For example, bag work gloves differ from sparring gloves, which are different from fighting and competition gloves. In youth boxing, whether kids are training on a heavy bag or sparring with a coach or partner, lightweight bag work gloves are usually your best bet. FightCamp offers 6 oz. kids boxing gloves that are perfect for kids (and parents!) who want solid protection and a quality glove when training.","What type of boxing glove is best for kids?","faq_schema",{"_uid":672,"answer":673,"question":674,"component":670},"90757f95-c607-4b64-a944-03a05280c702","Shopping for kids’ boxing gloves isn’t much different than shopping for recreational or professional boxing gloves.

Padding & Stitching - Look for gloves with enough padding to adequately protect the fingers, hands, and wrists. Additionally, opt for gloves with heavy duty construction and stitching to ensure that they will hold up to boxing training and use. 2. Comfortable Fit - Kids’ boxing gloves should fit comfortably and securely around your child’s hand and allow for plenty of free movement, while still providing support and stability. Also, we all know that kids don’t like to wear things that aren’t comfortable, so to make sure that your child actually uses and wears their gloves when training, you want to make sure they like them! 3. Easy To Put On - Regardless of the size and style, boxing gloves with velcro straps are usually best for kids because they’re much easier to get on and off. Velcro straps also allow kids to adjust the tightness around their wrists. Once again, when it comes to kids--the easier, the better, and the more likely they will be to use them! 4. Room for Wraps - If possible, have your child try on gloves while wearing boxing hand wraps to make sure that the gloves will fit correctly on top of the wraps. Boxing hand wraps are another added layer of protection for hands, which is especially important for children when they’re throwing those punches on the heavy bag. 5. Size - Whether your child is training in boxing, kickboxing, or martial arts, glove sizes are measured in ounces and are typically based on weight, as opposed to age. If your ten year-old weighs 70-90 lbs, look for 6-8 oz. boxing gloves. Depending on hand size and weight, 10-16 oz. gloves may be perfect for children anywhere in the 8-14 year range, and for children younger than 8 years old, 6-8 oz. boxing gloves may be recommended. [For more detailed guidance on selecting glove size for kids based on age, read this article.] The bottom line? A kid’s bag glove should fit well, be comfortable and secure, and have enough padding to prevent hand and wrist injuries upon impact with a punching bag. And remember, kids grow fast, so while you don’t want to sacrifice quality for cost, keep in mind that you may be buying new gloves pretty regularly as they grow.","5 Tips For Choosing Boxing Gloves For Kids",{"name":64,"created_at":65,"published_at":66,"updated_at":67,"id":68,"uuid":69,"content":680,"slug":84,"full_slug":85,"sort_by_date":48,"position":86,"tag_list":692,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":57,"meta_data":48,"group_id":88,"first_published_at":89,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":693,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":71,"name":72,"category":681,"component":39,"meta_info":689,"block_image":690,"cover_image":691,"internal_notes":7},{"name":19,"created_at":20,"published_at":21,"updated_at":22,"id":23,"uuid":24,"content":682,"slug":19,"full_slug":132,"sort_by_date":48,"position":133,"tag_list":687,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":135,"meta_data":48,"group_id":136,"first_published_at":137,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":688,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},{"_uid":26,"name":27,"topics":683,"component":118,"meta_info":684,"meta_title":123,"block_image":685,"cover_image":686,"internal_notes":7,"meta_description":131},[35,69,97],{"_uid":120,"title":121,"plugin":43,"description":122},{"id":125,"alt":126,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":126,"filename":127,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":129,"alt":126,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":126,"filename":130,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"_uid":74,"title":75,"plugin":43,"description":76},{"id":78,"alt":79,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":79,"filename":80,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},{"id":82,"alt":79,"name":7,"focus":48,"title":79,"filename":83,"copyright":7,"fieldtype":50},[],[],{"name":695,"created_at":696,"published_at":697,"updated_at":698,"id":699,"uuid":700,"content":701,"slug":711,"full_slug":712,"sort_by_date":48,"position":392,"tag_list":713,"is_startpage":9,"parent_id":714,"meta_data":48,"group_id":715,"first_published_at":716,"release_id":48,"lang":60,"path":48,"alternates":717,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48,"_stopResolving":62},"Emma Comery","2021-09-10T15:40:29.758Z","2022-02-08T23:26:31.640Z","2022-02-08T23:26:31.662Z",71000024,"80f43270-bd4a-4ca3-91a4-9a2b1e1d0d6b",{"bio":702,"_uid":703,"name":695,"photo":704,"component":707,"social_link_tiktok":7,"social_link_twitter":7,"social_link_website":708,"social_link_youtube":7,"social_link_facebook":7,"social_link_linkedin":709,"social_link_instagram":710,"social_link_pinterest":7},"Emma Comery is a freelance writer, working toward her MFA in Nonfiction at Old Dominion University.

Athletes can be notoriously hard to buy for, between our training schedules and our busy lifestyles we can be hard to figure out when it comes to gifts. Luckily the FightCamp Trainers have taken the guesswork out of buying gifts for athletes this holiday season. Here is our list of the best gifts for athletes:\n\nNike Air Zoom Tempo Next%\nA pair of reliable running shoes are a must-have for any athlete, and if the fitness fanatic in your life is anything like me, sometimes we hold onto old shoes for much longer than we should. So this Christmas or Hanukkah one awesome gift for the athlete in your life is a pair of reliable running shoes. Coach PJ suggests the Nike Air series, and I have to agree. I own a pair myself, and they really help keep my feet from getting sore during long roadwork.\n\nRogue Kettlebells\nKettlebells are awesome for more ergonomic, natural movement weight training and they are also way more compact than a traditional weight set. The Rogue kettlebell set is a great option for combat athletes because they’re great in value price wise and kettlebells in general are just so versatile. Having a couple of different-sized kettlebells will save your favorite athlete a ton in equipment costs down the line!\n\nHypervolt Massage Gun\nAthletes are fantastic at pushing themselves to go that extra mile, get that extra rep, or fight that extra round. Taking care of our body afterward? Not so much. Help your workout buddy out this holiday season by getting them a massage gun (and maybe a gentle reminder that recovery is just as important as the workout). Shanie Smash recommends the Hypervolt massage gun. Let me tell you, these things work. Massage guns are great for reducing muscle soreness and releasing lactic acid buildup and tension. \n\nHyperice Compression Sleeves\nAnother awesome recovery item, every athlete knows the meme about skipping leg day, and there is a good reason it exists: leg day, and especially leg recovery, sucks. Make it a little easier to resist the temptation to skip leg day by gifting your athlete (or yourself) some good compression sleeves this holiday season. I’m a big proponent of ice packs and massages, and this combines the best of both worlds. \n\nCryotherapy Gift Cards\nCryo is amazing, and if you’ve never done it before we highly recommend treating yourself or a loved one this holiday season. I have used it to recover from some of the hardest training days, and let me tell you even just one session goes a long way. Jess Evans was right on the money with this suggestion. Any athlete will love getting a Cryo treatment after a tough workout.\n\nConnected Fitness Membership\nAthletes love staying fit so make working out even more fun for them by gifting a connected fitness membership. Online training subscriptions give you the option to exercise out of the comfort of your own home or while traveling and on a schedule you can create for yourself. Most connected fitness memberships also come with the option of purchasing exercise equipment for the home gym.

The accessibility factor alone helps you seamlessly integrate training into your schedule, reaping the full rewards of a fighter’s approach to living well.\n\nFitness trends come and go, but boxing endures. Dedicated boxers and kickboxers incorporate health-conscious decisions in all aspects of their lives, exuding resilience, strength, and self-awareness. Boxing training brings out the fighter within, helping you become the best version of yourself in all that you do.\n\nThough I’m not prepping to step into the ring, I strive to nurture my physical and mental health every day. Joining an online boxing program and having a punching bagmade it easy to pursue that goal. It even surprised me with a few unexpected perks.","How can a punching bag transform your body, mind, and lifestyle?",{"_uid":3299,"answer":3300,"question":3301,"component":670},"d577338a-777e-4c41-bdab-310b7c5b9a53","There is no doubt that shadowboxing is an essential aspect of boxing training, but having a punching bag takes your workouts to another level. Using a heavy bag makes even a quick session more effective by increasing the intensity.\n\nBoxing and kickboxing workouts on a bag provide the perfect combination of cardio with strength training to tone and condition your entire body. Adding the resistance of a heavy bag helps to build muscle. It even trains your balance and coordination, leading to a stronger fighting stance and more power with every strike.\n\nI can feel the difference after just one workout, and I could see the difference in my muscle tone even after a few weeks.","1.

Even better, you get instant feedback on where you are making contact with the bag. You can feel when your arm is not fully extended, or when a kick is not landing on the correct part of your leg, giving you a chance to correct it.","2.

Having a heavy bag has added variety to my workouts, and even opened up a new, fun realm of creative customization for truly unique bag drills.\n\nMost importantly, it allows me to personalize my boxing training. This means I can plan my own roadwork, shadowboxing, weight training, and bag drills however I like. I would often opt out of my scheduled boxing class times if I just went on a challenging hike to avoid burnout. With my own bag, I can choose when I want to up the intensity with a full-body bag workout, and when I want to scale back my cardio with bodyweight exercises or some relaxing yoga.\n\nWith scheduled classes, I was at the mercy of whatever the instructor had planned that day. In group settings, trainers can’t meet everyone’s needs at their individual fitness level.

The result was a less than stellar workout that left me feeling drained rather than energized. Now I can plan everything out in advance, which includes making fresh smoothies packed with protein – a delicious, nourishing treat I could only rarely enjoy until I started hitting the bag at home.\n\nThose small healthy choices start to accumulate.
