to the gym swimming pool? I am going to try to join a local gym and swim there as exercise during the summer. I am a 14-year old guy who knows how to swim but I want to go there just to practice and improve my endurance. However, I only have swimming trunks. I know that will improve my performance greatly if I wear speedos because speedos reduce drag better than swimming trunks do. However, I do not know the questions I should ask my parents so that way they can go out and buy me a speedo (and not the jammers because I heard that speedos are better than jammers so hey why not get the speedos instead?). Since I am not joining a swim team, it is not required for me to wear a speedo at the gym swimming pool because they don't care what you wear into the pool as long as its covering your front side and your behinds. What questions should I ask my parents so that they can go out and buy me a speedo? For example, I thought of one question (which is not enough) and that is (to pretend to be a not know it all) "Mom (or dad) why do people at the gym swimming pool wear speedos to swim there? And why are they always fast?" Then my mom or dad would probably answer "Because speedos increase your performance in the water." And I would be like "Well I didn't know that." And from this point on, I do not know if they will be like "Well, do you want to go buy a speedo and try it out" or if they will say "Yeah." and buy me nothing leaving me with my swimming trunks which also leaves me slower than other people at the gym swimming pool. Please help me come up with other questions I should ask my parents when I want to wear speedos to the local gym swimming pool.
