When you do different activities, like running, yoga, pilates, regular classes, weight lifting, spin, do you wear different types of clothes?

I very my clothes based on the workout. Being a retired runner I can't stand to run in regular shorts, I have to wear running shorts because they don't ride and they breathe. But, I can't wear running shorts when I lift weights because they are too short and I don't want to be seen in a compromising position in my iddy bitties. So, for aerobics and weights I'll wear lifting shorts or something similar. My other activities require clothing changes (tkd and swimming). I thought about getting something for yoga so my panties don't show, but I only have a couple weeks left before maternity clothes (ugh!).

i'll wear whatever works for the activity, which means that to some extent i do wear different things for different activities. but there is also a lot of overlap. i wore my bathing suit top as a jog bra/running top when i ran to the gym on sunday. i'll wear pretty much anything that is clean for a step class. on the other hand,

Well I am guilty of being a workout clothes fanatic.
