It's not just girlies who wear rash guards though I could do with a plain one to replace my dark camo short sleeve, I'm sure it gives out signals that I'm more badass than I really am
I found my old rashguard last week and tried it on. My ever expanding paunch did not set it off very well.
I always wear a rashguard nowadays, tshirts get ruined quickly, and rashguards are better at reducing abrasions. The downside of this is that keiko without one on feels kinda wierd now,
Recommend getting a long sleeved one rather than short, as I get rashes on my forearms sometimes. I have a cheap old underarmor from marshalls that does the job.
have fun in judo I still remember the 2 I took. They said I did the foot sweep well I guess because we have those in shotokan, it carried over into the other martial art that also had a foot sweep.
I've found myself to be a big fan of the foot sweeps in general. I'd like to get really good at those as they seem very "work-appropriate" if you will.
Foot sweeps say in sparring would be more of a problem for me in general when its done to me because of my balance problem. But I work at it and I will adapt. Last time I sparred, a year ago before I got the arthritis, I got swept by my brown belt partner and I had a nice taste of floor. But it was so fun. I love the martial arts.
