Best Answer

jockstrap, it protects and get the job done.


ANSWER 2: WHICH MAKES SENSE

Jockstraps are exposing, uncomfortable, chafe easily, and are otherwise obsolete. Compression shorts (w/ cup for protection) are super comfortable, they don't expose anything, can be worn as regular underwear, and many come with padding for legs. Unlike the nasty jockstrap, compression shorts keep the muscles warm and keep your muscles in place, lowering the chance of injury or sprains greatly.

Jockstraps are way more logical. Plus, more and more men are shifting back to them. Go to a gym and see for yourself!

Compression shorts provide support for your thighs and glutes. But jockstraps do a better job supporting your genitals and keeping things from bouncing. They also tend to be cooler, since there's less material.

Depending how they fit, you might want to. Sometimes the legs are tight, but they don't really support your genitals - a jockstrap is designed to keep them in place better.

When playing lacrosse should you wear your jock and cup over or under your compression shorts?

I wear my jock and cup over my compression shorts. My compression shorts have a contour pouch that keeps my junk contained, so it stays under the cup. The above answer is totally incorrect! You should wear your compression shorts over your cup-jockstrap so that the compression shorts hold your cup tight against your body! If you wear your cup over your compression shorts, your cup might not fit tight to your body and a blow there could just slam the cup against your testicles, causing pain and possible injury. Some cup-jockstraps do not hold the cup firmly in place against the body.
