Women's Locker Room

Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.

  • I tried on the new FINA approved suits yesterday. To get my arms in was hard, too, although the hardest part for me was over my hips, and my hips are small. I have sore skin, too! The swimsuit sales woman told me LZR elite at least has hips! But I agree, you need the smaller size so you don't get the gapping on top. I'll read my instructions to see if there are any tips, but here's what I did: I brought the suit up as high as I could on my body. Then I closed my eyes and pictured the suit coming up over my arms and then over my shoulders and I pulled each arm in and I made it! Normally, the hips are my problem. But not on this suit. Okay.. I'm going to try the "picturing" idea. Thanks.
