Tools and practice aids to help you in your efforts to master the skills are in abundance when looking for karate equipment that will help you succeed. You can even select a training bag that is shaped like the body of a sparring opponent from the wide variety of different training bags designed to withstand your punches and blows during your training.

Sparring Bob is the name of a free standing punching bag with rubber skin that is described as feeling like you are hitting a real person when you throw punches at him. It is said to be much more comfortable to use for long periods of time without the need for hand protection, but at the same time it is strong enough to hold up to serious abuse from fists, feet, elbows and knees, while facilitating targeting because of the human-like shape, compared to a regular training bag. There are definite benefits realized from this lifelike piece of karate equipment. Or you can choose a free standing punching bag that has scoring zones printed on the cover so that you can concentrate on your strike zones. You can practice your punches and kicks to learn how to place them in just the right spot.

Karate equipment should contain safety gear as a priority including headgear that can be chosen with or without a full face shield whichever is your preference. Extra protection can be gained by a chest guard that can be strapped on to stay in place and reinforce protection as well as shin guards and gloves. Younger participants especially should use ear guards and mouth guards for essential protection. An alternative to other materials used for body protection you can choose to use knee pads, cloth hand and forearm pads, shin pads or elbow pads as an option to provide body padding. Additional accessories including target pads and shields serve a dual purpose by not only helping to provide protection, but are also an important element in your efforts to enhance the speed and accuracy of your hands and feet.

Karate equipment can also contain items that are used in many popular types of fitness training such as kettle bells and jump ropes as well as strength training accessories such as resistance bands and weighted forearm and shin sleeves. Maximum flexibility can be gained for your body using specialized equipment to enhance your abilities. You can also check into the many DVDs and books to assistin your training experience.

Finish your list of karate equipment by adding a sport mat to offer a layer of comfortable cushion between you and the floor during your training sessions.

These sport mats can be set up or taken down easily when and where ever they are needed because of their special design.
