Самая лучшая биниовка, только ей и пользуюсь на тренировках. СПАСИБО

[mitisimoccc]

you are not doing it right

[HealthyBe]

no worries

Video shows fast method(I do 30 sec each hand). Length 108". This is for grappling or light punching training(speed/technique)

Heavy bag:

1st layer-use your own way to protect e.g. thumb ,metacarpals, knuckles

2nd layer-apply my method to keep it in place.

use 180" Professional Hand Wraps and special "heavy bag gloves", MMA gloves are a bad choice.

Note: wraps only reduce risk of injury and do not provide 100% protection.

Christopher Walken, is that you?

for the best wrap method search Boxing Tips : How to Tie Hand Wraps(it says boxing but good for MMA too) sorry but the method on this video is not good at all just because there is no support over the metacarpals in your hands which is the main reason u wrap hands in the first place because its the most common injury in combat sports, wrapping this way is very dangerous in a fight and specially if u are training with a heavy bag, there are manny ways to wrap and this is the worst sorry

@BiGLoS2212 what would you recommend for a large hand with 108inc wrap?

I saw the "Boxing Tips : How to Tie Hand Wraps", and indeed that offers way greater protection than HealthyBe's method, but as I stated, i have 108inc wrap.. i think he has that size too...

[BiGLoS2212]

@andr3i001 you need 180 inch size wraps, those are the best for maximum protection they should sell them at any sporting good store and if not buy them from title boxing or title mma websites they both end with a com, thats where i buy all of my boxing equiptment from they have EVERYTHING you need for boxing and MMA good luck

[jamesthera]

@BiGLoS2212 i agree one needs support over metacarpals but people need to get over the wimpy padded  heavy bags that cushion blows. i makes fighters incapable of finding good technique when it comes to a punch. you shouldn't NEED hand wraps if you don't have proper technique in a punch its on the fighter. no the wraps

[BiGLoS2212]

@jamesthera not true because when u punch hard things over and over for years its doing damage every time even in sparring fighters fracture their wrists and bones in their hands for example Andre Ward Fractured his hand a week and half ago in sparring and hes an olympic gold medal winner and a 25-0 fighter with two world titles and won the second one with a broken hand last week, hand injurries are gonna happen wraps just help but dont prevent them completely even w/ good technique

[jamesthera]

@BiGLoS2212 sure. i understand that hand wraps are very important now for preventing needless fractures and i do agree people break things all the time because of improper wrapping or non-exisance of wrapping. I plan on always using wrapping, i simply disagree that one 100% NEEDS 180" hand wraps. it may be myself being sore and poor and unable to get them. i'm sorry if i made you feel stupid or such but i felt the fact that improper training and bags are just hurting. not helping

[vmaisonger]

@BiGLoS2212 Which metacarpal did he fracture? I'll bet it was one of the two small ones....which would mean he was hitting improperly. Recall that Tyson broke his hand as well. Most boxers rely on their taped hands and hit wrong. Sad, but true. Only the first two knuckles should be used. I have never heard of anyone breaking those, it's always the last two.

[BiGLoS2212]

@vmaisonger i disagree, you have to remember that in a match you are fighting a moving opponent who is moving his head, sidestepping, slipping and bloocking punches so even with the all the best technique anything can happen, example: if you throw a perfect hook turning your knuckles over and perfect technique it all depends on your opponent that 1 of 3 things will happen, 1)he slips/ducks/blocks punch ,2)he gets caught flush or 3) he tries to duck/slip and the punch grazes him

[BiGLoS2212]

@vmaisonger in my opinion MMA fighters are the guys who punch wrong, alot of them are wild swingers best at kicking and grappling or ground fighting the worst is the "HAMMER FIST" thats only hitting with the two small metacarpals you mentioned not to hit with, point boxers punch with the best technique because thats what we train to do all day proper punching and defence maybe you should join or try a boxing club so you can clear up those misconceptions you have about boxers/boxing

[Martialdoismyway]

@BiGLoS2212 a lot of MMA fighters punch "wrong" or differently then to boxers is because it's a different fight from a boxing fight. They're both fights that take althleticism, skill, and heart, but they're different. Boxing is all punching, how to defend/counter/evade punching, MMA is kickboxing, clinch striking, and ground fighting. Just like how grappling is to striking, both similar but different rules, techniques etc. Much respect to the boxing world from a submission grappler. Peace
