Hardly any other sport convinces with so much variety in training as martial arts. Find out from us what you need for your boxing training.
Bandages are a must-have, whether you're a beginner or a pro. Nothing works in boxing without the approximately 5 cm narrow strips of fabric in different lengths. The elastic or inelastic boxing bandages from TOP TEN can be easily wrapped thanks to the thumb loop and closed with a possible hook and loop fastener. It is wrapped from the wrist over all fingers of the hand so that the bandage stabilizes the knuckles. If you put on your boxing gloves right now, you're missing out on a great start to your training. With bandaged hands, you can work out after warming up on the punching ball or speedball. The support of the bandages is entirely sufficient here.
With your bandaged hands, you slip into your sandbag gloves and can really give it some power. Check beforehand whether your bandages are still dry; otherwise, the change is worthwhile. Only dry bandages protect your sandbag gloves from unnecessary moisture exposure through sweat and thus help your equipment have a long service life. Sandbag gloves are often also identified as equipment gloves, and their use is only designed for that. They differ in shape and padding from boxing gloves for partner training and can cause serious injuries if used in the wrong area. With sandbag gloves, the thumb is usually not fixed by a thumb strap and is therefore freely movable. Since a sandbag cannot be knocked out, it does not need extra-strong padding.
You can now get straight to the point after you have warmed up on the sandbag and rehearsed your technique sequences. But before a practice fight demands your total concentration, you get valuable support in focus mitts training. Scheduled as a partner exercise, good consultation is required. So the training session is a complete success on both sides, in front of and behind the pads. Boxing gloves for pad training need the same safety aspects as for sparring. Impact-resistant padding adapted to your body weight and power of impact, a fixed thumb against accidental sticking, and a tight locking system. Boxing gloves with Velcro fasteners have become popular in pad training for a quick partner change.
Create real conditions and get a taste of the competitive atmosphere. In sparring, you stand face to face with an opponent. However, clear agreements create security and allow priorities to be defined right from the start. Accompanied by a coach, sparring is the ideal preparation for a competition. Sparring boxing gloves are built very close to the well-known competition gloves to stay injury-free. However, you can use heavier-ounce models to increase endurance and strength. Those who bring their punches round after round with 16-ounce boxing gloves will benefit from the lightness later in the competition with the standardized 10-ounce boxing gloves. A strong hook and loop fastener is also preferred here. The exercise sequences can be interrupted repeatedly to discuss instructions from the coaching staff in detail. To preserve your sparring and training boxing gloves, you need to follow a few simple care instructions after use. Open your boxing gloves wide and let them air out sufficiently in a warm and dry place. Check your protective equipment for possible defects such as burst seams or absorptive padding and rectify them immediately. After removing any dirt on the cover with a soft, damp cloth, hang your boxing gloves in an airy mesh bag until it goes back into the ring.
