The Importance of the Right Kind of Mixed Martial Arts Supplies

MMA which stands for Mixed Martial arts has become the latest rage in all parts of the world. An increasing number of people are in the process of joining MMA training gyms in order to train at this martial art form in the most authentic manner. The most surprising part is that it is not just MMA enthusiasts but also normal people who are indulging in these training sessions as they prove to be a perfect weight loss program.

In order to be able to train like MMA professionals, owning the right kind of supplies is one of the main requisites. You might not want to join the league and take this form as seriously as the professional fighters do, but buying supplies is essential in order to protect you from any serious injury. Hence, while you make your decision to become a part of this world, it is a smart thing to get all the important accessories well in advance.

The MMA gloves are the most basic requirement of MMA kit. It is these gloves that assist the fighter in fighting or sparring. These gloves are different from the normal boxing gloves in a way that these have a support at the wrist to protect the wrist as well as make the punches harder hitting. Also, these MMA gloves have separate fingers and are comparatively thinner. A good pair of gloves is the only way to keep your wrists protected in addition to hitting the opponent as hard as possible.

Another constituent of the MMA training kit is the MMA T-shirt. You are free to wear any normal T-shirt while training but getting a specialized T-shirt will not only help in keeping your muscles warm but also convey to people that you are training for MMA and make you look more fashionable.
MMA shorts come close in the list of the other requisites of the martial art. the peculiarity of these specific shorts keep the fighters' thigh muscles warm and the comfortable fabric makes kicking more easy and convenient, provided they are well fitted. While buying your pair of MMA shorts, pay special attention to the grip and the stitch of the material. A good pair of shorts has a string stitch and a stretchy grip.

A shin guard is essential because it acts as a protective shield for the shin of the fighter and also assists him in kicking his opponent with maximum impact. The head is a very vital body organ. MMA fighters do not wear head guards during matches but a headgear is obligatory for a trainee so as to make sure that he does not cause serious damage to his head while learning MMA.

Other key necessities of a MMA training kit are the grappling and rash guard tops which are supposed to be worn under the traditional Gi. The significance of these supplies is that they guard the skin from infections by absorbing sweat.

Laying their hands on all these necessary supplies is essential for every MMA enthusiast in order to train in a more professional manner as well as ensure that his body does not suffer any serious bruises and damages.

Why People Hate MMA Shirts

MMA shirts are the most popular piece of MMA apparel, there is no shortage of great brands and designs to choose from. In fact, many mma stores carry well over 30 brands at the time of this writing! MMA t-shirts are the most well known type of MMA clothes and the most hated as well.

MMA shirts have been hated by a lot of mma fans and mma practitioners for the wrong reasons. These people think that only mma fighters should wear mma shirts. They think that a guy wearing an mma t-shirt at the mall is a poser. This is ridicules! If the people wearing an NBA shirt are all basketball players and the guys wearing Billabong board shorts at the beach are all surfers then you have every reason to feel mad about the mma shirts situation. But the thing is that mma is a sport and as a sport it has devoted fans that like to wear mma t-shirts! It's not like they are hanging out with a mouthpiece at a bar or have their hand wraps on at the mall. They just want to show their passion! I don't personally own a "branded" (Affliction, Tapout, Silver Star) mma shirt but I can understand the guys that buy them by the dozens.

After all it's a trend and it started with Affliction. Lot's of hand-drawing, gothic skulls, swords and chains. Like any other trend, this will soon fade. I like to wear mma clothes with slogans, alternative mma tees and funny mma shirts. I love the sport and I show my passion with a shirt. Everyone that loves mma should have at least 2 mma shirts. One of their favorite fighter and one with their favorite mma quote.

Somebody asked me the other day why do people with Affliction shirts give him the 'stink-eye'. Well there are some people who enter 'tough-mode' as soon as they put on their mma tee shirt. That's just the way it is. If you want to blame someone, blame the Affliction marketing team. Some fans associate toughness with a shirt and these people probably haven't step foot in a gym, ever! So, don't hate the mma shirts or the mma fans. Both play a vital role to the sport you love.

I agree with this article in so many ways. First off, let people wear whatever they want to. If some guy wears an mma shirt, and he doesn't look like an mma fighter, then maybe he's wearing if for his son who is, or maybe his friend is a big fan, either way they don't really need to justify wearing an mma shirt.
A few year ago, before I became a fighter, I would walk around wearing my pride fc shirt, man it was the best shirt I had, people would seriously come and ask me if I was a fighter and sponsored by pride!?!? Geez, people?! I would then do a quick scope and ask them if they were sponsored by tommy hilfiger because of the shirt they were wearing, and they would quickly say no, and get defensive about it.
I personally like seeing people wearing an mma shirt, because at the very least, if you walk into a crowded room of people, none of which you know, and you see someone wearing an mma shirt, you know that there is a good chance that you have something in common to talk about.

In the end, however, if it's an mma shirt or a ballet shirt or a dog loving shirt, I think its best to just let people wear whatever they want to. After all it's just a shirt.

I am wearing an mma shirt right now, K. Sakuraba shirt - an oldie but goodie.

Why You Need to Own an MMA Shirt

Why You Need to Own an MMA Shirt

Not long ago, there weren't many T-Shirt options available (save Tapout) for casual MMA fans and enthusiasts. Chances were if you wanted to own a shirt with your favorite fighter on it, you were simply out of luck if it wasn't one of a small handful of top tier UFC fighters.

Luckily for the of MMA fans out there times have changed. If you see a fighter on television, there's a good possibility that they have a signature shirt with a reputable MMA brand name attached to it.

Why you need to own an MMA Shirt:
Having a tee with your favorite fighter on the front is incontestably cool. And if you truly support a fighter; you'll wear it during his or her fights to cheer them on. But the best part is that many times you are also helping to support their training since many brand names offer fighters a cut of their merchandising sales.

What if I don't want a Fighter Shirt?
Don't worry because there are many, many MMA shirts out there that are not fighter specific. In fact, some of the larger Mixed Martial Art retailers' stock well over 20 brands of MMA related t-shirts - many of which are not related to a particular fighter.

How you can purchase an MMA Shirt:
Purchasing an MMA shirt is very simple. You can either go to a mall with an MMA Shop store front or make your purchase online. I favor and highly recommend shopping online for the reason that you can often find a much wider variety at a much cheaper price. If you shop at a brick and mortar retailer you're often restricted to a small selection of shirts from only a handful of brands.
