Anyone doing MMA training in the days of COVID. I'd like to get one day a week in. I also wear glasses 100% time now, and I hate contacts. Got any suggestions?

I don't train MMA but I do train BJJ. I have a dedicated training partner that I roll/drill with twice a week and do 1 private lesson with my coach a week. I keep the circle as small as possible. My academy isn't rolling but is drilling w/dummies (which I'm not doing).Originally Posted by kyle38

You may want to post this question in the sports training section.

Prescription sports goggles. I have a pair I use for hockey.

Once a week with a neighbor and we vary between stand up striking and rolling. Only two of us, so exposure is limited. Good luck.

A lot of MMA fighters wear glasses and I doubt that they wear contacts when they're sparring or actually competing. Maybe find one with a ******** page and ask how they go about it. If it's just an interest, a day each week is fine, but don't expect a limited amount of training to kick in in a real life situation.Originally Posted by kyle38

you don't need contacts or glasses. A bit uncomfortable at first but you will get used to it. Beings slightly off-focus doesn't hurt, you will still see punches coming.
