    16oz , i bought mine before i went to the gym for the first time , glad to see thats the size everyone else uses ( begginers anyways) and the ones they supply too. Dont find em too heavy. Also i can hit the heavy bag concentrating on technique and know i wont hurt my hands lol

    lol i do tend to drop my hands tho one of the coaches in the gym said its my worst point. Ill throw combos and leave one hand usually my right too low at the end lol then you get a quick slap in the face and a " right youd be on the floor now " . I got the point lol
