I have 2 different compression tops--one Under Armor, one Champion. The bottoms of both ride up to my natural waist, thus baring my lower belly...not something I am keen to do at this stage in the game (had I abs like Pam's, then I'd probably be happy to have this happen). Does this happen to anyone else? At first I thought it was just the cut of the Under Armor, but then I bought the Champion one and was frustrated to have the same issue.

Educate me. What are compression shirts all about i.e. purpose?

I don't really know...mostly they are just snugger than regular technical shirts. More like running tights, but for the upper body.

| I like loose shirts in the heat. Or singlets. |

| That's exactly why I don't wear those types of shirts, Zoomie! I have a long sleeved Under Amour one and it always rides up .. I'm forever tugging on it, and it annoys me. |

I wonder if this is more of an issues for us girls, since we have a more defined waist? I remember that the women's winner of the GR Marathon last Fall was wearing a short-sleeved Under Armor top and in all of the photos it wasn't riding-up, but she also wasn't particularly curvy and had more of a straight line from ribcage to waist.

Hmmm...no, should I? Is Trent wearing his post-it notes, again?

As soon as I clicked out of this thread and looked at the entire main board I knew exactly what you were talking about. I love when Trent gets bored!
