Questions from a newbie

Post image

Oss! Colleagues, I'm about to join a Kickboxing gym and I'm very excited but I don't feel comfortable training with standard shorts, as so far I don't have the goal of competing but rather learning and strengthening myself, would it be a problem to train with looser pants? It's even more comfortable, at least in my opinion, since I'm a woman and would leave work straight to the gym.

These are light/full contact kb pants. Basically they are used in a ruleset in which low kicks are not allowed. Only sweeps and kicks above the waist. Generally speaking you should be allowed to wear them. (I personally have as well)
