Maybe I am about to come off as a lazy * here, but here goes. I need protection to make my wrists more sturdy during class (when I punch hard, my wrist hurts). The obvious answer hand wraps. The problem is, in Muay Thai class we are constantly switching duties, for a couple rounds, I might be doing punching drills, but a few minutes later I will be holding pads for my parter while he does drills and the wraps would get in the way when I am feeding my partner. Plus I am lazy.
Anyway, I see everyone pulling these ankle guards over their feet and on to their ankles, they help stablize the ankle and protect it, etc. So my natural thought is "there must be something like that for the wrist that will provide protection and slip on & off quickly". But I didn't see anything like that on ringside.com. Does this product exist and if so where can I get a pair?

If I'm not mistaking, I've seen those before but not on the internet. I don't know how much support they offer but I'll try to find them later today when I have more time. |

Or you could use hand wraps and focus on wrapping your wrists with those. That way you would not need to take them off to hold the pads. |

You could practise punching correctly. Im not saying your doing it wrong. But if it hurts then maybe your not doing it quiet right. |

Hand wraps, if wrapped correctly don't get in the way of holding pads. _________________ Rock Paper Scissor
