Any volleyball players self conscious about spandex?

Question

we have to start wearing spandex this year.im not fat but everyone else on the team is like the size of a stick. did anyone else feel this way or am i just being..weird?

Answer 1

I didn't really care about wearing spandex. it's pretty comfy except when they ride up lol (the underwear riding up.)

Answer 2

i love my spandies

Answer 3

All the girls in my school volleyball program (both JV and Varsity) are either super skinny, or have really nicely toned legs. I, on the other hand, have "thunder thighs", and a bit of inner fatty thighs that touch. But I love my spandex, I could wear them all day everyday if I could. You have to realize, that you're on the team because your legs can carry you around so that you can play, whether they're super skinny sticks or a bit more filled out and muscular. Being self conscious is fine- just don't let it get to you. No one really cares if you have thicker legs than the other girls if you're the one getting the balls up in the air so that the rest of the team can play on it. (=  

Answer 4

not really but ive gotten used to them

Answer 5

Nah... everyone else has to wear spandex so it's not like i was the only one.

the annoying thing about spandex is that i ALWAYS have to pull it down. my spandex ride up like crazy.

Answer 6

I felt that way to when i first tried out for my team and made it. Like you said I'm not fat but seriously everyone else on my team is literally as skinny as a stick! You'll get used to them eventually and you should grow to like them! Hope that made you feel a little better :) !!  

Answer 7

Oh god yes,...no one else seems to think so but i think i've got "thunder thighs" so wearing spandex makes me quite self conscious and uncomfortable...not to mention panty lines arent very attractive and i hate thongs so i'm kinda stuck...oh well.

Answer 8

Trust me it's not as bad as you think. I and my friends felt that way too. Once you wear them they are actually comfy and you'll for get about them in the game. P.S. I got a bigger jersey to help cover part of my backside!

Answer 9

At first I was like, "I have to wear WHAT?!?!?" LOL they are just something that you have to get used to. If you don't like how short they are, then ask your coach if you can buy a pair of longer ones. (Tell her it is for religious reasons, and she can't say "No.") LOL
