This is my first time ever training starting tomorrow and I'm kinda clueless. I know I'm gonna get a mouthpiece and a gi, but I'm not 100% on how to dress for the occasion or if there's anything I should bring. Any suggestions?
Also, is it recommended to wear a cup? Pardon my noobness.
First off scratch the GI off your list! lol No but for real you should for sure wear a cup man i've gotton my heuvos smashed a few times and it sucks, a cup is i good investment
Any recommendations on cups?
In the words of the great Amir Rhanavardi "If you like your teeth and your nuts, bring your mouthpiece and your cups"
If you plan on fighting in MMA, I suggest a thai cup.Quote:

Yeah... Scratch the Gi.... $16 - $20 at Target will get you a rashie.

bring yourself. and a good attitude. if you go to practice pissed off or distracted it will affect your learning.
Water bottle
Cup
Mouthguard
Trim your nails and you're good to go :)
I like to wear a cup because somehow my balls are a knee magnet lol I feel more relaxed knowing that my balls are protected but some people don't like wearing it. It's a personal preference.
pencil
notebook
write down questions and what you learned

I think if you always fight in a cup and mouthpiece might as well train with a cup and mouthpiece. People will shin ride on ur nutz and pass your guard
