Singlet question
« on: March 23, 2009, 12:31:26 PM »
Ok, how tight are they suppost to be???!!  I Never wore one before. When I last competed I wore the Z Suit for squats, and the champion suit to bench & deadlift. Why I didn't have a singlet for the latter 2 lifts I have no idea LOL. Anyway, Damm it's tight!! not in the legs or waist but in the chest. I have trouble pulling up the straps. It's from Inzer and it's a size Med = 145-165 LBS. –   I weigh right now 159 lbs. Next size is large from 165-195 LBS. That sound like it might be to big. 

I thought it would be snug, form fitting ect  but this tight???   Feels like I have a bench shirt on as far as the tightness goes !

Z suit and champion suit aren't singlets. they are old school single ply squat suits.

I know!  I'm saying thats all I wore. Never wore a singlet. Thats why I was asking if it's suppost to fit real tight, or just snug.

Singlet is not for support like a suit is. I wouldnt test the seams if ya know what Im saying.  ;)
