Wrestling & Sports In General

[SwimTeamSpeedo]

I always enjoyed the swim suit aspect of swimming, almost as much as the sport itself. To the point made above, as I got older, into high school and college, the work required to be competitive was hard. The chance to show it off in a very tiny, tightly fit suit that showed off every aspect of the body was part of the reward. Lots of guys who did not swim would ask how in the world I could wear such a tiny suit in front of people. A naive question for which there was no answer they would understand. The tiny suit was part of the art of the sport. Much like form fitting cycling attire is part of the colorful art of cycling. In swimming, I also always felt the guys had the advantage, our suits were less covering and more interesting than the female attire. It is why I love to run wearing a racing swim when at the beach (and in triathlons).

My second thought is that I think it is much more revealing for wrestlers in the form fitting singlets. At least swimmers had cold water and a pool. I had a freind who wrestled in high school and college. The times he had one of those "guy situations" he would tell me he had no way to hide it and no pool to jump into. He had it happen once while in an actual match and he said it was clearly displayed, even though he tried as much as he could to cover it. Clearly a predictament. It makes no sense, but to me a racing cut swimsuit is actually less showing than some larger form fit clothing.
