Compression Shorts

[Boo2]

Only recently have I started to use compression shorts under my gym shorts to the gym...but, to be quite honest, I prefer wearing loose fitting underwear. The caveat to that however, was that as I use the running or elliptical machines, there is an audible slapping noise as my package hits the side of my legs...it feels great, but I cringe especially when there are people close by. On the other hand, the compression shorts, really compresses everything, to where it feels a bit uncomfortable. Any comments or suggestions?

As an addition to this thread, I do plan on joining a Hot Yoga group where one is dressed in nothing more than a compression shorts. So any advice on that front would be welcome.

I don't care for them .. So hard to get off when really sweaty .
I prefer a jockstrap or boxer briefs

briefs keep everything nicely in place and compact without the leg suffocation

Saxx

One other thing I was trying to get away from, is a 100% cotton soggy briefs! The Saxx underwear looks interesting...though it may end up being the same scenario as the compression shorts.

If its an either or time, I choose jockstrap over compression shorts. when we are practicing in compression shorts as our outerwear, I always wear a jockstrap under my compression shorts..

I prefer compression shorts because I feel like they give me more overall support. I have some by Adidas that are very short and trunk-like in shape that are my favorite.

Wear briefs or a jock. You'll get used to it.

As for your hot yoga, just wear something dark colored and double lined. If you don't like the outline wear a jock.

Thanks for the advice. I don't mind the outline though for yoga. As long as I'm not the only one. Lol.

Interestingly, I decided to go back to my old ways of wearing the briefs today at the gym...I don't know if it was the "freeness" that I felt, but as I began my cardio on the elliptical machine...the 'slap, slap' of my package hitting against my legs almost produced a raging hard-on! I had to think of everything horrible under the sun in order to stop it! Thankfully, I averted a horrifying scenario. Lol. The first time for me. It felt good though...��. Not sure I want that happening again.

I don't care for comp shorts, nor do I understand their ubiquity. They do NOT support your nuts the way a jock does, or a jockbrief. Skip them and get a jock and some shorts. Or, if you have to wear them at yoga (odd, that),wear a jock underneath.
As for the slap, slap, are you asking us to believe that in a GYM with machines people can hear your cock slap? in compression shorts?

LOL...no no. I was not wearing compression shorts at that time, sorry for the misunderstanding, I was wearing a semi-loose fitting brief. As well, I'm in an exceedingly small gym...it's not like most American gyms that are huge in comparison. So, yup, the cardio machines are rather close to each other...I could easily touch the person next to me by half extending my arm...also I may have been just a bit self conscious, as I could hear the sound myself and just thought that they being so close to me, may also hear it. I also choose the least busiest times at the gym, when it's not so crowded. Again, it may just be me...thank you for your advice and comments.

Compression shorts are the way to go. Just position your cock correctly, no problem.
Not only do they look hot.They make your pants fit better. My b/f is a shower at 8 x6 and has no complaints wearing them for any activity.We are actually both switching over to them instead of underwear.
Lots of guys around here are wearing them with low riders showing them off. Real sexy. There are some with nice pouches too. I have seen guys brave enough to run in them too.

Yeah, I don't get the whole compression short thing, either. They always just felt tight and annoying to me. They give minimal support, and I don't really feel the need for support, personally, anyway. If you need "support," wear a jock. If not, just freeball or wear whatever underwear you normally do.

I must admit, they do look hot on me...maybe I would just use them only for the Hot Yoga class whenever I get the chance to try it. On another note, I've heard that wearing very tight underwear actually decreases one's sperm count. Not sure how true that is.

I bought a pair of compression shorts to wear in a Tough Mudder event earlier this summer. I wanted something that gave some support but would dry quickly since you're in and out of muddy water a lot in these events. I didn't wear anything under or over them so I had a bit of VPL going on ... see a pic I put in my gallery. I got a number of double-takes but no one said anything.

The compression shorts were perfect for the mudder. Just enough support and dried quickly. I suppose I should have worn a jock or briefs or something under them, but they never would have dried.

i have to agree that briefs are good to wear for exercise (e.g running), or tight boxer shorts. haven't really worn compression short myself, i can imagine they offer good support, but might cling to your thighs too much when you sweat.
