Thanks to Under Armour technology, however, it doesn't have to be that way. With a high-quality pair of Under Armour shorts, you can have a stress-free workout every time.

Through warmups and cooldowns, whether you simply need shorts with pockets or ones that prevent you from overheating while running outside in the summer, there's a pair of Under Armour shorts to help you reach peak performance. Keep reading for a roundup of the brand's 12 best workout shorts.
