Compression Shorts or Jock

[cdog204]

Compression shorts or the UnderArmour BoxerJock, which is similar. I don't like the straps on the jock.

An old school wide-band Bike jockstrap. Good support and keeps everything cool.

Many thanks for insightful responses.

Up until 2 years ago, it was always a jock. Switched to UA compression short (nothing underneath); definitely cooler and doesn't retain sweat in the grion area.

Never tried UnderArmour BoxerJocks. Might be worth a try.

Jockstrap. It's always worked for me, and the open back keeps me cooler. Comp shorts don't work well, as others have said, because my junk hangs too low.

I use compression shorts that have a pocket for a cup. The cup is huge and padded so it has saved my balls. I don't use a jock or other underwear with the shorts. They are tight enough.

I like jockey shorts with a shot of spandex in 'em. They hug my ass gently, and keep my low hangers under control.

Essential for biking, particularly - if I wear my usual boxers, my nuts wind up getting squeezed between the seat and my thigh.

Jock strap. Just love putting them on and working out in them.

Basic gym workout - commando
Cardio at the gym - jock

Never tried compression shorts. The standard leg size to waist size ratio doesn't work for me on most boxer briefs, I can't imagine it's any different for compression shorts.

I wear both at different times....compression shorts I usualy just wear briefs..

UA compression shorts commando styleee. It feels like im training naked and free.

Again, thanks ... much appreciated feedback ... I've always worn jock, but see many others in compression shorts ... so I have now worn comp shorts for last few days .... doesn't seem my package is secure enough, but it is (no problems running or on stairmaster) ... I think I like comp shorts ... but will still wear jock sometimes. Thoughts?

Nothing wrong with wearing both...whatever is comfortable.

 

[D_CountVonBhigBohner]

both have advantages as well as disadvantages....but I wear both depending on the situation

For running, I wear just compression shorts with a thong underneath.

For working out at the gym, I wear gym shorts with a thong or jock underneath.

Depends on which I grab first.

 

[CowboyJosh]

I always wear a jock, mostly because I enjoy wearing 'em.
