During a training session with a friend up in San Francisco he showed me the Thai method of hand wrapping. Basically it involves bunching up a length of wrap over your knuckles first, then wrapping around that part. It’s much faster to do and provides thicker knuckle protection. Here’s a video of how to do it from the guys at Daddis Training Centers in Philly. I’m going to start wrapping this way from now on.

Joe Heckel said he and his son were moving a TKO brand heavy punching bag from their garage to the basement when they decided to see what was inside in case the bag later leaked. But Heckel said that instead of sand or plastic pellets, he found the bag full of men’s and women’s underwear, some of it used.

If you love massive amounts of dirty undies, make tracks (ahem) to your sporting goods store and pick up a TKO heavybag before they get pulled off the shelves! I love it when my heavybag smells like bag.
