When to Wear These Pieces
These bottoms fit naturally into every part of your training week. Throw on shorts for cardio days, circuit training, or outdoor runs when you need maximum breathability. Reach for joggers on strength-focused sessions where you want a bit more coverage, or on rest days when comfort is the priority. The 2-in-1 shorts work brilliantly for mixed sessions - built-in compression feels secure during dynamic movements while the outer layer keeps things modest.
Beyond the gym, these pieces transition easily to everyday wear. Joggers in neutral colours work for casual meetups or running errands. Shorts are ideal for warm-weather activities, from park workouts to weekend sports. The versatility means you're getting mens workout bottoms that earn their space in your wardrobe beyond just training hours.
Key Features
Quick-Drying Fabrics
Moisture-wicking materials pull sweat away from your skin, keeping you feeling fresher during intense sessions. The fabrics dry fast, which means less time waiting between washes and more time training.
Practical Storage
Secure pockets keep essentials like your phone, keys, or gym pass safe while you move. Zippered options mean you can focus on your workout without worrying about things falling out during burpees or sprints.
Flexible Fit
Stretch materials move with your body through full ranges of motion. Whether you're lunging, jumping, or stretching, the fabric flexes without feeling restrictive or losing its shape.
Durable Construction
Reinforced stitching and quality materials mean these bottoms hold up to regular training. They maintain their fit and feel wash after wash, making them reliable staples you can count on.

FAQs
How do I find the right size for mens bottoms?
Check the size guide on each product page, which includes waist and length measurements. If you're between sizes, consider whether you prefer a closer or more relaxed fit. Shorts with adjustable drawstrings offer extra flexibility, while joggers with elastic waistbands accommodate slight variations in size.
What's the difference between training shorts and rest day joggers?
Training shorts use moisture-wicking fabrics designed for active sessions - they're lighter and dry faster. Rest day joggers feature softer, more comfortable materials like cotton blends that prioritize comfort over performance features. Choose based on whether you're planning to work up a sweat or focus on recovery.
How should I care for these mens athletic bottoms?
Machine wash in cold water and avoid fabric softener, which can reduce the moisture-wicking properties. Tumble dry on low or air dry to maintain the fabric's stretch and shape. Turn items inside out before washing to protect any printed details or logos.
Are the 2-in-1 shorts suitable for running?
Yes, the compression inner layer stays in place during running while the outer shorts provide coverage and pocket space. The lightweight construction feels comfortable over longer distances, and the moisture-wicking fabric handles sweat effectively during cardio sessions.
Can I wear these training bottoms for activities other than gym workouts?
Absolutely. These pieces work well for various activities - shorts suit outdoor sports, running, or cycling, while joggers are great for yoga, casual walks, or general everyday wear. The versatile designs mean you'll get use from them beyond just gym sessions.
What length of shorts works best for different exercises?
The 7-inch length offers a good balance - short enough to avoid restricting leg movement during squats and lunges, but long enough to feel comfortable during floor exercises. This length works across most training styles, from weights to cardio.
Who designs Myprotein's mens bottoms?
Myprotein's in-house design team creates all the bottoms in this collection. They focus on practical features that matter during real workouts, testing materials and fits to ensure each piece performs well across different training scenarios.
Do these bottoms have pockets for storing essentials during workouts?
Most pieces include practical pocket options - shorts typically feature zippered pockets for securing your phone and keys, while joggers offer both zip and slip pockets. Check individual product descriptions for specific pocket configurations on each style.
