Well if you’re a heavy hitting pro or you simply enjoy venting your frustrations on the heavy bag, your hands are taking the impact. Hand wraps are an essential but largely neglected piece of equipment for anyone punching. Why You Need Hand-Wraps: Hand and wrist wraps are used to compress the bones and tissues in the hand. Boxers claim they feel less pain when striking, therefore they can strike with an increased force. Hand wraps increase injury prevention by maintaining the alignment of the joints, compressing and lending strength to the soft tissue of the hand during the impact of a punch. For such a small item they do wonders. Every serious boxer has a pair. When applied correctly they supports the wrist joint ensuring it’s correctly aligned when the impact of a punch is absorbed by the wrong part of the hand. Hand wraps also significantly strengthens the metacarpus, reducing the likelihood of a fracture of one of the metacarpal bones. Such a fracture is commonly referred to as “boxer’s fracture”. How to Use Hand Wraps: Simply place the loop over your thumb and wrap the hand reasonably tightly in your approved style. Use your wrist as the base to work from. With our 4.5m length, you will have more than enough length to wrap your whole hand.
