Helpful tip so you can remember 3 times around the wrist 3 times around the hand 3 x’s 3 times around the knuckles and that is it if you have any left over just wrap around wrist hand etc. The thing that helps me remember is 3,333 four things three times
@@expertboxing, yes this is an important part, also, it's useful to remember to roll them up the right way as well, otherwise you'll be putting the wrap around your hands the wrong way.
That's hilarious! Mystery of the faith, right? I have large hands so 200" isn't enough for me. My wrists are all messed up because they don't get enough support with the way I wrap my hands.
This was extremely helpful, everybody's all "who did your hands?.. they are beautifully wrapped" said one of the girls that's into boxing, and I'm all.... "I Did".... as heroic music played in the background.
@@expertboxing most likely SJWs who believe being fit makes us "n@z1s". 😒 Anyway, i managed to do my left hand perfectly, but had to rewire my brain to do it on the right hand for today's session lol 😆 😆 but i managed to do it. Thanks dude, your video really helped.

@@tomhardy116 i know right lol there's a video for the left hand, but youtube won't let me post it. Just do what he does in this one, and pretend it's a mirror ☺
@@HarosOfStyx yeah I got it sorted within about 5 mins, pretty much got it now (wrote it down in my phone just in case I forget lol). I've always been used to having someone else do my wraps, so just never really remembered how to do it properly.
I have issues on my right wrist (previous weight lifting injury) and this boxing wrap has helped cushion the wrist from the shock absorbed from the heavy bag. Thank you!
Johnny, nice video! Best wrap I've tried yet. Easy to remember and simple. I still got the crap beat out of me but I'm not holding the wrap responsible. Thanks!
expertboxing Hi, do you have advice for what length wraps I should get? I train kickboxing twice a week just for general fitness (not competing or anything). My wrists, thumb & pinky hurt after sessions (especially with upper cuts!) so was advised wraps. I'm petite, about 1.5m tall 🙈 so figured 1.5m wraps would be more than enough, but I've run out of wrap following this video. 😕 Do you *have* to go round 3 times at the wrist etc? Thank you! Great video!
@@fp7770 I'm very late and I'm sure you have had instruction already, but all of the wrap patterns are necessary up until 2:00. Wrapping the wrist is just as important as wrapping the knuckles, and if your wraps cant accommodate the complete pattern then you need to up scale them. Better to chip in for better suited gear, than to experience the pain (and potential injury) of a crumpled wrist.
@@GypsySlyp Thank you for the response. I was just looking for this topic answer in the comments. Could you reframe the second part of your message? Do you recommend one purchases a longer wrap even with a smaller hand/with the extra wrap to use?
make sure u wrap ur hands to anyone who dont! i didnt for kickboxing and i screwed up my wrists! now i wrap them and it gives them support and way better!
I dont wrap my hands when i fight.... i wrap them when im punching heavy bags when im training like my instructor told me too..iv been in many fights never wrapped my hands thats fuckin gay. just doing it to protect them when im punching heavy bags for hours at training.
Boxing is a strange sport: 1. Handwraps are to secure the bones in your hand not to protect your knuckles. 2. Sparring headgear is to protect the fighters hands not to protect the partners head actually its been scientifically proven that headgear does little to prevent brain jarring or brain trauma from blows - but it looks good and safe on the amateur kids so that MothersAgainstBoxing lobby doesn't complain too much.
Some clarification for you. 1. Handwraps protect your hands by HOLDING the bones tightly together. Gloves protect the hands by PADDING the impact. Gloves also protect the opponent by decreasing likelihood of cuts. 2. Sparring headgear has been shown in some studies to help prevent brain damage. Sure, there are also studies showing the opposite but you can't make a blanket statement. I personally, do prefer sparring with headgear...just as do many other boxers.
expertboxing I kinda disagree with the first one. Gloves are kinda like a weapon for the attacker than a defense item for the punch receiver. It encourages the attacker to do more power because of the protection it offers to the knuckles, punching with bare hands unconsciously triggers the brain to withdraw the strength because of the trauma it receives due to excessive force; however, thanks to the benefits of the gloves, the limit of the force that could be given is greatly increased by a factor. Thus the headgear and body pads come in action. Don't you agree? I love your hand wrap technique by the way, that's how I do mine for years. And I kinda have that big fists problem that you mentioned.
You have a strange way of agreeing with me. The glove is not a weapon because it doesn't make you more powerful. It's not like the glove ALLOWS boxers to punch harder. All boxers will try to punch their hardest to win the fight. I don't know where you read about the "unconsciously triggers" stuff. Boxing has been about wearing gloves for a long freaken time. It's one of the mainstays of the sport. But even in a streetfight, I'd rather be giving punches rather than taking punches and I'll be punching at my hardest. As for the headgear, it exists not because of the gloves but because THEY'RE GETTING PUNCHED IN THE HEAD.
Go measure the impact of your punch with and without the gloves so you could see my point. Gloves DO assist the boxers to punch harder but it doesn't make you stronger. Fists are very fragile. Our body has limiters, the brain automatically retracts power if it knows that it's gonna damage you, try punch a sand bag with and without gloves as well. You'll realize that soon enough. Did I ever mentioned that boxing's not about wearing gloves? lol. it's for safety's sake so the boxers won't break their fists because a boxer's fist is his life. Why would you take punches in a streetfight, I don't remember saying such a thing. -_- and I don't remember telling that headgears exists because of gloves either. -_- do read before replying. :\ I WAS not criticizing you on my first reply, I was merely adding some facts. and you missed one point on the role of the hand wraps bro, it's to protect the wrist.
You're making a lot of assumptions...(although logical) that are not fact. Plenty of fighters...even ones with far LESS HAND PROTECTION than a boxing glove (ever heard of MMA?) will still punch at 100% output. It doesn't matter if you have protection or not, when the goal is to throw the hardest punch...you can bet we're gonna do it. It's what we've been trained to do for years and years. If my goal is to hurt the opponent, I will punch at 100%. If my goal is to protect my hands, I will not punch at 100%. So yeah...having gloves will allow me to punch at 100% without feeling as much pain but it's not like the gloves will actually give me more muscle or make my muscles stronger. And you wanna know something.....? My hands hurt EVEN with the gloves. It's a common problem with many other fighters too...from years of abuse. But we fight through it. To even try comparing "punching with gloves" VS "punching without gloves" is not even an option. The scenario of "punching without gloves" would not even exist for you to make your claim. Boxers wear gloves and we train to punch at 100% with them on. I don't need to do your test drill because that scenario would never exist. And you know what? I've punched plenty hard without my gloves....it's called "shadowboxing". Your claim that wearing gloves will somehow psychologically or neurologically enable fighters to punch harder is not true at all. It's logical but it's not even close. This ain't a psychology class. It's fighting and you can bet that dudes on the street, dudes in prison, dudes in bars, in the Octagon....are gonna be punching at 150 million percent even if their hands are hurting and even if their hands aren't maximally protected.
Hey Johnny! I just got my first handwrap to start training seriously. Before this i used normal bandages, but now i have professional bandages. You helped me trough this and i am so grateful!
Thanks for making the video from the perspective of looking down at our own hands. Makes it much easier to understand. Now if you could just use the same perspective and show us how to tie a neck tie!
I've always been curious about the hand wrapping stuff. I'd always assumed it was about padding the knuckles a bit while preventing injuries like wrist sprains or something.
2011: no 2012: nah 2013: nope 2014: ehh 2015: maybe 2016: possibly 2017: almost 2018: yeah right her- nope 2019: YES Now RUclips recommends me this after 8 years great job.
Very helpful. After watching this video twice I was able to get a nice, tight, professional looking wrap. Tomorrow is my first day training. I can't wait. Thanks
I started boxing a few months ago (amateur, just to stay in shape sort of thing) and I watch this every time before my class. It's become a sort of ritual. Great tutorial, good vibes. Thanks a bunch!
I call bullshit on that. No artist is ever going to go through the trouble of wrapping their hand like a boxer to assist with holding a pencil or paintbrush. Your hand would be so inflexible that any precision work with a pen would be impossible.
As a kid I would always watch my brother train, I was interested in learning how to box but my mom disapproved for some reason and made me feel awful wanting to but I'm grown now so I bought a pair of 120 cm hand wraps and training gloves. Thank you.
I'm just getting back into boxing after dropping Muay Thai 5 years ago and this tutorial was the easiest one for me to jump right back into. Wrap feels comfortable and natural without getting loose!
My 13-year old brother just picked up boxing. Used your method to wrap hands shown here in the video. Awesome stuff! Keep up these great informational videos!
just started boxing after buying some gloves three years ago. i’m going to learn as best as i can, and this video just helped a newbie wrap their hands! ty!!
Only thing I would recommend, especially for older people (I'm 50), is to go a little tighter, with a little more wrap, around the wrist. When you hit the bag repeatedly you are going to put serious stress on your wrists, especially around the base of the thumb. You need a lot of support there or you are going to either break a small bone or tear a tendon/ligament. I personally like to make it so there is NO bend at the wrist and you can drive your punches using your whole forearm/wrist/fist and wrapping your wrists tight will help you do this.
You know, Google is probably on to me. For the last few days I have been resaerching on how to use guns, the typws of guns, how to sew yourself up, how to sew others up, how to relocate dislocated shoulders, how to wrap your hands up, and all types of other shit. In reality I just want to write a story.
nice video, a while ago i was on youtube for a video like this, surprisingly there was no video. Thanks for uploading, i learn best from videos because I can pause and rewind as much as i like. Now i don't have to bug people to do it for me!
My daughter just started boxing she is 12 and her trainer showed her once and I watched but obviously I did not remember correctly because we have been starting it off incorrectly, thank you for this upload! I will be able to show her the right way now!
Tying hand wraps is something that I'm really bad at actually LOL. This video made it a hell of a lot easier, and I say thank you. I'm sure I'll be referencing your videos in the future, so thanks in advance!
I love this method!! I have really small, spiny hands and all the videos use up the wraps easily because of big hands, While this tutorial show how to even do it for small hands!! Thank you so much again :)
expertboxing hey man I don't have enough tape for running those 3 last ones around the knuckles, after those 3x's around the fingers, I got limited wrap left, how do you think I should close the wrap around my hand? (with one roll after 3x's)
Christopher Tom If your hand is too big or you bought a shorter hand wrap, try to buy the 180" hand wrap. Lessen the thumb padding and wrist padding too. Don't follow every rule in the book, just feel that your hand , knuckles got enough protection should be okay.
Thank you for this video! The instructions were clear, easy to understand, and I also appreciated the explanation at the end of why you wrap. Very helpful!
You dropped this king -> 👑 Thanks a lot man, I didn’t want to go to the first boxing lesson of my life not knowing how to even wear a wrist band 😅 you saved me from embarrassment
Looks like a great way to do it, Johnny! I didn't realize that going around the thumb like that reverses it and locks it into place. I'm going to have to incorporate that into my wrap style from now on. All I'm doing is hitting the bag, so my biggest concern is my wrist; I mainly wrap for it and not my hand. But I've noticed a solid hand leads to a solid wrist, so its all important. You're a great source of boxing info, bro; appreciate it!
Great and helpful video. A lot of wraps in UK shops seem to be 3.5m, which I find I run out after the 2nd thumb wrap even with my small hands. Definitely purchasing some 4.5m wraps. Thanks!
Thank you so much for posting this!! I started hitting the heavy bag in my workouts about 2 weeks ago!! I use gloves for the bag and I always wanted to know how to wrap my hands properly!! I was wrapping my hands very incorrectly!lol Thanks again! Very helpful!!!
Great video. I enjoyed the perspective you videotaped how wrapping will look from the individual perspective doing it. I will have to disagree with the purposes of the wrap. I was taught the wrap is to protect you hand and knuckles. There is a break so common in,the hand that it is nicknamed a boxer break. This is a break just behind the knuckle. A good wrap should prevent this from happening, and protect the bond behind the knuckle joint known as the metacarpal, distal portion. With the way I was taught, it was the "X" portion of your video that was the most important part of the wrap. Thus better able to give the metacarpal the support they need to prevent a common break. Then the wrap at the end you showed was to eliminate the little bit of wrap you had left. But only after going the "X" as much as you csn. Thank you for sharing there are many ways to wrap. I got the feeling from my teacher that there as many ways to wrap as there are people. And, many times how a person may wrap their hands will many times evolve over time. That is if a persons main focus is to give the back of the knuckles the best support they can. Concept with purpose over trying to do the same wrap exactly the same every time. I am guessing with you sharing how you wrap, mentioning there are many ways to wrap, and this way is just your favorite way of wrapping, that you had been taught mutable ways to wrap. There is or other ways to wrap that I had been told are illegal to the rules. I was told it is nicknamed, Shootgun. The design and porpoise of this wrap is to make your knuckles like brass knuckles. It is also one of the reasons a judge will come inspect an individual wrap before a match and will put their initial on the back of the hand, the wrap. So, after the match they can also varify the hands were wrapped the same as they were when last inspected. Before a person takes the wrap off after a match. The gloves I had been taught was not so much to protect your hands but the persons you were hitting. Granted that does not mean the person wrong have any internal head damage. Though it will help many injuries that would happen otherwise, without the gloves. Concussions and internal head trauma will happen. There is a strong history from many sports this will happen. Boxing is no exception and had been well established. The same with football even though their helmets give much more protection. There are some martial arts that prefer not to wrap to strengthen the knuckles. It is not for everyone. And, I would not recommend it. These are for very hard core training and teaching. The porpoise is to build more calcum, bone at the metacarples and even the knuckle joint. Some of them will also intentually break these bones so that when it heals, it is known fact it will heal back stronger. Though in doing so, one of the drawback is developing arthritis in those areas as well.
If anyone else was struggling wrapping their opposite hand, just flip the video using Video LR mirror extension from Chrome web store. Now both my hands ready to beat this meat.

Only thing I would recommend, especially for older people (I'm 50), is to go a little tighter, with a little more wrap, around the wrist. When you hit the bag repeatedly you are going to put serious stress on your wrists, especially around the base of the thumb. You need a lot of support there or you are going to either break a small bone or tear a tendon/ligament. I personally like to make it so there is NO bend at the wrist and you can drive your punches using your whole forearm/wrist/fist and wrapping your wrists tight will help you do this.
You know, Google is probably on to me.
For the last few days I have been resaerching on how to use guns, the typws of guns, how to sew yourself up, how to sew others up, how to relocate dislocated shoulders, how to wrap your hands up, and all types of other shit.
In reality I just want to write a story.
hahahaha
@@expertboxing Holy shit, just realized this is from 9 fricking years ago. Thanks for replying and hearting my comment 9 years later. I am honored.
@@cezar3169 what
i watched 100 of these videos of how to wrap hands and this was by far the best one!!!! thank you so much
Thank you, Veronica!
Thanks! That was clear and very helpful to us starter boxers. Much appreciated!
Glad I could help!
i've been using this for 3 years now! Thanks man!
11 year old video and still going strong, Simple and precise gets the job done thanks.
:)
nice video, a while ago i was on youtube for a video like this, surprisingly there was no video. Thanks for uploading, i learn best from videos because I can pause and rewind as much as i like. Now i don't have to bug people to do it for me!
This is crazy but I have never wrapped between the fingers for training or sparring, this feels so much better, thanks
You're welcome!
Excellent. This is the best hand wrapping tutorial on RUclips
My daughter just started boxing she is 12 and her trainer showed her once and I watched but obviously I did not remember correctly because we have been starting it off incorrectly, thank you for this upload! I will be able to show her the right way now!
awesome!
thanks man! watched this on the fly at the gym and it got the job done
Clear and good instructions. I've picked up bag-punching to my exercises and this helped a ton.
As a 17 year old wanting to protect my hands against my bag, this will help me for sure 100%
Even tho this video was 8 years ago it still helped me thanks bro 👍👍
Best method I've seen yet. I like the part that explains the reasoning behind the wrap. Good job.
Glad it was helpful!
Tying hand wraps is something that I'm really bad at actually LOL. This video made it a hell of a lot easier, and I say thank you. I'm sure I'll be referencing your videos in the future, so thanks in advance!
I love this method!! I have really small, spiny hands and all the videos use up the wraps easily because of big hands, While this tutorial show how to even do it for small hands!! Thank you so much again :)
you're very welcome!
The end bit with the extra x's is pretty damn useful. Now I check for the longest handwraps for the added protection.
Been looking for a wrap suiting me. Just found it. Thank you 🙏🏼
Glad I could help!
Man, RUclips back then was so much more simple, no 50-second long intros and no hard clickbait
💯
Wow, this is way better than the method my boxing coach taught me. Thanks.
You're welcome.
expertboxing hey man I don't have enough tape for running those 3 last ones around the knuckles, after those 3x's around the fingers, I got limited wrap left, how do you think I should close the wrap around my hand? (with one roll after 3x's)
Christopher Tom you only have to do it 1 time around the fingers.
Christopher Tom Im with exactly the same problem xD
Christopher Tom If your hand is too big or you bought a shorter hand wrap, try to buy the 180" hand wrap. Lessen the thumb padding and wrist padding too. Don't follow every rule in the book, just feel that your hand , knuckles got enough protection should be okay.
I am going to try this when I am going for my next Boxing Session! Thanks!!
I've been using this method for a year now and it's the best one so far, thanks man!!
Thank you for this video! The instructions were clear, easy to understand, and I also appreciated the explanation at the end of why you wrap. Very helpful!
Thanks and glad you like it.
thank you so much this tutorial feels way easyer the most of other tutorials
You're very welcome!
I literally watched this so frequently i now know the method from memory. Thanks Johnny!
Happy to help!
just did my first one from watching this, thanks!
***** ^wtf
Your a good teacher expert boxing. I learned how to wrap my hands at 14 yrs of age coming from a family of boxers.
14 isnt that young
Krizzzy90898
I should have mastered it at 9 yrs like my son did :-)
+Tone B Nine isn't young
+EatTheCheeto His grandson will master it at 5 yrs of age...
+John Makalu five isn't young
I've been using this technique for the past 7 years of my boxing journey. Thanks
awesome! glad it still works well for you.
And the right arm
Yes you are right
+KingChinpira I like to pour honey all over it and then dip into a barrel of broken glass.
+expertboxing What movie is that from?
+axusdawg yeah kick boxer with Jean Claude VD
+expertboxing lol that kickboxer reference
I used this method 5 yrs ago when i started boxing and im still using it to this day.
Hey, thanks for this comment!
will this method cut my bloodflow? I'm scared
@@achilloste6265 no youll be ok, just dont wrap them to tight
@@expertboxing still using!
Re visited you channel after 10 yrs or so .. earlier i used it to train myself now training my kids.🙏🏼
Damn so much nostalgia in these hand wraps man
You dropped this king -> 👑
Thanks a lot man, I didn’t want to go to the first boxing lesson of my life not knowing how to even wear a wrist band 😅 you saved me from embarrassment
haahahah i know the feeling and that’s what my channel is for. helping people learn without risk of social or physical punishment :)
Best hand wrap tutorial I've ever seen thank you
really glad you like it
Johnny, great video. I'm just starting out and this is knowledge I need. Thanks again!
My trainer at fedex wrapped it up kinda like this especially around the thumb to stabilize it. That's really important
Thumb is important in boxing? I dont thnink so.
Just started boxing and this is the best video ive seen on how to put on hand wraps. Good stuff!
awesome, i’m glad you liked it
I'm starting boxing tommorow and this was really helpful!
Looks like a great way to do it, Johnny! I didn't realize that going around the thumb like that reverses it and locks it into place. I'm going to have to incorporate that into my wrap style from now on. All I'm doing is hitting the bag, so my biggest concern is my wrist; I mainly wrap for it and not my hand. But I've noticed a solid hand leads to a solid wrist, so its all important. You're a great source of boxing info, bro; appreciate it!
Great and helpful video. A lot of wraps in UK shops seem to be 3.5m, which I find I run out after the 2nd thumb wrap even with my small hands. Definitely purchasing some 4.5m wraps. Thanks!
Thank you so much for posting this!! I started hitting the heavy bag in my workouts about 2 weeks ago!! I use gloves for the bag and I always wanted to know how to wrap my hands properly!! I was wrapping my hands very incorrectly!lol Thanks again! Very helpful!!!
I’ve done a few variations of wrap styles and this one’s always the most comfortable in a glove
I'm really glad you like it. I still use this one, too.
This works really well for me thank you ... now I’m ready to go back in against my wife , wish me luck
🧐
Going up against the lineal, undefeated, undisputed champ of the house, huh? Keep your guard up and protect yourself at all times, brother! Good luck!
Are you alright??
It's been 8 months no replies..... are you ded my guy???
@@kumarthecowboy he lost the fight
Really helpful for a complete beginner like me. Loads of thanks, I subbed straight away
awesome, glad you like it!
Simple but still took a while to find a clear concise vid. This one's the best, thanks!
This really helped my girlfriend thank you
Man, I came back here to thank you for your tip.
It worked a lot better than the last technique I've tried.
Thanks a lot, bro.
Great news! Glad you like it.
Great video. I enjoyed the perspective you videotaped how wrapping will look from the individual perspective doing it.
I will have to disagree with the purposes of the wrap. I was taught the wrap is to protect you hand and knuckles. There is a break so common in,the hand that it is nicknamed a boxer break. This is a break just behind the knuckle.
A good wrap should prevent this from happening, and protect the bond behind the knuckle joint known as the metacarpal, distal portion.
With the way I was taught, it was the "X" portion of your video that was the most important part of the wrap. Thus better able to give the metacarpal the support they need to prevent a common break.
Then the wrap at the end you showed was to eliminate the little bit of wrap you had left. But only after going the "X" as much as you csn.
Thank you for sharing there are many ways to wrap. I got the feeling from my teacher that there as many ways to wrap as there are people. And, many times how a person may wrap their hands will many times evolve over time. That is if a persons main focus is to give the back of the knuckles the best support they can. Concept with purpose over trying to do the same wrap exactly the same every time.
I am guessing with you sharing how you wrap, mentioning there are many ways to wrap, and this way is just your favorite way of wrapping, that you had been taught mutable ways to wrap.
There is or other ways to wrap that I had been told are illegal to the rules. I was told it is nicknamed, Shootgun. The design and porpoise of this wrap is to make your knuckles like brass knuckles.
It is also one of the reasons a judge will come inspect an individual wrap before a match and will put their initial on the back of the hand, the wrap.
So, after the match they can also varify the hands were wrapped the same as they were when last inspected. Before a person takes the wrap off after a match.
The gloves I had been taught was not so much to protect your hands but the persons you were hitting.
Granted that does not mean the person wrong have any internal head damage. Though it will help many injuries that would happen otherwise, without the gloves.
Concussions and internal head trauma will happen. There is a strong history from many sports this will happen. Boxing is no exception and had been well established. The same with football even though their helmets give much more protection.
There are some martial arts that prefer not to wrap to strengthen the knuckles. It is not for everyone. And, I would not recommend it. These are for very hard core training and teaching. The porpoise is to build more calcum, bone at the metacarples and even the knuckle joint. Some of them will also intentually break these bones so that when it heals, it is known fact it will heal back stronger. Though in doing so, one of the drawback is developing arthritis in those areas as well.
Good one can't close my fucking hand
Well then you're doing it wrong
+DarkSamuraiHD keep your fingers spread out while you wrap
when u do the X make a fist will work 200% :)
wow good way
DarkSamuraiHD 😂😂😂😂
When newbies come to gym and ask me how to wrap "this thing" I just show them this video.
Carles lol
I have actually 100% memorized this to wrap my hands for muay thai for every practice. Thanks
Thank you its a great wrap looks comfortable, and also thanks for explaining the purpose of the wrap.
This was extremely clear and concise. Thank you very much!
Finally someone came up with the idea to record from users's perspective, and I was able to follow this :)
Best video on the subject!
If anyone else was struggling wrapping their opposite hand, just flip the video using Video LR mirror extension from Chrome web store. Now both my hands ready to beat this meat.
