There is a lot of debate surrounding the effectiveness of groin protectors, with some people claiming that they are essential for any contact sport and others asserting that they do not do enough to protect the wearer. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Groin protectors can certainly help to reduce the severity of impacts to the groin area, but they are not foolproof and cannot completely prevent injuries from occurring. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide whether or not they feel comfortable wearing one.
Yes, you can put KT tape on your groin. There are a few ways to do this. One way is to put a strip of KT tape horizontally across the top of your hip bones, with the ends of the strip extending past your hip bones. Another way is to put a strip of KT tape vertically along the center of your groin, with the ends of the strip extending past your hip bones.
Most male boxers wear groin guards. The groin guard helps to protect the boxer's genitals from getting hit by an opponent.
MMA fighters do wear groin cups as part of their protective gear. The groin cup is designed to protect the fighter's genital area from strikes.

Let me first tell you how great this jock/cup is before I go on to describe how I came to understand I needed one. Recently, my fiance and I both began learning Krav Maga, and as many of you are aware, Krav teaches you to groin strike just about anyone. My fiancée is meant to act out a groin strike, so we are practicing how to defend against a side choke. She dropped me after inadvertent contact (I swear, I didn't deserve it either; she wasn't trying to make it look like an accident when it wasn't). When I felt like myself again (and didn't feel like I was going to burst into chunks), I went right home and did some research on the best cup available and came across this.I'll be honest and say that the cost a little bit turned me off, but how much is testicular protection worth? Here, you definitely don't want to cut corners.Now that I have a finacee, she could essentially try to use a sledgehammer to pound me in the family jewels and this cup/compressions short combo would take it like a champ. Hell, I probably wouldn't even feel it if she used a ball peen hammer to tap me in the groin while I was wearing this (although the sound of the hammer hitting the steel cup definitely won't put me to sleep).Buy this and you'll thank me later if you love your family's gems and want to safeguard them with the best cup known to mankind.

I never intended to use this for MMA, but even after surgery, it's protection is essential for your most delicate parts.This has replaced the hospital-provided jock strap that I was ordered to wear for 3 days after having surgery 4 days ago to remove an orange-sized hydro cell from my left testicle. I felt discomfort when the medical jock strap dug into my thighs and legs. Comparatively speaking, wearing silk boxers is how this groin protector feels.Since then, this has been the only support and protection I have needed—no briefs, no sweat-wicking boxers, nothing. All you need are a billion layers, dudes T T. At 5'8" 172.72 cms, I weigh over 230 lb as a very large man. The cup itself is large enough to tolerate the swelling that has occurred and will continue to occur over the next few months, and the wide straps are pleasant.Wearing this garment has made me feel less concerned about my 50-pound dog's paws touching my lower body and legs when he approaches to give me kisses. By chance, my tuxedo cat is also a lap cat. He is also available for pets:). I'm not sure if this would hold up against a direct groin kick from Joe Rogan in judo, but it was effective in my case.Finally, excellent value, prompt delivery, and perhaps one of the biggest cup sizes I could find anywhere (it fit me pre-surgery).

My child adores this cup! Because he knew I'd purchase him this one to replace it, he "lost" his original cup. Boys on his Allstar squad from the previous season suggested this one. He may now wear his cup without any issues. He claims he doesn't even notice it, which is far better than last year when I was unable to pay him to wear the unpleasant old-style cup. Who could blame him, though? When I played, wearing a cup was the worst! He even offered to play catcher this year! There is no longer an excuse for your youngster to suffer or play risky baseball if he enjoys it.

Although it has two additional straps to keep the cup in place, the waist strap on my back can and often does go down a little. There is an elastic looped tie string that can be tightened, but I'm not sure how to use it. and haven't actually tried to use it. Regarding earlier remarks, the workmanship might need to be improved. It was made with some good materials, I'll admit that. Despite the larger cup size, you might be able to wear another brand of supporters. Removing the cup while wearing it seems to be a little challenging, and after repeated washing and wearing, it may eventually tear. So, that might be one cause of the stitching issue.

utilized for jujitsu. I've used this on top of and underneath compression shorts. I had previously utilized Shock doctor goods, and no matter what I did, the cup continued to shake excessively. This resulted in a slight injury, which encouraged me to look for another solution.The cup's form and capacity are the first obvious differences. I believe that the baseball cup's dimensions more closely resemble male anatomy than the Shock Doctor devices do.The second distinction is that, although though this cup is made of steel with a carbon fiber cover, the edge cushioning is significantly better than anything I've previously used! It is made of soft vinyl that is simple to clean (more on that shortly.)The adjustable waistband is the third distinction. You can only truly move the band an inch up or down, but the velcro holds firm and, in my experience, does so for hours at a time.The factor that kept this from receiving a fifth star? Only wash by hand. I like to use a heated "sanitize" cycle to wash all of my gear, and while the cup would withstand it, I'm sure this metal monster would harm the machine! It would be wonderful if there was a way to separate the cup from the straps and clean them individually. Overall, I'd say that, even at double the cost, this would be a fantastic option for anyone doing Jiu-jitsu or Muay Thai.

This is what I have on for hockey. Women's jock or jill sock holders come with ridiculous feminine pelvic protection. I got the impression that firms like Bauer were making fun of their jills after I had a look at my husband's cup, which was constructed of heavy plastic and had a thick silicon band around the outside. The lightweight plastic Bauer pelvic protection, often known as a jill, has foam bonded to the rear. The Bauer one would be damaged after a few washes because I often forget mine in my pants and wash it. But this Lo-Bloo is robust and able to withstand the assault. I removed the straps and simply tucked it into my jock/jill pocket holder. Good for absorbing a puck, stick, or groin strike. I appreciate how it also curves lower for more protection. When I first put it on, it can occasionally feel a little strange, but once I remove the ice, I never notice it.

I've been using the Thai Cup 2.0 for Taekwondo, a little Hapkido, and BJJ for the past six months.Use: I cover my Adidas sports boxer briefs with the cup throughout every practice. The elastic leg straps sometimes bunch up the briefs a little bit, which is a little irritation. Additionally, when performing crunches or any other bent-over stretch, the cup may press into the lower abdomen, restricting motion in that direction. The cup did, however, remain in place, and as I got used to the pressure it created between my upper thighs during crossing steps, it had no effect on my kicking actions at all. During kicking drills, I hardly notice it.The review's most crucial sentence is: It works! During practice and sparring, I've received around six kicks to the groin. The cup effectively distributes the force to the area around the groin and the very bottom of the abdomen. I am aware that I have been struck, and it typically takes me a moment to recover, but there is no radiating agony that lasts for a long time. I believe it to be quite successful since receiving a hit is just slightly worse than receiving a hard kick to the outer thigh, and far less painful and crippling than receiving a clean shot to the solar plexus or an exposed area of the groin.Other remarks: The manufacturer's video made the initial adjustment simple. The fit needed a little fine-tuning, and after six months of use, I've had to re-tighten the waist strap twice. So far, the leg loops have been established then forgotten. It may be unsettling to experience interference with crunch-style movement. It can severely dig into the lower abdomen wall and stress on my bladder because I am 5'7" and 150 lbs. On that note, before putting it on, make sure you are empty. When outfitted, making a pit stop can be a problem. Finally, it might cause some discomfort for your opponent during a rear mount, especially if you dig in your hooks and stretch your knees to push your pelvis forward. Be careful when pulling between the knees to execute arm bars; you will have a lot of leverage if you don't direct your partner's arm "south" below the cup.Overview: The most comfortable guard I've used and very effective protection. Yes, you are aware that you are wearing one, but since you will be wearing it rather than storing it in your equipment bag, it is the most effective form of protection.

I only recently resumed my karate training after a more than 20-year hiatus, and I want to safeguard my possessions. I bought this cup at the age of 54 to replace the one I had used 25 years earlier (which was a youth size). This one is a good fit. My testicles are enlarged from a hernia surgery a few years ago, but otherwise, I would say I'm of "normal" size (5' 10", 190 lbs). The cup doesn't have any more space inside, but the outside edge seems to comfortably touch my crotch. Surprisingly, I still have the same jock strap from 25 years ago, and it works well to secure the cup. I occasionally wear tight-fitting sports shorts over the cup and strap and underneath my gi while I'm wearing a gi with loose-fitting leggings. Mobility is unaffected, and I frequently forget I'm wearing it. I wash it with warm water and hand soap.
Professional Muay Thai fighters do wear cups. While the sport is a full contact combat sport, there are still rules and regulations in place to protect the fighters. Wearing a cup is just one way to help protect the fighters from serious injuries.
There is no doubt that soldiers are at risk of serious injury when serving in the military. One of the most vulnerable areas of the body is the groin, which is why many soldiers wear groin protection. This is usually in the form of a cup or other padding that covers the area and helps to protect against impact. While this does not guarantee that a soldier will not be injured in this area, it can help to reduce the severity of an injury if one does occur.
Yes, UFC fighters do wear groin protection. This is to prevent serious injuries to the genitals, which could otherwise occur during a fight. The groin protector is typically made of a hard material, such as plastic, and is designed to cover the entire groin area.
Muay thai is a sport that uses the entire body to strike, and as such, groin protection is essential. There are a variety of groin guards available on the market, from simple jockstraps to more complex cup systems. While some fighters may choose not to wear a groin guard, doing so puts them at risk of serious injury. A good groin guard should be comfortable, allow for full range of motion, and provide adequate protection.
MMA fighters typically wear a cup to protect their balls, just like most other contact sports. The cup is usually made of hard plastic and is designed to fit snugly against the body. Many MMA fighters also wear compression shorts, which help to hold the cup in place and provide additional support.
MMA is a sport that allows a wide variety of techniques, both striking and grappling. While there are many different techniques that are allowed, there are also some that are banned. Kicking the groin is one of those banned techniques. There are a few reasons why kicking the groin is banned in MMA. First, it is an extremely effective technique that can quickly end a fight. Second, it is very painful and can cause serious damage. Third, it can be difficult to control the power and accuracy of a kick to the groin, which can lead to serious injuries.
