The Benefits of Spandex on the Court

The eighties left many of us with a nasty taste in our mouths when it comes to spandex, but when you're talking about sportswear there are many, many benefits to wearing this clingy material. Not only does it show off those well toned muscles, it also provides you with more freedom, flexibility and unhindered movement than the average gym short.

Ordinary cotton gym shorts make nice practice apparel because they're loose and comfortable; however, when you need the flexibility to move quickly and with a greater range of movement the fabric's own natural form actually slows you down. It doesn't matter how comfortable your gym shorts are, there is only so far they're going to stretch. Spandex stretches and moves with your body, and unless you're wearing spandex shorts that are two sizes too small (which is a story for another day) your shorts are going to move with your legs wherever they want to go.

Spandex also has the added benefit of holding in heat while at the same time allowing your legs to breathe, which is why so many runners love spandex and spandex/lycra blends for running in the wintertime. Spandex shorts and "sweat"pants will keep your legs warm during chilly practices (especially if you're a beach player) without halting your range of movement, making them the perfect choice for a practice where perfection is the only acceptable goal.

Not all spandex has to be the hot pink, striped abominations we loved to hate twenty years ago! (Although if you're interested there are some fun, funkadelic designs out there that really add personality to your practice clothes!) Today's athletic spandex is available in a wide variety of colors designed to conform to your uniform and your personal taste, making spandex the ideal choice for serious athletes.

Combining Fun with Funkadelic.

When choosing volleyball shorts, you will want to consider several factors. Among them are comfort, color, material, and durability. You want to make sure your shorts are comfortable while you are playing, both in practice and in games. If you are fashion conscious, color can also be a factor. You may want certain colors to use for practice shorts, and others for games. Either way, the possibilities are endless. The material you choose matters as well, since you will be wearing the shorts often and for a sporting event. Lastly, durability is an important factor. The fact that you are playing sports alone means you will want to wear shorts that will last through many wearings and washings. Ideally, you want shorts that combine all these factors into one product you can use over and over again. That is where Funkadelic Sport Shorts can help.
