    Advice Wanted

    Hey, i just recently got into boxing, and I was wondering if anyone could recommend me a pair of heavy bag gloves? I am a 6' heavyweight with reasonably big hands. I went to our local sports store, and 12 oz felt about right, although they didn't really have much of a selection, and i can get them cheaper online.

    Also, do more ounces in a glove mean the fit of the glove is actually bigger, or does that just mean it has more padding.....or both?

    Thanks a lot​

    Hey! For your size (6' heavyweight with big hands), I'd recommend 14 oz or 16 oz gloves for heavy bag work. They'll offer better protection for your hands and wrists. As for your question, more ounces mainly means more padding, not a bigger fit. The glove's hand compartment doesn't necessarily change with the padding size, so if you have big hands, check reviews or look for gloves known to fit larger hands. Brands like Ringside, Winning, and Title are solid choices.

      The best advice for boxing is to stay consistent with training, as progress comes over time. Focus on mastering the basics like jabs, footwork, and defense before complex moves. Always protect yourself, especially your head, and keep your guard up. Good footwork helps you stay balanced, avoid punches, and create openings. But, you can't music during boxing, so you may visit the best Playlist app of the world.

        The most important advice for boxing is to remain consistent with your training, as improvement takes time. Start by mastering the fundamentals, such as jabs, footwork, and defense, before moving on to more advanced techniques. Always prioritize your safety, especially protecting your head and keeping your guard up. Good footwork is essential for staying balanced, dodging punches, and creating opportunities for counterattacks. While you can’t listen to music during a boxing session, you can always check out the best playlist apps to get pumped up before or after your workout.

          The key to success in boxing is consistency in your training, as progress takes time. Begin by focusing on the basics—jabs, footwork, and defense—before advancing to more complex techniques. Always prioritize your safety, especially by protecting your head and keeping your guard up. Strong footwork is crucial for maintaining balance, evading punches, and setting up counterattacks. While you can’t listen to music during your boxing sessions, you can still check out the best playlist apps to get energized before or after your workout.

              I highly recommend the BOT2.0 gloves...they're the best in the business and will definitely protect your hands on the heavy bag.

                  For your size and heavy bag work, I’d suggest going with 14 oz or even 16 oz gloves to give your hands and wrists proper protection. The extra ounces mostly mean more padding rather than a bigger fit, so the hand compartment will feel similar — but brands do vary, so it’s worth checking reviews to see which ones cater to bigger hands. Ringside and Winning are solid choices if you want durability and comfort. Good gloves make a huge difference, the same way the right lighting makes a difference when filming someone like Sophie Rain — you need gear that enhances performance and protects the main subject. In boxing, that “main subject” is your hands, so choose equipment that keeps them safe while letting you train at full power.
