The Importance of Boxing Protective Gear
Everyone who trains in boxing or martial arts and engages in sparring understands the importance of wearing a mouth guard, a groin guard, and gloves. But what about all of the other types of protective gear?
The headgear, shin guards, elbow pads, etc. that fighters and athletes wear during sparring sessions and amateur fights are obviously meant to protect some of the most vulnerable parts of the body. However, that boxing protective gear is meant to further optimize the fighter’s skills and abilities by preventing setbacks due to the injury that can take place during hard training.
Headgear is designed to protect the head from scrapes, cuts, and swelling. It’s also meant to protect your head in the event that you fall and hit your head on the mat.
Sparring shin guards are meant to protect your shins as well as your training partner’s shins and ankles from bruising and fractures. If you train in martial arts, especially Muay Thai, shin guards are an absolute necessity during sparring and amateur fights as it takes time to build up shin strength.
Elbow pads allow fighters to safely practice their elbow strikes during sparring sessions. They help to soften the blow while preventing intense cuts and injuries.
Anklets were designed to support the ankle joints and tendons, and prevent slippage during both training and sparring sessions.
