This may be a "southern" thing. I'm not sure. If they got caught in a pinch, they'd probably just as well wear those long, baggy Bannana Republic trunks, if they didn't weigh them down 40 pounds in the water. So, right off the bat, they've got this nagging psychological hang up about being out there, bare to the world, too much for them, even in a "jammer. Is it a moral Victorian, prudish thing? But some "Jammers" wear "jammers" because, okay, let's get this over with, they have overlapping gut flaps, that a skimpy suit would just morbidly expose.
Or, maybe they have "size issues. A true, veteran swimmer is generally sheen-like, polished, and wired to go like a shaved terrier dog, he will walk un-strutfully out to the deck in his skimpy speedo, without giving a thought in the world that he is wearing barely nothing, exposed to the world.
He waits for the clock and goes. He was probably a "Jammer" wearer at one time, but no longer. He has lost his innocence. Everything must be peeled off and skimped for speed. If a friend catches him in his "skimps," well screw it, so what?
He was waiting on a lane. He's the lowest on the food chain. This was the triathlete swimmer guy in the Desoto Unisex shorts, with the big bag full of Zoomer fins, and Aqua Vision Ironman goggles. Slow as shit. But tricked out, with everything from tri-zone.
He just reeked "I do triathlons. I was watching that guy more than anybody else, because that was me several years ago. I wish somebody would have told me how stupid that looked. He was sort of agitated about "waiting on a lane," and I wanted to walk over there and tell him, "you ain't shit, and your nickname ain't even doo-doo. You can't tell him from the skimpy speedo swimmers when he swims, and you can't tell him different from the good runners, when he's running, and so on.
He's incognito. Post 2 of 67 views. Booth, I admit, I'm a jammer swimmer, have been for years. Why do I wear a jammer? Because I have black shorts on underneith that jammer, and I'm saving the world the displeasure of seeing that, as well as myself the issue of shaving all the way up I'm afraid of getting ingrown hairs. BTW, the fastest swimmers at my pool sub 5 min all wear drag suits for practice, the black, square leg nylon mesh variety.

Speedos and me just don't work, especially if my legs ain't shaved. What I still don't get is triathletes and hydration.
Guys, if you're going for a ride, you just don't need two bottles on the frame, two behind the seat, and a bottle between the aerobars. I'm not kidding. I see this all the time. The more high-zoot the bike, the more likely it is to be loaded like a camel. What gives?? It's OK to fill up on a training ride. Have some freaking self respect. Don't train in tri shorts. Don't train in tri tops. That stuff is for racing. We are a community of total geeks.
I don't mean this in a good way. You can always spot a triathlete on a run. He's bound to be wired up like the bionic man meets bubble boy. Do you really need GPS to get in a 4 mile run??? Does the effectiveness of our training really rely on a constellation of satellites??
Who can we blame if we roll an ankle You're making me really rethink the jammers thing. I'm quite slow. Maybe I'll break out my speedo for masters tomorrow. It's a size too small. Post 4 of 67 views. I'm joking, people. Kind of. I wear Jammers, too. Most of the time. Post 5 of 67 views. Look at Thorpe in that bodysuit. I say show up with one of those on and impress the poolmates.

TYR is another heavy-hitter in the swimming gear market, with top-tier athletes including Katie Ledecky, Ryan Lochte, and Cody Miller on their roster of sponsored athletes. The Durafast is the training alternative to their popular racing jammer, the TYR Venzo, which I also reviewed recently. Unlike the Venzo, however, and its hefty price tag and wildly hydrodynamic fabric that lasts only a few dozen races, the TYR Durafast Training Jammer is designed for longevity.
It has drawstrings key for going ultra-fast , is available in three different solid colors, and will last you the season. Another jammer from TYR is on our list, simply because this suit is tough. The suit comes in a variety of color combinations that are sure to make you stand out, and the poly fiber and circular knit construction is a solid punch of stretchiness and durability.
The suit has all the standard stuff you would expect from a lap training jammer: Adjustable drawstrings to keep your suit comfortable and secure, a long-lasting fabric designed to withstand pool chemicals, and plenty of colors and solid colors to choose from.
