Boxing Gym Equipment : Using Hand Wraps in Boxing and Personal Training

@leop00ns Absolutely I would, the last thing he needs is an injury at the age of 8. I am surprised his coach lets him train without wraps? I have been in many boxing and fight gyms around the world and EVERY fighter worth his salt, protects his hands. You will never see a pro or armature fighter train or fight without hand wraps or protection.

Would you wrap a chids hand? He is 8 and goes to a boxing club doing pads and bags. None seems to wear them in the UK whereas all kids have them on in the USA videos….what gives?

thank you this helped me for my kickboxing sessions

@hawkman350 You dont have to be an expert mate, make a fist and using the fingers of your other hand grab a knuckle and see if there is any give in it, there is no movement, people who dont know will make up reasons for doing so, that said there are guys at my gym who wrap through the knuckles it is just somthing they prefer to do but as far as I know it has no protection benifits, just make sure the back of your hand and wrist are well wrapped.

Nice job. I have been told wrapping between the knuckles can stop the knuckles moving though, I’m no expert but it’s just what I’ve heard….

Speed ball and ceiling to floor ball you can use only wraps but always use a glove for the rest 14 to 16 oz.

can you train on a heavy bag with only the wraps on or do you need to have some boxing gloves as well?

cool…
