I have some small training gloves, and hate them. They slip around. It's like the idea of buying motorcycle gloves for women.... they just make boy's sizes slightly shorter. They still feel and fit like oven mitts.

The wraps will keep your wrist where it needs to be, and will protect your knuckles. As a beginner, it will teach you more control. Think of it this way... do it right, cause injury to your opponent. Do it wrong, cause injury to yourself. Learn it right.

word.

form is more important than anything in the first month or so. build up a resistance to the type of training your doing, build up the muscle memory, then step it up.
If you start throwin punches like rocky on day one, you'll be hurtin so bad every time you put on a pair of mitts you'll wonder why you even bought that big pink paper weight.
