Ladies Gym Thread - Don't skip arm days.

Do you guys wear thermal leggings during early winter? I'm thinking of getting a pair but I don't know if they can withstand single digit Celsius weather. Or should I just layer up with a pair of jeans over my leggings?

For running in the winter (like -4 to +8 Celsius if my conversions are right) I wear leggings with sweat pants or loose yoga pants on top. A double layer of anything traps a lot of heat to keep you cozy. I have a couple pairs of Underarmor Coldgear leggings which are noticeably warmer than regular leggings, but not warm enough to be worn alone when it's freezing, the wind still cuts right through them.

If you're just looking to stay warm on your way to the gym I think a pair of jeans on top of regular leggings would be warm enough and convenient for changing when you get there. When working out inside a gym, I think thermal leggings would be too warm.
