Boxing - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

I highly recommend you to go for a branded one. An unknown brand may not last for years. There is a chance of dye coming out and leather splitting after one training session itself. The main brands I would recommend are Hayabusa, Cleto Reyes, Reevo. Only a branded pair of gloves can last longer. Hire for a good martial arts store where you will get best martial arts accessories. Hatashita International at Waterloo, Ontario is the one which I know.

You can purchase boxing gloves online at http://www.muaythaistuff.com, you canfind many different brands of boxing gloves as you like, and they got it all.In addition you can trust their online ordering services, its fast delivery andtrustworthy products, I'm very satisfied from their online ordering service.

There are numerous types of mouth guards that you can choose from. The best type is the custom made mouth guards that you get at the dentist office. However, they are more expensive. If you want a less expensive mouth guard, I'd go with the boil and bite mouth guards because they adjust to your teeth very well. You can read more information about mouth guards on this website: http://dentistry.about.com/od/basicdentalcare/f/mouthguardtype.htm

Could you please add more information and perhaps ask it in the relevant category?

Punching bags are often filled with grains, rags, sand. There are punching bags with an internal bladder to allow them to be filled with air or water.

Speed bags are pretty small bags filled with air and they help a fighter to learn to remember keeping his hands up and also to improve the fighter's hand-eye coordination and learn to shift weight between feet when punching.

If you're weighing in the 140-170 lb. you should buy a punching bag weighing around 70-90 lb. if your close to 140 you should buy a 70 etc. if you a big guy weighing over 170 lb. you should get over 100 lb. bag. There is also heavy punching bags suitable for children and the weight around 25-55 lb.

Both the base and pillar holding the torso are made from high quality plastic that is very strong and sturdy. The torso section is made from rubber. They are designed to be as lifelike as possible, so usually the torso is made from a harder rubber than the face section.

Technically, you can hit a BOB bag with the same amount of strength you would a traditional heavy punching bag; however it would defeat the purpose. When you hit as hard as you can your aim is to develop power, strength and stamina. These are not the same goals you would be working towards training on a BOB.

There are two known ways to avoid knuckle soreness - conditioning and the use of safety equipment. As far as safety equipment is concerned, you should always be wearing the proper protective gear (gloves and hadwraps). You can also opt to buy some knuckle guards. Conditioning, on the other hand, requires hand training. Exercises such as knuckle pushups will help to strengthen your knuckles, wrists and forearms.

I found you a diagram that outlines a method of using cloth to protect your hands. Just remember that this is not the only source of protection you should be using. Make sure to also wear gloves.
