yes.
Worked for me!
I am a rec runner who can run 17s for 5k, 2:50s for marathon and am getting faster as I build the muscle to do more miles. Never ran in HS or College. I've got some decent fuzz on my legs. Why shave? Aerodynamics? Cooling? Massage therapist gives you more for your money? Seriously, I don't know the answer.
only if you are a swimmer
Shaved legs = fast. It's science. Can't argue that.
No, but you do need to shave your legs to be gay.

Shaving your private parts to match could be dangerous.
If you're hairy you can't shave your legs. Ladies might not like that kind of look.

Added "just". Oops, my bad.
If your hairy do this:
Shave with hair buzzers and no guard. It looks the same, and no razorburn. It saves time too because you'll want to shave your a$$...no hair daisy dukes.
C'mon guys. I expected better out of LR. This is an easy one. Can I get one crude yet humorous answer? Now go do that voodoo that you do so well.
Wow, look at all you f-a-g-g-0-t-s! So GAY. You guys have big shaving parties? Bring your own towel and razor? Gayfers. Gee whiz. After you're finished shaving each other's legs, do you shave each other's gooches too? Might as well get it all off, right? F-a-g-s!

I totally agree. Along with all my "Focus on the Family" cult members, I believe that being gay is a disease that can be cured through prayer, ritualistic church attendance and the growth of as much leg hair as possible. In fact, a man who puts Rogaine on his legs is almost assured of getting the horn for a dutifully submissive member of the weaker sex.
cyclists do it for 2 reasons: leg massages and road rash
runners do it for leg massages
any other reason is for poseurs...

Like the caveman from the Geico commercials?? Super hairy.
It's okay for sprinters and people with awesome calves.
only shave your thighs because science has proven that only quads and hamstrings benefit from having hairless skin. the calves really dont need to be shaved, but the knee to hip region definately.
i did it just to look fast. i was also just curious to try it. i think it looks pretty good. veins and muscles stand out now
I think it makes the legs look intimidating, especially if you have somewhat muscular legs. The definition is more pronounced. I'm faster too. I think it might be psychological.
Fast = shaved legs.
Faster = shaved head.
Fastest = shaved balls!
