How to protect finger joints in boxing

It is best not to hit sandbags without the foundation of fighting training.

If you insist on playing, then pay attention to the following points:

1, don't hit too heavy sandbags. People who haven't practiced pose incorrectly, and elbows and shoulders are often locked at the wrong angle. Heavy bags can cause pain in the back, shoulders, elbows and wrists. Generally, the sandbags in the gym are light sandbags. No practice, no heavy bags in the gym.

2. Handbags are sold in sporting goods stores. Buy the longest stretch, and there are videos on the Internet to teach you how to pack.

If gloves are shoes, hand straps are socks. Hand binding has many advantages, which can protect wrists and knuckles, fill gaps in gloves and prevent slipping after sweating. Hand straps can be washed, gloves can't, just like sweaty feet without socks, gloves will soon stink.

3, wear gloves, gloves to buy heavy bags, 14oz or 16oz, heavier gloves can not only protect your hands better, but also carry a good load. You will feel the weight of gloves after five or six rounds. In the tenth round, if 16oz's gloves weigh 1000 pounds, hold on at this moment.

4, boxing posture should be correct, first practice empty boxing, then hit the target and sandbags, find a boxing gym to learn the basic position and strength mode.

5, the contact surface should be positive, when punching, use the fist front of the index finger and the middle finger to contact the target because this is the biggest and strongest fist front, and it is in a straight line with the arm and will not twist the wrist. If you touch the fist front of the little finger, you will get hurt, because the little finger joint is fragile and unstable, and it is easy to get hurt.
