i'm one of the only guys on my team that foen't wear a drag suit. do drag suits make that big a difference?
if so is there a drag suit that has VERY LITTLE DRAG that i can wear to get use to at first? (eventually i'd buy one with more drag)
I always wear two suits - one new-ish, tight-ish one to "hold it all together" and another old-ish, loose-ish one to "cover it all up." I definitely feel the difference when I go to my "racing suit" only at meets. And I don't think it prevents me from swimming fast in practice - I blame all slow swimming on my slacker gene.
I may give the legging thing a try - savers is having a 50% off sale on all used clothes this weekend - maybe I'll pick some up to sacrifice to the pool gods.
I think the drag suit is a good idea even if it's just a head game
