I've been having some soreness in my hands since I starting hitting the heavybag a few months ago. I would use the long wraps with sponges in the knuckle area and still feel pain when punching. I copped the evergel handwraps yesterday, and after a 30 minute session today, my hands feel like a million bucks with no pain at all. I was very skepticle about them at first, but now I higly recommend them. Anybody else use them?
Yeh i have , used em and then binned then and went back to handwraps. although the knuckle protection is great i thought wrist support was ****
Sorry what does "binned" mean? I've never heard that term before. Did they tear? I've never had any wrist issues, only knuckle problems, so they seem to work well for me. I was also wondering if I could use the shorter wraps around the gel gloves for more reinforcement?
sorry i threw them away they were crap, i did try cutting them up to wear just the gel knuckle part and wrap over the top as the velcro wrist part got in the way. Worked ok. Still go with just hand wraps now though! Im thinking of putting something over the knuckles and wrapping over the top and then using duct tape over the top of the wraps to secure. Seen people with that arrangement and apparently the duct tape makes it so much stronger but i cant see any guides on the net on how best to do it! So just gunna have a go tmoz before boxing
i use them all the time cheep and work great for knuckle protection. However, the wrist isn't but that great.
i had a set i bought for my wife. I bring them with me in my gym bag in case anyone else from my shop wants to do bag or mitt training while we're at the gym on base. I think the protection is okay but they seem to slide around on my hands a little bit so my knuckles get rashed up pretty bad from them. I prefer wraps.
I use them and love them. I just tighten down the wrists a good bit and add some supporting tape. If they made a version with wider wrist straps, that would be perfect.
