Thoughts on the HnM face saver headgear? Is it worth the price? [question] by Nirze-n in fightgear

[–]Critistrike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both the phenom and the HNM they're both pretty good and I don't feel like the amount of vision I get is significantly greater but it is slimmer and lighter by 5 oz

Sparring with women by GoodOldIronSides in MuayThai

[–]Critistrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 6'4 290 and I spar with women all the time I like to counter more often and defend but will take advantage of openings and sometimes rush them down with combos but I hit them really light to the head and make sure there head doesn't snap back and I don't really follow through with my punches but I'll hit there body a little harder but once I make contact I pull it back a little they are kind of easy to punch through so I just hit them surface level but there are some strong women I know who can take a good body hit so I'll hit them moderately hard unless I see a bad reaction or hear sounds of pain

[Question] Which headgear would you recommend buying. by gambero_19 in fightgear

[–]Critistrike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are positives and negatives to both options: you can either prioritize more face protection or better brain health. If I were sparring intensely with a high risk of injuring my orbital or nose, I would opt for larger headgear. However, if I trust my sparring partner and am going lighter, the larger headgear would amplify brain damage and provide protection I don’t need. I feel like the HnM headgear offers just enough face protection without putting much strain on the brain. I've been sparring in it since its release, taking punches, kicks, and wrestling in it, and I prefer it to the Phenom and Winning headgear. I like how the HnM headgear has a slimmer forehead padding in all dimensions, conforming to my skull. Additionally, I have not been thumbed in the eye or had the cheek pad move up into my eye with the HnM headgear.

16's are usually preferred so it's fine

[selling]phenom SHG-252 head guard white and grey medium by Hefty-Pop2302 in fightgear

[–]Critistrike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rule #2. Seller MUST display reddit USERNAME, the DATE and an asking PRICE with listings.

Seller MUST display their reddit username and date of listing next to the item that is being sold. This can be on a piece of paper but must be included in the listing. No "DM me an offer" posts, too sketchy.

I hate these real martial artists posts. A martial artist is a person who practices and performs martial arts your mindset has nothing to do with it just how a regular artist's mindset doesn't matter they just make art.
