Protective equipment for boxing and kickboxing
There are a variety of protective equipment that can be worn when boxing or kickboxing to protect the body from injury. These include head guards, mouth guards, chest guards, groin guards, shin guards and elbow guards. Some athletes also wear knee pads and wrist wraps to provide extra support and stability. All of this protective equipment should fit well and be put on correctly to provide the best possible protection.
The head guard - #vital
Head protection is very important in boxing or kickboxing to prevent injuries to the head. These combat sports can result in hard blows to the head, which can lead to concussions, skull fractures and other serious injuries. A well-designed head guard can help cushion the blow and thus reduce the risk of injury. Although wearing head protection does not completely eliminate the risk of injury, it does help to reduce the impact of blows to the head, allowing for safe and productive training.
The optimum size is based on the circumference of the head. You can find more information in the product descriptions under "Size chart for head protection".
Boxing headgear is available in a variety of materials that can be selected based on the needs and comfort of the athlete. The most common materials for a head protector are synthetic leather, leather, foam and rubber. Some high quality head protectors also use a combination of materials to provide both protection and comfort. The outer part of the headguard is almost always made of leather or synthetic leather, while the inside has soft foam padding to absorb shock and reduce stress on the head. It is important to choose a headguard that fits well with your head and your specific requirements to ensure the best possible protection and comfort.
Which mouthguard for boxing or kickboxing. How do I fit it?
When boxing or kickboxing, wearing a mouthguard is essential to protect the teeth, gums and mucous membranes in the mouth and jaw area from blows. Mouthguards come in a variety of styles and there is no one size fits all. There are some important points that should be considered in order to properly fit a mouthguard:
1. soak the mouthguard: Before fitting the mouthguard, soak it in hot water to make it soft and malleable.
2. let it cool down: Allow the mouthguard to cool slightly before putting it in your mouth to avoid burns.
3. insert: Insert the mouthguard into your mouth and place it on your teeth. Bite down firmly to shape the mouthguard into place.
4. cool down: take the mouthguard out of your mouth and let it cool down to keep its shape.
5. check fit: Check the fit of the mouthguard by putting it back in your mouth. If it does not fit comfortably or is loose, repeat the fitting process.
Make sure the mouthguard fits snugly against your gums to ensure adequate protection. If you can move your teeth or jaws or speak, the mouthguard may not be a good fit and you should adjust it further.
Groin guards for men and women - prevent serious injuries.
A groin guard is an important piece of protective equipment when boxing or kickboxing as it helps to prevent serious injuries to the genital area. Here are some tips when choosing and using a groin protector for men and women:
1. fit: choose a groin protector that fits your body well. It should fit snugly and comfortably, but without restricting your freedom of movement.
2. material: Pay attention to the material of the groin protector. Some common materials are plastic, rubber and leather. It is important to choose a durable and well-padded option to ensure adequate protection.
3. cleaning: Clean the groin protector after each use to avoid bacterial infections.
4. replace: Replace the groin protector regularly, especially if it shows signs of wear or damage.
5. wearing: Make sure you always wear the groin protector during exercise to minimise the risk of serious injury to the genital area.
6. combination with other protection: Combine the groin protector with other protective equipment such as a head guard, mouth guard and gloves to ensure complete protection.
7. adjustment: Regularly check the adjustment of the groin protector to ensure that it still fits comfortably and securely.
Foot bandages in kickboxing - a useful addition to your protection.
Foot bandages are a useful addition to your protection in kickboxing as they support the foot and ankle, reducing the risk of injury. Here are some reasons why foot wraps are important protective equipment in kickboxing:
1. ankle support: foot supports provide additional ankle support and can help prevent injuries such as sprains.
2. stabilisation of the foot: kickboxing often involves intense movements and twists that require a stable base. Foot supports can help stabilise the foot and thus reduce the risk of injury.
3. improved circulation: foot supports can also help improve circulation and reduce pain and discomfort associated with prolonged training.
4. comfort: foot supports can also provide an extra level of cushioning and comfort to reduce fatigue and make exercise more enjoyable.
5. injury prevention: Particularly when kickboxing with high kicks, targeting the foot and ankle can lead to numerous injuries. Foot supports minimise the risk of injuring the foot.
Overall, foot supports in kickboxing can help minimise the possibility of damage and injury to the foot and ankle.
