Default tired muscles

Yes, I can understand that they are appreciated by some athletes as jammers are in effect compression shorts, assisting with physical stamina.
What needs to be pointed out however is that the satisfaction of achieving a new personal-best time does not equate with a win in competition.
The runner has to break the line first and the swimmer still has to touch the wall first.
If the guy in the next lane is also wearing his best jammers in order to beat you (100% visible in most championship meets now) why don't we even it all up and just go back to speedos?
