Here is something that has yet to be discussed,(might be a reason for it).
What do members wear when sprinting - bodysuits ,split shorts ,tights ,midcuts ,thongs ,bikinis ,nothing …?
What do you find are most comfortable?
Yes i will send a phote and a video, when i get the equipment to do that.
Stop X - please - no more encouragement - especially - no photos … !!!
interesting thread mate 
hmm, before i start running its just daggy tracksuit, then as i get warmer i progressively strip until im wearing just lycra shorts and singlet, or ato boldon style with black tights and no top…

totally depends on climate and weather conditions

Not for me, thongs and nothing else all year round.
Outdoor training either 1 or 2 pairs of tights plus t-shirt/sweater depending on the weather. Some sprinters reckon tights (only talking 1 pair here) restricts their movement, but I think this is just imaginary. What do you think?
richard in the past i’ve been very glad wearing 2 pairs of tights with no problems.in actual fact i would have worn womans tights if i could,thats if they really do work-of course:P
Well last year i use to wear shades in all weather conditions. I usaully wear a nike track suit or adidasall times.
But this year i have taken off the shades because i wnt people to see my face, and if any sprinters that i will see around the stadium i want then to see me. All the people who i will compete against i will just starr at them with no exspress i won’t even shake hands with them at the begining.
The trainners i wear are ADIDAS CLIMA COOL and i were NIKE AIR MAX.
When i compete i just go naked, my club coaches just said to the UKATHLETICS that i have mental problems and track and feild is the only thing that is keeping me alive.
Well i remeber once when i was doing the rely (i was naked naked all out) i was runing the thrid leg and when i tried to hand the batton over my team mate grabed my ???
JUST KIDDING PEOPLE JUST KIDDING, i have a professional image.
I wear a vest and split nike shorts with little nike socks and asiscs spikes. They are the best spikes i have had in my life they are dead comfortable and support me.
I don’t wear no chains or rings.
cool your very co-ordinated indeed.good man,nike and addidas go well together plus asics of course
co-ordinated!! haha… that was funny X.
In training on warm days i go out in adidas wind pants, shorts, and spandex shorts underneath. and i wear a tee shirt ,sleevelsss shirt and nike dri fit tank top underneath. as i am warming up i take layers off. i also wear a nike headband and 1 wristband. and take off the wristband if i need to wear my nike watch to time a workout.
my rule is if its coooler than 60 degrees i wear long tights.
On the track. Tights, singlet and long sleeve top, beanie and gloves during winter night sessions.
I usual wear the above unless it is seriously warm (anything above 25 degree celsius).
When i am in training i just wear a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. Also i wear my adidas spikes. (powerfull shit).
When it is cold i just wear track suit bottoms.
I don’t like wearing tights because it makes me feel gay! even when i compete i don’t like wearing lycra shorts. I am 5"10 1/2 and 10stone 1lb and when i wear lyrca it makes me feel weird.
Soemtimes wehn it is hot in training i just take my shirt off! and train. I like doing this because these girls who go to the gym always watch and cheer me on. Sometimes it destracts e but it makes me try and impress on every run.
shumon apparently lyric isn’t used because “it makes you look gay”.LC wore lycra shorts all the time for a reason,trust me there is a reason for lycra materials but i’m not 100% sure aboput my reason.has anyone got any valid uses why lycra is used
i might try and find a yellow body suit to go with my asics spikes.
what you got,the yellow/blue shoes.hmm you’ll look like the green machine-dennis mitchell…you got to send us photos shumon
good man shumon,make sure you put it on the humourous and things that make us laugh thread.
haha, thats for sure.
i was talking to some coaches at the simplot games and we were watching a 22 footish long jumper competing in a baggy shirt and basketball shorts, and they said that these could be taking up to a mile an hour off his speed. that can’t be true can it?
Seems like everybody wears tight clothing in competition so as to reduce drag.
