Why Lifters Choose Quads of the Gods Gym Shorts
Squat-Proof Construction: Heavy compound lifts demand shorts that can handle the load. Our reinforced stitching and premium fabric blend ensure zero transparency and maximum durability, even during your heaviest sets.

Finding Your Perfect Fit: Quads of the Gods Shorts Size Guide
Quads of the Gods gym shorts are engineered with an athletic fit specifically designed for lifters with developed leg muscles. Unlike standard gym shorts that are cut for average builds, our lifting shorts account for larger quads, hamstrings, and glutes while maintaining a performance-focused silhouette.
Important: Our shorts run tighter on the legs than conventional athletic shorts. This fitted design prevents ride-up during squats, lunges, and leg presses while showcasing the muscle you've earned. Many customers with significant quad development prefer to size up for optimal comfort without sacrificing the performance fit.
How to Measure for Gym Shorts
For the most accurate fit, measure your waist at the point where you'd naturally wear the shorts (typically at or slightly below the navel). Use a flexible measuring tape and measure around your natural waistline without pulling tight or leaving slack.
Between sizes? We recommend sizing up, especially if you have muscular legs or prefer more room in the thighs. The elastic waistband with drawstring allows you to customize the fit around your waist while the 4-way stretch fabric accommodates leg movement.
Size-Specific Fit Notes
-
Small (28-30" waist): Best for lean builds or those new to serious lifting
-
Medium (30-32" waist): Our most popular size for average athletic builds
-
Large (32-34" waist): Ideal for intermediate to advanced lifters with developed legs
-
XL (34-36" waist): Designed for serious mass builders and powerlifters
-
2XL (36-38" waist): Maximum room for heavily muscled athletes
-
3XL (38-40" waist): Our largest size for elite-level bodybuilders
All measurements are in inches and refer to waist circumference. Quads of the Gods shorts feature premium 4-way stretch material that moves with you while maintaining shape through countless training sessions.
▼ Click to Read: Why Quads of the Gods Are Built Different
Engineered Specifically for Leg Day Performance
When you're pushing heavy weight on leg day, the last thing you need is your shorts riding up mid-squat. That's why we engineered the Quads of the Gods with a 3-inch inseam—the optimal length for serious bodybuilders and powerlifters who demand both performance and style.
Most gym shorts are designed for casual fitness enthusiasts or runners. They ride up, bunch at the waist, or use cheap materials that lose their shape. The Quads of the Gods shorts are purpose-built for lifters with serious leg development.
The 3-Inch Inseam Advantage
The 3-inch inseam isn't just a style choice—it's a performance decision backed by biomechanics. When you're hitting depth on squats, dropping into the hole on deadlifts, or pushing through high-rep leg press sets, fabric bunching and restriction can throw off your form and limit your power output.
Longer inseams (5-7 inches) create excess fabric that rides up during compound movements, causing constant readjustment between sets. They also restrict hip mobility at the bottom of squats and can create uncomfortable chafing on heavy volume days.
The 3-inch inseam eliminates these problems entirely. You get full range of motion, zero mid-set adjustments, and a fit that stays locked in place no matter how deep you squat or how explosive your movements get.
Premium Materials That Move With You
We don't cut corners on materials. The Quads of the Gods shorts use a premium polyester-spandex blend (88% polyester, 12% spandex) that delivers the perfect balance of durability, stretch, and moisture management.
The 4-way stretch fabric moves with your body through every rep, while maintaining its structure and shape even after hundreds of washes. The moisture-wicking properties keep you dry during high-intensity training sessions, and the quick-dry technology means these shorts are ready to go again within hours.
The elastic waistband features an internal drawstring for customizable fit—critical for lifters who fluctuate between bulking and cutting phases. No more shorts that fit perfectly one month and slide down the next.
Reflective Print Technology
The signature Quads of the Gods reflective print isn't just aesthetic—it's a statement. The reflective technology catches gym lighting and creates a subtle glow effect that separates you from the crowd of generic black shorts and bland athletic wear.
The reflective print serves as tribal identification for other serious lifters who recognize commitment when they see it. This is Shredded Army gear—not for everyone.
Designed for Bodybuilder Proportions
If you've been lifting seriously for years, you know the frustration: shorts that fit your waist are too tight in the legs, or shorts that fit your legs are too loose in the waist. Standard athletic wear sizing doesn't account for developed quad and glute mass.
The Quads of the Gods shorts are cut specifically for bodybuilder proportions. The leg opening is generous enough to accommodate serious leg development without looking baggy. The rise is tailored for lifters who actually have muscle mass in their glutes and hips. And the waistband sizing accounts for the V-taper physique.
Size & Fit Guide
How should these fit? Snug at the waist with the drawstring adjusted to your preference, comfortable through the hips and glutes, and with enough room in the thighs to move freely without feeling restricted. The 3-inch inseam should sit mid-thigh on most builds.
Sizing recommendations:
-
Small: 28-30" waist, 20-22" thighs
-
Medium: 30-32" waist, 22-24" thighs
-
Large: 32-34" waist, 24-26" thighs
-
XL: 34-36" waist, 26-28" thighs
-
XXL: 36-38" waist, 28-30" thighs
Between sizes? If you're between sizes, consider your thigh development. If you've got serious leg mass, size up. If you're leaner or prefer a tighter fit, stay with your usual size.
Care Instructions
To keep your Quads of the Gods shorts performing at their best:
- Machine wash cold with like colors
- Tumble dry low or hang dry (hang dry preferred for longevity)
- Do not bleach or iron
- Wash inside-out to protect the reflective print
Frequently Asked Questions
Do these shorts ride up during squats and deadlifts?
No. The 3-inch inseam and elastic waistband design keep the shorts in place during all compound movements. You won't need to adjust mid-set.
What's the inseam length exactly?
3 inches measured from crotch seam to hem. This is the optimal length for lifters who want mobility and style without excess fabric.
How do these compare to Gymshark or other brands?
The Quads of the Gods shorts feature a shorter inseam (3" vs 5-7"), premium Australian design, reflective print technology, and sizing specifically for bodybuilder proportions. They're built for serious lifters, not casual fitness enthusiasts.
Are these good for cardio or just lifting?
While designed primarily for lifting, the moisture-wicking fabric and comfortable fit make them suitable for any high-intensity training. That said, if you're training legs properly, you won't have much energy left for cardio anyway.
Can I wear these outside the gym?
Absolutely. The Quads of the Gods shorts work as lifestyle wear—throwing them on for casual outings, running errands, or any situation where you want comfort and the confidence that comes with wearing gear that represents something bigger.
What's your return policy?
30-day returns for unworn items with tags attached. We're confident you'll love these shorts, but if sizing doesn't work out, we've got you covered.
Do you restock sold-out sizes?
Yes. Popular sizes (M/L) tend to sell out during drops, but we restock regularly. Join our email list to get notified when your size is back in stock.

This is more than apparel. This is tribal identification. This is the Shredded Army.
