For those of you who box what do you prefer? a trainer at the gym I go to says double is no good for boxing and you should use single. Any thoughts??? :?
the double kinda sticks your lower jaw out a bit. I feel the single lets you tuck in your chin better but then again since you put both sets top and bottom right into a double piece your jaw feels secure. But the thing is you still don't have your teeth and jaw clenched down as close together as when you have a single. Idk i guess its preference but its kinda hard to favor either or.
Doubles can be huge and the ones I have worn always seem to fit one side of my jaw differently than the other.
are there different size singles cus I've used a few singles but they seemed a little big or just not snug enough and totally uncomfortable.
everlast..yeah I threw the thing in water as long as I could.. it just seems like the piece isn't the right size for me. I got a double and it fits perfectly but I'd rather have a single that fit comfortable because the double does feel big.
What I would do if I were you- just buy several different brands, cough up the money and see what works for you. Then, go with exclusively that brand. Its a good investment if you plan on boxing.
I actually have a double that works wonders. You can get them nowadays with breathing slots in the middle. Besides, if you start breathing through your mouth and not through your nose....you have alot more to worry about than your mouthpiece.
