lol. "they are a bit more distended than the average patient" loved that episode.
I tried a few cups and I even though my friend was messing with me by giving me a kids cup. I've asked for advice from three different coaches now as to what I should do. Im not a big enough dude to wear the XL ones because of how they press on my thighs. Im good with not using one for rolling but Im very curious to know if the steel muay thia cups have more volume inside than the other two styles Ive tried?
I use a Jaco guardian. Highly recommended
Cup and mouthguard + 1.
I like wearing a cup, for the protection and it keeps everything in place and out of the way (maybe that's just me). I've had to pass up on armbars before when my junk got between the arm and pelvis. Also I have been kneed accidentally before by overly zealous new guys, glad I was wearing one. One time I had my teeth ground together by getting caught in a guillotine while breathing out of my mouth, chipped my teeth a little, I've always worn one since then. I'm a bit surprised their aren't more stories like this, maybe I'm just really awkward or unlucky :( lol
I have spit out pieces of molars from guillies as well.
I wear my cup every day, all day. My 9-5 is teaching mma, kick boxing and jiujitsu PE classes at a university. I also had a second job at a nightclub bouncing for about 2 years.. Wore it every single night I bounced.... I honestly own like 3 pair of underwear and a dozen cups and cup holders/compression shorts..
