is this good for mma sparring?

I have found it to me very effective but the seams inside which secure the cup I have found to chaff my legs. I use it for Krav Maga sparring

It works fine for me for use in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. We use thick mats for the flooring. Not sure what sport you play but if you get slammed hard or do hard shoots you might feel it. Also depends on your knees. It does provide protection but I'm not sure what kind of sport you're referring to. Sometimes I do feel a little shock still.

It is OK. It is a little harder to move around than it looks on the commercials. It is good for toning, not so great for building a lot of muscle mass. All in all it is good for the price, it will be hard to find something more versatile for less than $200.

First I would recommend not getting it... I can really tell no difference between this and a cheap double one. And no... I can mumble with it on but someone I'm sparring with usually says what so many times I take it out....

I've heard a lot of people say Turbo Fire because it has a lot of high impact throughout. Combat is intense in other ways, it has less impact (does have some though) and is a workout based on true MMA. I've only done Combat (love it) so I can't comment anymore on Turbo Fire.

I think these Gel-Hand Wraps are more for Boxing/Muay Thai/Kick Boxing...Not sure if they'll fit inside MMA gloves. I've tried these inside Everlast Protec 12 Oz (Large) and Hayabusa Tokushu 16 Oz...they suit me fine so far for both of the boxing gloves i mentioned. Hope that helps.

Worth a try. Our kids use it for martial arts training which includes sparring. They have braces top and bottom.

it is definitely good and responsive as far as performance goes. Where it really shines is the fact that due to the thickness I don't need a pad for my wrist so I am able to rest my arm level with the surface of the mouse pad, which is an ergonomic thing that varies for different people. You may very well prefer to use a rest for your wrist which means you can probably go with one of the thinner ones which I believe are cheaper.as far as size, it's plenty big enough for even the lowest sensitivity players in any game.

I believe these would be. Very comfortable and flexible. I use my pair for martial arts which includes intense sparring.

Hard to say. Mma gloves are rather low profile. You might not see much difference between these under wraps and the mma gloves themselves. Go to your local sporting goods store and try them on to be sure.

I haven't done those other programs personally, but know people who have. From what I've seen and heard, it's similar to those programs but based upon a MMA conditioning workout. It's St. Pierre's coach's workout for fighters. You'll definently get a good workout in.

The bag is good for punching, not too heavy and not too light. For kicking it's okay, not too long so you're going to have to be able to kick high enough or at least mid body. Overall the bag is a good training tool and feels good.

Hi, I will recommend you to buy the medium size, I bought an X-LARGE size and it was the right size for me. I will no recommend you to purchase the small size because it will be too tight for you. If you want to buy the small size and it does not fit you well, you can send it back, but remember there will be a fee for that. : ) Now if you want to use it as a brace, I think it will work for your kickboxing sessions.

I used these for a Beginner class which was minimal hitting - no bag work and they were just fine. you may want something with more padding if you're going to spar/bag work.

There's no padding just glove and rubber I don't think they would be good for sparring.

I'd say yes, within reason. It is stiff but has a cushioned layer - I think you'd need to intend to hurt your opponent. It is great for sword play - the best we've ever had for sword play.

Depends on the sport. Other martial arts may require more or less padding. I train Brazilan Jiu-jitsu and find that these stay on and protect adequately. Since BJJ has much ground techniques, these pads are very useful. Just be sure that you size them correctly according to the website.
