I just wear a set of medium trunks - light and a bit baggy. I'm not doing competition, and figure the extra drag makes my workout more productive.

It depends. Either swim trunks or boardshorts depending on how I want to look that day. But that's if I'm practicing on my own, if it's with a group, then it's whatever the majority are wearing.

jammer, drag suit (if you want), cap and goggles. That should suffice in my opinion.

I prefer a squarecut. It is comfortable and not dragging. It is not too revealing like a bikini or a racer, but not baggy like a swimming trunk or boardshorts.

I guess it all comes down to personal preference.

This is definitely the key statement! Make sure that you are comfortable in whatever you choose to wear! Don't just buy something because everybody else is buying it; make sure that you are getting something that you can improve in!

That was a nice advice, buy the one which you are comfortable to wear

Or how about whichever one gets you to your workout more often! I once tried a bulkier suit because it added drag and felt I was getting a "better" workout. What ended up happening was a reluctance to hit the pool more often. As above, whatever you're most comfortable in and won't detract from your workout goals.

I wouldn't say that the type of suit keeps me away from the pool. But I do know that the type of suit affects how long I go. The bigger and the bulkier suit, the quicker I bonk. Strange, but true.

Bathing suits also known as swimsuits. The best in sexy swimwear are bikinis. Now in the market is another popular one-piece bathing suit is the sling bikini.
