what kind of gloves and or wraps do i need for heavy bag training?

[boxerbilly]

so unless you are training for gloved boxing competition would you all advise against boxing gloves when working out on the heavy bag? What about just wrapping the wrists and using work gloves?

Everyone is going to have different opinions. What ever you choose to use just start slow. Like half speed/power maybe less until you know you are landing square on the bag. Start by working individual techniques and then move into small combos and then you can freestyle probably in a month. The most likely injury will be not landing flush and your fist turns under and that will F---ing hurt and may take you off the bag for more than a month so really, start slow and main focus is landing properly. That is probably way more important than what you wrap or glove in, in my opinion.
