Boxing, a super effective sport and exercise regime to keep you fit! Whether you want to get into competitive boxing or just do it to keep fit; you’re gonna need some boxing wraps. Perfect to match with a set of boxing gloves, both of these will keep your hands safe and protected.
Wraps can be a bit difficult to put on especially on your first use of them. The idea is to wrap around the wrist and knuckles to keep them straight and stable while boxing. But also be aware not to wrap to tightly as it can be painful while training. Here is a fantastic video to watch how to wrap your hands the best:
How to wash and clean your boxing wraps
Remember to wash your boxing wraps regularly as they get very sweaty and stinky inside your gloves. Vinegar is fantastic to soak the wraps in if you don’t want to put them in with the rest of your washing. After soaking in vinegar you can just rinse them out with water and let them air dry. Otherwise you can put them in the washing machine (vinegar soaked or not) and wash them as per normal clothes. Due to their length and size they may get caught up with the rest of your washing and stretched so wary about that.
You can get some cheap and simple wraps right here, plus they come in all different colors for personal preference! Another option is to get some gel padded boxing glove inners. These are much easier to put on and are great for the non-competitive fitness boxers. For gloves or other boxing gear for your training, check out our other recommendations.
