http://www.myboxingcoach.com - Before we start, take notice of this golden rule; never, ever hit a punch bag without appropriate hand protection. Don't even be tempted to have a little pop as you walk past the heavy bag. The damage that you can do to the hands if you don't have them well wrapped and protected with gloves is immense. I'm not talking about nasty little cuts and abrasions here (which cause frustration in their own annoying way), I'm talking about disintegrated knuckles and shattered metacarpals, damage so grave that the hand is permanently disfigured and will never function to full potential again. There are a range of options available when it comes to hand protection, none of which are going to break the bank, so there's no excuse for avoiding pain and problems. In this short five minute video, I explain exactly how I've been protecting my hands for more years than I can remember by using boxing hand wraps. Hand wraps are a more modern progression of the old fashioned crepe bandage. Hand wraps consist of very tightly woven fabric and are available in a range of colours. Hand wraps are specialised pieces of kit designed for combat sports such as boxing, Muay Thai and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). They include a loop or 'partial glove' at one end (to provide the anchor point to wrap the hands) and a Velcro fastener at the other end, allowing a speedy application. Wraps tend to provide a higher level of protection than crepe bandages, and would not ordinarily require the addition of sponge layers to improve protection.
