Sport - is life. This statement has existed for a long time, and you can add to it that sport is health and maintaining your body in good shape. A proper training will give an even more worthy result. One of the most important moments in training is the correctly selected inventory and equipment. I would like to pay attention to engaging in various types of martial arts, as in this sport the greatest number of injuries occurs. And itβs worth starting with how to properly wrap boxing bandages.
Boxing bandages will greatly help to save and protect the hands of a novice athlete from injuries. Therefore, it will be useful to know how to bandage boxing bandages correctly in order to avoid various injuries. To begin with, it is worth deciding on the choice of boxing bandages, the main differences between the bandages are their length, width and material, and you can especially "not go in cycles" in color. For a long time, professionals have not wondered how to tie bandages correctly, and this process is already automatic for them, and over time, beginners in various martial arts will not be asked similar questions.
Returning to the difference in boxing bandages, it is necessary to understand that their length and width mainly depends on the size of the hand, the larger the wrist and the larger the hand, therefore, the more boxing bandages should be. But special attention should be paid to the material from which they are made. Elastic bandages can squeeze the wrist and blood circulation can deteriorate, and the mobility of the joints is limited, which leads only to injuries. It is advisable to look at ordinary cotton bandages made of inelastic material, as they absorb moisture well, significantly soften the blows and sit tightly on the hand.
Next, we figure out how to properly wrap boxing bandages. For greater convenience, you first need to unwind the bandages and rewind them vice versa, that is, so that the loop that is worn on the thumb is on the outside, it will be more convenient to store and tie them.
When winding a boxing bandage, you need to choose the optimal winding density, since when winding a bandage should not dangle or squeeze your hand. Paying attention to how to properly wrap boxing bandages, you need to start by putting a loop on your finger and wrap your hand from the outside: this is quite important, since it helps to lay the bandage on your hand more tightly and conveniently. We fix the next round on the wrist, since its base should lie there, it is the safest and helps protect against injuries and avoid dislocations. Gradually transfer the bandage to the knuckles, at this point you need to pay special attention to how to properly wrap boxing bandages: you should start with the little finger, and without neglecting the density of winding, the little finger should not make a lot of skeins and tighten the bandage tightly.
Wrap your fingers should constantly returning to the wrist. After the little finger, go to the index finger, then transfer the bandage between the index and middle fingers. Next, we deal with the middle and ring fingers, constantly making skeins around the wrist. Having made several skeins, we tighten so as to adjust the winding density, and we make several skeins around the knuckles across the arm.
Having finished wrapping around the palm of your hand, it is necessary to go to the wrist and make several revolutions there to fix the wrist, but not very tight, to prevent injury. And then we just glue the velcro tape located on the end of the bandage onto the fabric, some push the end of the bandage under the loop, but this is still an amateur and can lead to inconvenience. Now you need to look at the hand and pay attention so that all the knuckles are closed and securely protected.
