"Under Armor"

Post by Guest_2 »

Alright, so a few of these postings about urinating blood has gotten me thinking...Why is this occuring? And then it came to me...

I hopped out of the shower this morning and dried off. Just walking to the laundry room I passed a Mr. Sandbag and couldn't resist picking it up to kick around a little. I'm home alone, so I just toss the towel into the dirty laundry and begin a few atw's, when I switch to a quick legover>mirage and-IT HITS ME- A horrible, terrible, unbearable, momentary testicular whiplash!

It sucked- which brings me to my point-

I've never had this happen while shredding with underwear on. And this brought me to a thesis: The 'armor' for which we wear under our clothes, is important!

Me? I've had the most success with boxer briefs. The comfort you want, the support you need 8)

So, what do you trust as your "Under Armor"?

I have in the past (not in footbag) tended to get rashes between my legs when I sweat, at the point where they chafe. As a result, whenever I do vigorous activity, such as running or footag, I wear underarmor-- the actual stuff you can buy. This has the added benefit of keeping you locked in, so to speak, so your balls can't go willy nilly. :wink:

I used to be a boxers guy and then Brad told me to try boxer briefs. I didn't like it at first cause I felt kinda restricted, but now I shall never go back ! For just day to day wear, they're comfortable, but when it comes to footbag, it gives a lot more support so you're not banging your goods around so much.

I got big-ass nuts. I need something that'll keep them hairy bastards from banging into my knees and shins while I kick. And just to be safe I wear shorts that are no shorter than a 10" inseam. No one wants to see a hanging brain...

Boxer briefs all the way. Anything less is indecent (and exessive) exposure.










It just dawned on me that this is why I always get hit playing Crotchfire.

boxer briefs, they're tight enough to keep it all in, but not cut them off :wink:

When I shred I wear my shorts with nothing under them. But I always make sure to get the shorts with that thin neting material inside of them.
I used to wear boxers underneath but found that I couldnt atomic as well because it pulled the material of the boxer shorts.

Haha umm...I got lured into here the wrong way. Yeah I wear Under Armour--the long sleeve shirt that keeps me warm in the wintertime when I shred. Other than that, I stick to regular, actually I prefer the sporty kind of, underwear under my shorts! And my balls don't go anywhere! :)

I didn't think it'd apply to too many footbaggers out there, so the I left it as a joke under the "Stolen from your"
However, if it is your choice of armour, let us know why.

I personally think the bikini briefs are waaay too constrictive

I do too. I love the stuff. I wear primarily the Heat Gear or Loose Gear. I was considering buying their sport boxers but the price tag kept me away. I've kicked in compression shorts from other brands and they are great in the support role with the added bonus of superior ventilation (in comparison to cotton). The only thing I don't like is the length... if I could find them cheaper than the Under Armour brand with a shorter inseam I'd definately get it and kick in those instead of all cotton boxer briefs.

I agree with Nate!! Thongs are certainly the way to go...
keeping just enough covered, but without any extra material moving around.
I am not the only one.

Lol this thread is hilerious!

I wear satin boxers but have been meaning to get some cotten fitted boxers for a while (I think they are the boxer-briefs your talkin about) because satin does not streach at all! So it can be a little constricting. Cotton would streach much better and absorb a bit more sweat and urinated blood! ;)

No?

I usually wear boxer-briefs to shred, boxers for everything else (I've finally got the revolution stifled enough to where this is okay ;)).
I can play in boxers fine, though, if I forget to bring along the b-b's or don't have time to change; there's just a little more pop-out-age during shuffle.
