What is the material like? Would these be too odd-ball for lifting at the gym? Yoga?

Not at all. The material is what you would expect for Martial Arts pants, but there are different colors to choose from. I would not be uncomfortable wearing them to the gym at all. They are a very good quality material, maybe a little on the thick side if you get hot really easy though.

I think they would be too thick for that. Look for something thinner. They are also kind of stiff and would be uncomfortable for that kind of use. They are good, I wanted a heavier pair to wear when it is colder. I forgot that once I get going the cold does not matter.

I would describe the material to be similar to jeans and would think they would be fine for use at the gym or for yoga. The only thing I would consider as "odd-ball" is there is a tag on the front (which you can see in the the picture) and the bottoms don't have as much taper at the ankle as other karate pants.

They do have body vs flexibility. I use them for my "coaching" needs and to hold patterns. They are not the real stiff ones, but they will stay up if they are supported. I believe this is the medium strength.

I bought these for my daughter, she wore them during hot yoga with no problem, and that was LOTS of sweat! Hope this helps...

For rehearsal, may work. they are thick enough to be conspicuous under loose yoga pants.

Polyester material. They work awesome for crossfit and running. I have four pair :)

I personally wouldn't wear wraps for that. For machines or Yoga I would use more of a fitted knee support, rather than a wrap. I generally use wraps when I'm lifting heavier than normal weight. The only machine I would use them on is possibly a press machine or squat machine.

sure, but i wouldn't use them for that. They probably won't last you very long if you do any serious lifting. Plus, you usually want to have the fingertips cut off for lifting to offer more breathability. Personally, i use Harbinger wrist wrap gloves for lifting (about $20), which last me several years, and have the added bonus of the wrist wrap to support the wrist when lifting really heavy weights.

I lift pretty heavy for my weight and sweat profusely. They work well for all my lifting and do not get soaked during my 2 hr lifting/cardio cycle. The wrist support helps a lot for the heavier lifts. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't recommend these for gym use. They might stay put, but they might not if you are on a treadmill or moving too much. I also think the over the ear design would get sweaty on your ears.

I too have basal joint arthritis and use these for the computer and they are great. These are pretty stiff and don't allow for bending so I personally wouldn't wear them to the gym. They wouldn't allow for the flexibility you need to bend around weights, etc.

These are not your typical Yoga stlye pants, they are not see thorugh so you could use them for Yoga. In my opinion these are compression shorts you were under other shorts for muscle support.

you could use them for a home gym/cardio. They're pretty thick/soft. They look like something that would be in a kids room, so as long as you're ok with that.

For me personally, I won't recommend wearing these in a gym. But you know your body system and how much you can bare without wearing.

I haven't used it in the gym. they are a bit heavy though - you might want to take that into consideration when using them at the gym.

They are quite thin. I was happy in the mountains in spring, but they won't work for a winter hike. They are loose fitting but not baggy - underarmor would probably be fine, but nothing bulkier than that.

I wish I could answer your question better. I bought this for my husband, but he never wears it because he says it is uncomfortable. As far as weight lifting....probably not. they don't go up high enough on you waist and lower back for that.

These are ankle weights--of very high quality--but sized for ankles. Unless your wrist circumference is very large the ends of the weights would likely overlap. I don't know how this would feel; it would look a little strange. On balance I think you'd do better to get a good pair of wrist weights.
