Yeah, so I have noticed for the last 3 or 4 swims that I have not been "gliding" through the water as easily as when I was shaving my legs all the time during the summer for cycling season. I've gotten lazy in the last week since there haven't been many days to get out on the bike and wear shorts...thus sporting smooth legs. For some reason I am feeling definite drag in the pool as I'm swimming - could it be a psychological thing or ???
It's hard to say, but I think I will do a little leg maintenance tomorrow and see if there is a difference on Wednesday.
I'll report later this week....should be interesting.
I like your desire for research! But as an ex-competitive swimmer, I can assure you that shaving will REALLY help. I even shaved my arms before the big meets! :)
