Boxing equipment and boxing accessories

Accurate with boxing training equipment and boxing gear

Shark Fitness has been equipping boxers with boxing gloves, punching bags and boxing trainers for years, as well as everything they need to protect themselves for this intense sport, such as bandages and protective boxing clothing.

With the brands Everlast, Bruce Lee, Hatton, Hammer or Jordan, we rely on high-quality equipment that allows boxing training to hit or fend off every punch.

Anyone who thinks that boxing is only about hitting your opponent as hard as possible is very much mistaken. In addition to the full-body training component, this intense sport also has a strong mental component and thrives on mutual respect and adherence to clear rules.

Moreover, boxing enthusiasts are often not primarily concerned with competition. Training on the punching bag, boxing trainer or the punching claw alone is a great workout, promotes health and fitness and the training sessions can relieve accumulated stress in a targeted and focussed manner.

What boxing equipment do I need?

Boxing gloves and boxing bandages

It's obvious: good protection for knuckles, fingers and wrists is important in boxing. The type of boxing training you choose and the form in which you train is crucial.

Boxing gloves with finger openings, such as the Everlast Everstrike Training Gloves, do not restrict freedom of movement and are ideal for mixed martial arts and similar types of training.

For sparring and fitness sessions, boxing gloves offer the desired protection and support punching power.

Punching bag gloves are the right choice for punching bag training or training with punch pads. The padding in the boxing glove absorbs blows and protects the hands and wrist.

The bandaging in the boxing gloves additionally stabilises the wrists and knuckles and can prevent injuries. Boxing bandages or, alternatively, inner gloves also absorb sweat before it gets into the padding of the boxing gloves. This prevents them from starting to smell unpleasant.

Punching balls

Punching balls intensify boxing training and not only improve punching and kicking skills, but also specifically train the ability to react and move.

By training on the punching stand or the speedball, the so-called "boxing ball", you also develop a feeling for the correct punching distance.

Another advantage is, of course, that boxing training at home, especially with the Bruce Lee Free Punching Stand, is easy and space-saving.

Punching bags

The classic punching bag that is attached to the ceiling, the so-called "heavy bag", is very suitable for training punching power and improving punching and kicking technique. As a recommendation, the weight of a punching bag should be around 40-50% of the boxer's body weight.

You can also find ceiling hooks or wall mounts as accessories in our online shop to mount the punching bags safely at home or in the training hall.

Protective boxing clothing

When sparring or fighting with your boxing partner, you are exposed to attacks. Fast movements and evasive manoeuvres are part of boxing training. With the right protective equipment such as mouth and head protection and good stabilisation with shin guards, you can prevent injuries and stay in the ring for longer.
