So I have a heavy bag now and have been discusiing gloves or no gloves with people.
I tried no gloves and damn...it does hurt right.
a boxer friend said never do it with no gloves , but other martial artists i have discussed with say to stick at it with no gloves as it will condition the hands.
Obviously I cant put too much power into techniques on the bag at the moment as my hands arent up to it.
so i was thinking of doing a mixture of rounds (endurance type work) with gloves and then some work without gloves. hoping in time I will be able to cast the gloves aside.
I tend not to use the bag like a boxer might, rather try to use it for as many kenpo techniques as I can.
any tips /ideas on bag work relevant to kenpo and especially the glove vs no no glove debate?
