View attachment 1371209 The class will have wrestling and jujitsu . The instructor recommends a cup. When a wrestled in high school they were not allowed. I’m not really comfortable wearing one, Think it’s necessary?
Not nessassary.....however I wear one every class

For a few reasons....acedents happen....a hard roll you can occasionally catch a knee....

Reason 2....I fight mma..(or at least I did....I kinda aged out of it....so I haven't had a ring fight in a while....I am probably done...but I train to get guys ready for fights sooo)
Anyways mms fights require cups so it's good to get used to it

Reason 3 ....I am straight and really don't like my dick running on a dude....or a dudes dick running on me....but I have felt dick and balls on me before.....so I am positive not all the guys wear cups

Reason 4....on arm bars and some other moves your not gonna rack yourself in the balls

Also my choice of cup....I wear steal must Thai cup....I saw a plastic one crack in a football game once....so I switched to steel

In wear it with the straps....(takes a bit to get used to) then throw on jock....then compression shorts....why all the gear.....when wrestling and rolling its easy to get cup out of place this keeps it all in place

All kinds of stuff.....for Brazilian jujitsue it's a heavy gi....for regular wrestling seems to run the gambit...

Some guys it's sweats....a few it's those tights/compression shorts.....but for The most part....it's shorts and a t shirt.....cans go wrong with that get up.....especially first few days

Me I usually go with a loose set of swim trunks....they have a draw string....and are made of super durable fabric that's unlikely to rip...(and they look like normal shorts)....then any old t shirt

By and large fighters are about the least fashionable folks ever....so you can pretty much get away with anything
