something went wrong with my hands and i havent been able to punch in gloves for months, its like the shape of the gloves doesnt work with my hands anymore so impact causes fracture-type pain on my fingers instead of the impact being on my knuckles.
i tried a load of different gloves and wrapping and without wrapping and sometimes i get just the right angle to the punch and its OK but 95% of the time its been total fail and i cant punch at all without feeling like my fingers are about to fracture. more in the right fingers but also the left.
i thought at one point that the problem was that my hands had weakened too much after no gym so i wasnt making a proper fist anymore, but the problem was still occuring in the following weeks when trying to make a strong fist and thinking i had it figured.
eventually i have found the ONLY thing that has worked and that is to use MMA gloves (instead of 16oz or whatever) but wrap my hands first and jam them in (otherwise my skin tears to shreds in them). so now i am very very happily back to PUNCHING again!!
that is my punching-related contribution
props on not giving up ^ ^
