what to do about knuckles

 

what to help the get stronger

 

1)what can i do to make them stronger

 

You really can't make them much stronger, but you can train correctly to ensure a good bone alignment when punching etc... I don't recommend much "conditioning" (aside good, flexy makiwara and knuckle pushups) due to the possible damage to joint area (trust me, callouses aren't a good sign).

 

 

2)what can i rub on them

 

Eh? Nothing. If the skin is flaking or is too dry, I'd recommend some good moisturizing lotion. You don't need any "dit da jow" or similar stuff. Just train.

 

 

3)what ex can i do to them

 

Just train your technique correctly, do knuckle pushups to easen finding the correct alignment (and to get used to the slight pain) and punch bag & makiwara.

 

 

4)what can i rub and where to buy them

 

You don't need anything special to "rub" to your knuckles. If you have skin problems, visit your doctor.

Good advice Jussi Häkkinen,

 

I'd just like to add that even if you choose to build up callouses on your knuckles(which i dont recommend) there are still areas of the human body that will peirce the skin even if its conditioned and the callouses wont really add much strength to your hand.

1) uniform

I wear a Century heavyweight gi 9 months of the year, and a lighter, Century middle weight gi during the summer..usually with a t-shirt instead of the top. I bought 4 of them years ago at the same time...cost about $40 each then, not sure now.

2)what gear do you use

The only gear we use is for full contact kumite...Shoreido brand. I bought it years ago, but I believe it was around $500 then for a complete set for two people.

3)where did you get it and price

OOPS..aready andswered this one. :roll:

4)sparring tips

Uhhhh...try to hit them before they hit you? :brow:

1)uniform

 

I recommend Kamikaze America (best price/quality -ratio I've seen in any do-gi)

2)what gear do you use

 

Shureido do-gi.

3)where did you get it and price

 

Local Shureido dealer, 150€.

4)sparring tips

 

Train hard. Sparring will become easier. Use both hands and both feet, don't favor just one side.
