Shock Doctor Core Double Compression Short with Bioflex Cup

Comments about Shock Doctor Core Double Compression Short with Bioflex Cup:

I bought a set of these for use in BJJ training after a few times where someone tried to pass my guard in a drill and I took a knee to the groin.

One thing about sizing: I have somewhat large quads, and my waist is a 34-36 depending on the cut of the pants/jeans. I opted to get an XL (where normally I would have bought a large) and it was the right choice: Everything is snug and it fits well.

If you are like me, with somewhat strong legs and a waist that is on the edge of a L/XL, my advice is to try the XL. The XL still hugs tightly and keeps the cup in place, but gives you a bit more mobility for maneuvers such as putting on a triangle choke from the guard.

I am 6 1" and only 60 kilos so im a very slim build. I am normally a size 30 waist in fight shorts and according to the size guide on the packaging a medium would fit me best. Unfortunantly this wasnt the case and i had to send it back and order a small and the compression short still could be a bit tighter, the cup and cup pocket couldnt be better. i cant complain. it feels like it isnt even there. i use this for mauy thai bjj, wrestling and mma.

This cup slides, pinches, and hurts like hell. You have to readjust even if you just kick the bag. There's more risk in wearing this than having nothing.

I use this for BJJ / Grappling. For this use, cups with soft sides are ideal and the shock doctor cup is second to none. However, in my experience, the cup stays in place better if you wear it with a more traditional jockstrap / cup holder and a boxer brief over it. The groin protectors by "bike" (this is a producer, not a retailer) have the same kind of cup but stay in place better. Bottom line: I really like the cup but keeping it in place with the compression short is not working as well as I thought.
