SportSoul Cotton Gym & Athletic Abdomen Support (XL, Dark Grey, Navy Blue, Grey)

SportSoul Cotton Gym & Athletic Supporter or athletic supporter consists of an elastic waistband with a support pouch for the male genitals and two elastic straps attached to the base of the pouch and to the left and right sides of the waistband at the hip. The biggest benefit is the ability to add a protective cup in the pouch. The purpose of a supporter is to hold the male genitals in place and suppress excessive motion. A hard blow without a cup can end up in building of excess fluid in scrotum. In the gym, certain exercises like squats or deadlifts can put undue pressure and downward pull on muscles and organs, resulting in congenitally weak spots bearing a tremendous burden, and ultimately leading to hernia.
