that are stretchable; do not let your hair down but comb it up, but it should not affect your ability to lie down; it is best to go barefoot, but you can wear socks if you are not comfortable with it.

2. Do not eat staple food 2 hours before practicing yoga. It is best to go to the toilet before class.

3. Never practice yoga if you are sick.

4. Before practicing yoga, it is best to rinse your body with hot water, especially your feet!

5. When practicing yoga, don’t wear large jewelry. It’s best to take off all jewelry and turn off your phone to avoid affecting your concentration!

6. You don’t need to perform the movements exactly as the coach does. As long as you push yourself to your limits, it will be effective.

When practicing yoga, it depends on the situation. It is best to wear underwear, but the underwear you choose should be suitable and not too tight, otherwise it will definitely be uncomfortable when exercising. The underwear you choose for yoga should be elastic. There are also underwear specifically made for yoga. You can choose to try it. There are many such underwear for sale on the Internet. You can buy them by searching on the Internet, but you must choose regular ones.
