Do you even compress, bro? Compression shorts are more than a crucial component of any well-planned workout fit: at a certain point, they’re also plain old good etiquette. I’m not trying to peep your «set of barbells» every time I walk past the leg press, my guy. Compression shorts add a critical extra layer and help reduce soreness in the long-term—they’re truly a no-brainer.
To paraphrase N.W.A: Compress yourself. Stop leaving every unsuspecting passerby innocently poking around the squat rack permanently scarred. We live in a society!
