Sparring Gear Bargains

I have always found sparring to be the most enjoyable part of martial arts training. You get the excitement which gets the adrenaline flowing and the challenge of facing up against other members of your club (or in competition). It is also an important part of training too, teaching you how to put into practice the abstract techniques that you have learned in a relatively realistic situation whilst getting the ideal workout for fitness and functional strength at the same time.
But if you are going to have a go at sparring it is very important that you should have the right protective gear, to make sure that you don't injure yourself or your opponent. Getting kitted out with the full range of sparring gear can bean expensive business, but there are also bargains out there to be had if you look in the right place, so here are my picks of some of the best bargains online.
