mo2 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 I thought they were to prevent chafing. If that's the case, maybe I need to try them. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissel Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I thought they were to prevent chafing. I thought so too, though I know that for men they also serve a second purpose :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6packofun Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Yes to the anti-chafing, but they make compression capris and tights, too, particularly for runners and one main purpose is to support certain muscle groups. There are some that have panels to support hamstrings and/or quads, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy2BeautifulGirls Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I just typed a report today where the doctor is having the patient wear them while running because she has pain from high hamstring syndrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WishboneDawn Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I am always glad I don't have dangly parts. :D Just wait my dear. The b00ks will fall and then you'll have your dangly parts.:glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo2 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 Just wait my dear. The b00ks will fall and then you'll have your dangly parts.:glare: :iagree: Hence the need for a super-supportive sports bra. Embarrassing question: Would compression shorts prevent the fat on my thighs from jiggling so much when I run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I am always glad I don't have dangly parts. :D OR sensitive parts that chafe when I run. I was in a running store with my husband last year and was cracking up over the day-glo yellow-green "pasties". He suddenly developed an interest. :001_huh: Yeah, evidently, when you are a person without a jog b00kshelf there is chafing. Though no one has explained the color choice to me yet. You can't chafe without a shirt and you can see the neon pasties with one, so I remain confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may need a wetsuit for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delaney Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 OMG I just saw this thread and yelled out the question to DS(16). "To keep your junk from flyin' around" was his answer:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
