How To: Protect your hands in boxing with a correct handwrap

Quinten shows us how to protect your hands in boxing using a correct hand wrap in this video. When you punch something, you put a lot of pressure on your hands and wrists so wrapping your hands before this is highly recommended. First, start on one end of the wrap and put your thumb through the loop at the end. Go over the top of the wrist first, then go over the top of the hand over the knuckles. Keep your fingers parted so the wrap doesn't become too tight at the end. Go between the knuckles and behind the thumb, going from the top to the bottom. To finish, go back across the knuckles and do a criss-cross formation across the wrist and the hand. Pull firmly towards the end and you're finished!
