ShotokanKid Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 Just a question I would like to know the answer to. "What we do in life, echoes in eternity.""We must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men."
tufrthanu Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 This is a little off topic but still in the same category. I know in judo matches women didn't used to be able to do certain moves because of the worries of damage to their breasts. Did they change that because of some sort of modern chest protector? And also would a woman be better off using a regular soft hogu or one that is hard like real armor? Long Live the Fighters!
rb Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 nopeand women can do anything men can do and they don't need armour.
ravenzoom Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 I don't wear any cups, and neither does the other students.
pittbullJudoka Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 I wear a cup when grappling and stand up sparring.One you can set an armbar better with a cup on and most importantly I don't like the the thought of the pain in my groin if hit or pitched.Any one with common sense would.
AngryMatt Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 When are you going to have a cup in a street fight? So the answer would be for my training, no. As far as judo goes... well I don't see why you need it since judo focuses on throws and not strikes.. "In the void is virtue, and no evil. Wisdom has existence, principle has existence, the Way has existence, spirit is nothingness."-The Book of the Void (A Book of Five Rings)"Men don't start fights, but they do finish them."
mai tai Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 you can set an arm bar without a cup. just pinch the knees together.i always train with a cup for grappleing. i just dont like my junk rubbing up against another dude
