is this good for mma sparring?

I have found it to me very effective but the seams inside which secure the cup I have found to chaff my legs. I use it for Krav Maga sparring

This is a great training bag. Yes, it can handle very powerful kicks as well as punches. We have several of these Wavemasters in our tae kwon do academy. I do not recommend wearing shoes when striking the bag as this may decrease the life of the product.

I have not tried it for running. I use it for kick boxing. Its good for that. My concern is that it might make the skin on your leg raw for running

No, I would not recommend this lens for sporting events. It doesn't zoom, which will limit your ability to compose when you have limited ability to move yourself closer to subject. Plus the apertures aren't super great for low light of a gym. (Although tripod will help with that). In same price range I think you would be better served by the 18-200 f/3.5-5.6 with a tripod. (Or if you can spend a bit more go with the 80-200mm f/2.8)

Not really. There is no difference INSIDE the bag based on punching or kicking. However, the size of the bag will dictate if "punches only" is a better idea. If its smaller and lighter, then kicks aren't going to be great on it. Also, to practice low kicks, you need a long bag, like a Muay Thai or "banana" bag.

I would say no... It's not full tanged but if your looking to do some type of martial arts using weapons I would suggest cold Steel Kahana practice

I do not know anything about Jiu Jitsu or wrestling so cannot answer if the mats are suitable for those activities. I have the mat over cement on my basement floor and it works very well for aerobics, yoga as well as stretching and strength exercises

I've heard a lot of people say Turbo Fire because it has a lot of high impact throughout. Combat is intense in other ways, it has less impact (does have some though) and is a workout based on true MMA. I've only done Combat (love it) so I can't comment anymore on Turbo Fire.

Yes. It has an option for Portugese audio. Being Brazil dominates most classes in mma it would be very disappointing if it didn't.

Depends on the sport. Other martial arts may require more or less padding. I train Brazilan Jiu-jitsu and find that these stay on and protect adequately. Since BJJ has much ground techniques, these pads are very useful. Just be sure that you size them correctly according to the website.

Yes. I specifically bought it for that reason. Yes it gives you good support to do so, its not an exact fit but I've also used it to punch out trigger guards as well. You'll need a good set of punches to do the taper pins, use a beefy one to get it started then it should be a piece of cake. They only go one way out, there's quite a few tutorials online showing how to.

Hi, I will recommend you to buy the medium size, I bought an X-LARGE size and it was the right size for me. I will no recommend you to purchase the small size because it will be too tight for you. If you want to buy the small size and it does not fit you well, you can send it back, but remember there will be a fee for that. : ) Now if you want to use it as a brace, I think it will work for your kickboxing sessions.

It depends on where the weight bags are packed. Mine came pretty poorly packed and I chose to repacked it keep the weight in the middle and center from top to bottom so mine is fine for kicking. Some people chose to put half of the weight at the bottom, but its preference.Btw, 100lbs in this size bag is very dense to kick. I would suggest a full length MMA bag for better versatility and more appropriate weight distribution over this one.

It should be good , you can tie down the bottom when kicking if it swings too much. The bag is a little heavy and might take a week or so to get your hands use to striking.

I believe it is. It has no sharp edges or points. It's made of a hard, composite material that is held on to the finger, inverted, by a leather string. (Like a ring worn palm down). It's not an overtly lethal weapon and, in my opinion as a martial arts instructor, requires some practice and training to be an effective self defense tool. With some training, it can be very effective! It's well made and does the job once you understand how to utilize it and where to strike. It is a close combat instrument.

For training yes, but not for sparring or fighting. They don't have alot of padding to block head kicks and the padding is very soft. But they are GREAT gloves

Worth a try. Our kids use it for martial arts training which includes sparring. They have braces top and bottom.
