Jockstrap recommendations

[mikesmith4516]

Hi all, I've recently begun MMA classes and the instructor recommended that we wear jockstraps with cups for protection. Does anyone have suggestions based on experience?

This is definitely a topic I don't want to touch. But if he's serious, I've got a couple of used ones I'll let go of cheap.

Here’s what I wear. I’ve been happy with it so far:

Compression shorts rather than a jock strap.

Due to my unique and magnificent anatomy, I have to use an upturned wheelbarrow for my cup and a custom strap to keep it in place.

Welcome to Martial Talk, Mike.

You could ask the guys at your school, or ask a salesman in a sporting goods store.

Or just wing and get one. If you don’t like that one, get a different one.

But definitely get one.

On the off chance this is real, I used Shock Doctor's compression shorts and cup combo.

Past tense because I don't use one in BJJ.

For mma doesn’t really matter just something cheap will do as frankly you really shouldn’t be getting hit there often (yes well aware accidents happen which is why you need one )

Now if you were doing something like Krav Maga where the groin is a major target then yeah you’d need something good
