I think Bare knuckle is great sometime glove make bad habits. But conditioning is very important.

[@nikhilgravemma345]

In competition you have to were gloves, MMA or boxing, so you should focus on hitting with the gloves (not talking about self-defense). But if you really want hard knuckles then you should hit downward in bucket of sand, and squeeze wet jute sack

[@knuckle-sandwichmma681]

On the heavybag boxing gloves are good for increasing power. Thats about it

[@_Cfocus]

@@knuckle-sandwichmma681 how does it increase power using gloves?

[@knuckle-sandwichmma681]

Focus because you have to ease in your punches bare knuckle on the heavybag to avoid an injury. With the padding of boxing gloves you can hit pretty much full force and you’re all good.

[@Truhandle91]

My issue is that whenever I go bareknuckle I start punching harder and harder because the increased speed excites me and then I'm a a point where my wrists can't take it anymore where it's usually the shoulder that absorbs the hooks and its easier to negate the impact of your own punch but bareknuckle can be dangerous especially for a power puncher

[@LightBender777]

After a while your skin gets tougher and thicker. Problem is some people when they take the gloves off can't punch correct anymore which is bad you should know both.

Bare knuckle is good for the hand conditioning, makes your skin tougher and forces you to squeeze your fist. Boxing gloves are good for power

[@tilted8707]

I still put time in training bareknuckle like the double-end ball bag and only about 40% force on the heavy bag

[@1810jeff]

Remember guys the knuckles especially for new fighters are delicate and complex so a break can put you out of commission for months so don't risk it slowly strengthen and condition them but don't do it without protection

[@cobes11]

It took me a full year to get my hands and wrists conditioned enough to be hitting my heavy bag just as hard bare knuckle as I do with gloves. At the beginning, I could hit the bag no more than 5 times at half power. Now I can do a full 100% workout for an hour. But it took a loooong time. I even had to do no punching at all for one month because my hands were so jacked up that I could barely hold things. But they healed stronger. Same thing with conditioning the shins. Mine are still pretty weak, but can do a few dozen times on my heavy bag before breaking instead of only a few. It takes a lot of patience

[@theprophet_-__cxvii__-_8693]

I just wouldn’t punch the bag that hard at that stage. Train about the same, just with much less power in your bareknuckle strikes.

[@lucusl2787]

Yeah i remember when i was 10 or 11 my dad got me a punching bag but it was one where it has a weight on the bottom and stands up. It wasnt a heavy bag either. But anyway that bag was really soft and it hurt my knuckles abd wrist so badly without even hitting it hard. Now im at the stage where i can punch heavy bags as hard as possible and it doesnt hurt

[@AlexCass1515]

To make sure no expert hurts himself i would recommend wrapping your hands the way BK boxers do. Just around the palms and wrists

[@melaniebick8280]

I'm using a product called "Bloody Knuckles" for healing. Love the stuff.

[@wowf0rl1f3]

I used to have that problem, my muddle knuckle is way further out than my other knuckles and regardless i still get that problem, i just heal fast and i found that taking a nice hot shower once a day and washing your hands regularly with vaseline and/ or triple antibiotic cream with gauze while you sleep (when most natural healing happens) and im good in a couple days. My suggestion if you dont have gloves or wraps is you just work on technique lightly and as the callouses build start bumping up the power slowly. Never be too eager to beat the shit out of the bag, it is a tool, and like any tool you learn to do things safely. Nobody had a good time hammering something the first time

[@casteltheghettomonk4392]

Cause your fingers were too close to each other when you were wrapping your hands . That made your middle knuckle to be further and all impact absorbed

[@ГеоргиСтоянов-ш4т]

I've never had this problem -I just like listening to shane explain things about punching.

[@lartisanpugiliste3152]

Going BK on heavy bags means having a good wrist conditionning, a very good straight line with fore arm and wrist. Striking vertically (power line) or 45° angle on jabs, cross and hook and avoid horizontal strikes (except the fact you can go horizontally for some body strikes). All or most guys really involved in BK will told that. It will avoid injury to wrist and knuckles. My humble tips . I work on heavy bag 90% BK and 10% only wraped and no need to go full power because Gloves give bad habits when you go BK. Gloves and BK striking are 2 different science as Boxing and BK.

When I was with trainers I usually wore gloves (different types of gloves) as well as shin and instep pads when bag and pad training. At home I did my bag work on an 80 lbs canvas heavy bag and rarely wore gloves or pads. There were differences to both but I felt that I benefited from training both ways. I'm old school and didn't have KZbin back then but would have loved to have had the benefit of your videos because you know your stuff.

[@mmaelite5334]

When i was a beginner i would punch the heavy bag at 100% bare knuckled but hurt my hands many times then i watched only a few of your vids and you taught me not to do that, nowadays my hands aren't in pain and im actually know in my gym for heavy hands so thank you so much and i will never unsubscribe and you may have saved the career i haven't started, so again thank you

[@egonza98]

Most of the people that get scabs and bleeding knuckles is due to improper technique. That's bring us your previous video about if your heavy bag spins when you hit is there something wrong with your technique. most of the vuts, scabs and bleeding occurs when you hit the bag and it spins with your punch, if you over commit your punch. If your hit it square and controlled you won't have problems. it's my opinion.

ime 9 times out of 10 if you are getting skinned knuckles, you are dropping your punch after you hit and creating extra friction on the knuckle. Straight forward and straight back and a slight down ward angle to make room for you follow up punch. I'm an outlier, but I'm very against training with gloves on unless your training for an event where you will be wearing those same sized gloves.

[@tabwheeler8175]

[@ThatCasualZach]

Targeting is essential. Have to keep your strikes tight and in range. Bareknuckle training daily 18yrs and that is a very rare occurrence because I only fire shots that I actually see, target, and adjust for. No careless hooks, no cuts. I get closer to tearing open the shin where the skin is thin than knuckles.

[@dreddy_g]

I can confirm that putting vaseline jelly on minor scratches helps with it healing. another thing I like to keep in my gear bag is a small tube of super glue (or contact cement). super glue will help with small cuts on your hands. just make sure you wash your hands before applying a small amount on the cut, and allow the glue to completely air dry.

[@theprophet_-__cxvii__-_8693]

Dreddy G. Don’t think you want superglue in your bloodstream tho. Stick with natural lotions, coconut oil, Vaseline, etc.

[@theprophet_-__cxvii__-_8693]

Also, it’s true, the more you hit the bag bare fisted, the tougher and more durable your skin gets.

Some people learn martial arts primarily to pick fights and beat people up for fun. Even though it's rare, it does happen. Please tell me your thoughts Shane.

[@Kerthil]

I think that hitting heavy bag without gloves is needed to learn how to punch correctly. Gloves alter the feeling, you just don't feel if it is safe for you. If you punch with full power without gloves with bad technique you will know, so it's good to practice lighter blows. This way you will know if you're doing it right and if you'll hurt yourself in some bad scenario outside the gym. It's good to start bare hands (or just wraps to avoid scratching) on the heavy bag with light blows and step by step going harder. When it start to hurt your fists and wrists - you should stop and correct technique, and also condition you're wrists with knuckle push-ups etc.

You need to know when youre not landing that middle knuckle on your punches. However you structure it, if youre training for self defense, you *have to* do work with unprotected hands. Those are the hands youre going to defend yourself with and you have to know what they will do. If you always wear gloves then youll never know about the small imperfections of your technique until you break your hand/s in a fight.
