Maybe I will develop speed that way,I might be on a new training fad.
Pretty much all the roadies on the military bases around here go with lycra, even if they're coming to work (if the route is long enough to make a difference, anyway).
But you could be onto something with the baggy clothes, like swimmers who wear drag suits for resistance training.
