Hi! I am T. J Lucas. I am the head boxing coach here at Team Ruthless here in Manassas, Virginia. In today's boxing segments, we are going to go with the basic fundamentals of boxing, some conditioning workouts and a few safety tips. These are 180 inch Hand Wraps for those people with big hands, these are adult size hand wraps. These hand wraps I am using they are Top Contender hand wraps; they are Mexican style hand wraps, so they stretch, they give a little bit and they are easy on your hands. I am wrapping the hands, it's important that you keep your hands flexed the whole time. We are going to start off by going over the wrist a few times.
I want to go over the knuckles a few times. One of the most important things of boxing is taking care of your hands. So these can hurt your hands while going on the bag if you are not wrapped properly. Make sure you go over the thumb, protecting the thumb, keeping it from getting jammed back when you punch. Now go over the wrist. Now you want to go in between the fingers. You go either under or over the top, your choice.
Now you want to go in between the ring finger and the middle finger. Now between the ring finger and the pinky, back along the wrist one time, back around the knuckles. I finish off around the wrist. Now when wrapping hands, it is important not to wrap too tight, because you do not want to cut off any circulation. There you go.
Now you can get hand wraps in any sporting good store along with your head gear, groin protector gloves, mouthpiece, those things are important when scoring. And also you want to make sure, when you box you want to be at a gym, you have good coaches who are qualified and know what they are doing.
