Question

cuz i've hurd ppl say its so they could run faster or w/e but idk if thats true..

and im afraid to shave my legs cuz their very hairy and it'll prolly grow back strong and prickely (i think thats a word..) lol. so what should i do??

Answer 1

If I remember from way back in high school, the gym coach said some players shave their legs because the leg hair can get caught in socks and pull out, which could take your focus away for just a split second.

I think it was the show sport science that disproved the shaving of legs makes you faster.

Best advice is do what you are comfortable with. If you find that as your socks slip down it pulls at the hair, shave them, if your socks don't bother your leg hair leave em as is.  

Answer 2

I'm on the swim team, and the guys have to shave their whole entire body because they take it so seriously. Head included...so i'm sure if it works in the water it works in the air. But then again I think its more of a mental thing. I'de shave it before a big game. As a girl it does grow back prickly...but not stronger. It'll be prickly at first but then it'll get back to normal. (Thats what they guys tell me)

Answer 3

Shave

Answer 4

that is odd

Answer 5

If you wanna be the best you have to make the sacrifice.  I would get them waxed.  It won't grow back as fast.

Answer 6

Thats a side effect of too much creatine in take. The story about that it makes a you a half second faster is a lie.
