I have an impression that some elements of 1v2 drill were involved, intentionally or otherwise, seeing how she was trying to keep the bag between her and the camera all the time. And yeah, insert obligatory "for the street" jokes :P
It depends on the work out or the type of bag you are hitting. If your hitting combos and your relying on knuckle techniques, you will quite possibly have an accident. Boxing gloves will keep you much safer if you have a wrist twisting accident or if you accidentally hyperextend your elbow. I know it sounds unlikely, but I used a fade once then hit a cross and accidentally hyperextend and hurt my elbow. If I had MMA gloves on, the impact would have been less shock absorbent and my elbow may have cracked. Accidents can happen, self defense isn't just fighting it's also about not getting hurt. The more you get hurt the more vunerable you are. If you put me in a cage or a boxing ring with someone who had a knee injury I will attack it immediately. If you put me in a boxing match with some one who has had a wrist, elbow or shoulder injury I'm going to find a way to make them use that arm. Guess what, you and anyone else are welcome to call me a honorless pussy for exposing a weakness like that. But I am a survivor, so I'm going to be the pussy that won and got out with my injury minimalized. So always where your boxing gloves. Except for in three situation and those situations are: if you are if you hitting a ground and pound bag, shadow boxing or just getting a little taste of the feeling of hitting a heavy bag. For example, I will attack found myself hitting a heavy bag for 45 minutes last night five minutes before the gym closes I hit the bag 4 times for 30 seconds after I had taken my gloves off. If you are hitting slow and practicing form it is ok. Just a little taste here and there. Stay safe fellow Ramsey Dewey viewers.
I absolutely love the stacked tire "bag" I'm going to make one. Could you please do a video on it I think it would be great for those who may have a few tires laying around but not access to good mma equipment. My sensei tells a story of someone he trained with traveling to SE Asia for the stereotypical traditional monk on a mountain training. He got there and they had him kick a tire for three weeks. He was disappointed to say the least. Until a few weeks after he entered a tournament and started sinking spin back kicks and hooks and crazy stuff with such power he tko' d his way through a tournament. Lol. This is second hand but the lessons is multi fold and universal so I thought I'd share why I was so excited about that setup. I'd type more but it's literally time to train.
Great commentaries, as always! If I may add a few more points to this, I'd like to say that most boxing gloves are heavier than most mma gloves, not by much, but after 40-50min of training it can make some difference! Also, an mma coach said to me once that he and his students train jiujitsu with boxing gloves, he said that if you could apply a kimura with a large glove, it would be much easier to do so with a smaller glove, it makes sense to me, but I don't know how much this pays off...
I agree, boxing gloves are important for safety in training. I have been training in Krav Maga where we train for real-life combat with no rules or equipment. Yet we still use gloves for heavy bag work, defense drills, and sparring. I do practice bare-hand fighting as well, but typically on softer targets like a tombstone pad or kick pads. You're right, we want to train as closely to the application we intend to use our skills for, but also without injuring ourselves or our partners. Now get out there and ride a train!
What do you think of using those "hybrid" gloves on the bag? I've seen some that seem to have padding similar to boxing gloves on the striking surface, but still have the opened palm design of an MMA glove. I always favor open palm gloves because 1) my palms sweat a lot, so closed gloves always get wetter, and 2) I have larger hands and long fingers, so open gloves tend to have less comfort and fit issues.
You mean vale tudo gloves? Those are the only ones I know that fit the description. I got a pair and I bever use them because they feel really awkward to me lol but everyones diferent
@@edrichlouw1790 you are right, I just looked them up and they seem really good, the ones I was talking about make it really hard to close your hands and are just awful IMO
IMO they're exactly right for MMA practice. The fingerless gloves are too thin for constant training and the 16oz boxing gloves are too big for grappling practice. I have an old pair of boxing gloves I still use for heavy bag as they're more protective, but I always wear hybrids for MMA training i.e. with other people. I also used to wear 16oz gloves for striking and then just take them off work on takedowns and BJJ - but the hybrids allow you to train fluidly between striking and grappling.
I use boxing gloves for the most part. Always protect your hands. I only use my MMA gloves when I'm training kicks, clinch, or the ground. Sometimes I do use my MMA gloves for bag work but mainly to strengthen my wrists and to make sure I'm connecting with my target correctly. Always remember to "protect yourself at all times." Love the content, Ramsey! I watch every video!
Had massive wrist pain using no gloves and light gloves. Now I've gotten wrist straps and 14oz gloves and I feel so much better. You've saved my wrists haha
Usually you talk with your sparring partner before you start what you want to do and what not. Then you choose your equipment accordingly. I personally do sparring most times with boxing gloves. In MMA training you will do rolling and ground techniques anyways, so no need to take higher risk of injuries in sparring session without the bigger gloves.
Not necessarily. Most of your sparring should be controlled, light contact, and technical. If you are punching your training partners hard enough to hurt your hands, you’re going WAY too hard to be sustainable. More padding on the gloves gives a larger margin of error for pulling the punches- but no matter what you have on your hands, you should be pulling your punches.
I sparred in boxing gloves once, because we had no mma gloves. I can't tell you how many submissions I missed out on because of the sheer bulk of those things.
I think its great to do some heavy bag punching with MMA gloves or even bareknuckle to condition your hands but do it for five minuts maximum. When you train resistance or technique is better to do it with adecuate protection to avoid injuries since you'll be hitting the bag during more time.
Follow up point to that. If you do take an injury due to training without gloves, or only using the 4oz gloves, then you need to take time off of the bag/pad work to let your hands heal. This is lost training time. Sure, there are other things you can still do, but I don't want to sacrifice training time because I wanted to make my training "more realistic." Heavy gloves are more realistic than not training due to an injury.
People need lots more time and work with mma gloves 🧤 reason for the range , speed , and defense is a good enough difference/ you don’t wanna go out and feel out of place when you switch to the much smaller glove 🧤
I Just use 4oz grappling gloves when I heavy bag. But that's also because I tape up my fingers heavily, tape up my knuckles and then wrap them and then put the gloves on. I'm no heavy weight striker so the amount of force my knuckles experience haven't been a problem when I do bag workouts
Great advice. What's you opinion of and how to integrate dedicated MMA bag gloves and thinner boxing bag gloves into heavy bag training. I used them for part of sessions with the heavy bag when training this summer at your gym, though I still would switch to thick boxing gloves either during the session or on the following day when training. I have been back and forth on this since I train traditional kung fu as well as MMA and Sanshou. Do you think its better to start off striking with the MMA bag gloves/thinner boxing bag gloves and then switch out thicker boxing/bag gloves half through or as fatigue sets ,or the reverse? Hope all is going well with training in Shanghai!
these are the MMA bag gloves ones I use: images.app.goo.gl/XjtmimhfQZfzkerW8 and these are the type of boxing bag gloves I was referring to: images.app.goo.gl/dutAuB7bFZpE215x6
I still train with mma gloves, they're easier to carry around, i get tons of injuries for a few months but i guess my fingers got used to it and stopped being injured. My mma gloves however is damaged beyond recognition every time i punch a piece of it falls off
Seems pretty logical that you would want to use 16 oz boxing gloves over small 4 oz mma gloves for training for the purpose of being quicker with 4oz gloves on.
Because boxing gloves are so BIG, I use UFC Neoprene Bag Gloves for hard MMA sparring or striking sparring because they seem to be in that middle ground where they protect the hand and the thumb is movable so you can grab with them, but they are not as big as a boxing glove.
i love your videos, BUT as a pro mma fighter, im gonna have to disagree with this one. Ive always hit the pads/bag with mma gloves...yes at first, it can be a little brutal, but you have condition your hands to get used to it. ESPECIALLY if you compete in mma,BECAUSE thats what you will fight in,not boxing gloves. so your hands must be accustomed to that. In the gym I used to go to, the were very predomintly muay tai people, and they always made fun of me for wearing mma gloves while hitting pads, but they dont realize what it takes to be an mma fighter....NOW if your just doing mma for fun, then boxing gloves might be the better option. Ramsey love your videos, learn alot each video, THANK YOU!
This is the first time I've disagreed a little, but I'm also hitting this from a weird direction. I don't use heavy bags at all and do everything either bare handed or with UFC gloves as loose as possible (specifically not supporting the wrists and no wrap at all). I do this to train my entire hand/wrist/forearm system to handle sharp forces from unexpected angles. I might not be striking as hard as some, but I'm using our natural primate brachiation reflex (the part where they shove their hands forward into brush and through branches), which is very loose but has a heck of a snap at the end...kind of like swinging a ball at the end of a rope. I'm definitely hitting hard enough to make liver shots, and strikes to the jaw/neck/side of head and to the arms/legs work though. I went through a LOT of "You're doing it wrong" during this process but I think the whole "lining up the bones in the hand with the forearm and punching with the knuckles" bit is something we made up and while it generally works with gloves, we're designed to have the knuckles fail to the wrist, the wrist to the forearm, and the forearm to the shoulder and when you don't isolate the system you are both more effective and far more resilient to damage (at least I am, the loose gloves just let me get away with being sloppy but make some ground interactions awkward) I may be wrong, but I do think making sure we've nailed our natural primate movements BEFORE adding in new things puts us in a better place as coaches and fighters. We've got a lot to learn from our closest relatives about movement, and we're not magically degenerate primates. We can't do everything a gibbon can do, but we can do a lot! (Also, super fun)
But Ramsey Dewey, wouldn’t that just build up the knuckles and make them denser ? Genuine question. Can you also do a video on iron body training. I am really interested in what you would say on that topic.
Muhammad Ali thought that getting punched in the head would make his skull and brain stronger, and he'd be able to take punches better. He, therefore, tried to get punched a lot in the head during sparing. Guess what happened to him later in life.
95 percent of my bag work over the last 11 years has been with bare knuckles and no wraps. I dont know if its just my genetics or im not hitting the bag often enough but other then my knuckles getting skinned often and having rough looking hands, so far their ok.
What about the hybrid style mma gloves? Aslo you said fingerless mma gloves so if I use ones with fingers can I use them? Someone help me out here please.
hey ho... just started watching some of your stuff and i like it and am most impressed... as the video was quite old, i wanted to ask if you have some updates on systema... i found the concepts quite interesting ( stuff to read on the internet )... and also a wing chun master i meet once told me, that most of the people he meet while trying other stuff ikognito where quite good in all sorts of aspects of street fighting. I only do martial arts for fun and exercise - but i am maybe moving and then have the possibility to try it. Just interested in your opinion
Question: You've have been living in China for many years, Is traditional Chinese martial arts can still be effective in a fight or self-defense? If do then which are they can still be used?
Ramsey as a proponent for bare knuckle mma and boxing how would you propose we spar and train for that should we use wraps and mma gloves so that we don’t break our skin and possibly bones?
Question, How do you deal with stress/trauma after a fight? Had a fight a couple of months ago. It was eye opening of course, but still...after the fight, i felt anxious, scared, had a hard time sleeping, and to make it worse, it was hard to focus at school. How do you handle the trauma/stress?
Well that depends. Are we talking about a combat sport competition, or did you get attacked at school? Both can leave you with PTSD- but dealing with the aftermath is going to be quite different.
I have a question. What about palm boxing? What I mean is throwing palm strikes and cup slaps instead of punches, and training to fight such that you never throw punches, you only throw open handed attacks in a fight whether in or out of the ring. The reason I ask is because everyone says, “don’t throw punches in a fight. You will mess up your hands. Throw palm strikes instead, they do roughly the same kind of damage and they won’t mess up your hands.” And yet just about everyone and their monkey’s uncle throws punches in a fight in or out of the ring. Everyone from the experts who say, “don’t throw punches in a fight,” to completely untrained people who have never fought before curl their hands up into fists and swing them at their opponents. The punch is the single most commonly used technique on the planet in all of martial arts. Bear in mind I am not speaking in absolutes, but in generalities. I know that there are people out there who are an exception to what I’m saying. I’m asking about the statistical norm. If it’s bad for us to throw punches, why do we do it? Why isn’t there a general shift towards palm strikes?
the Chance of eye pokes is higher with open hands. And breaking a Finger is also possible. And its realy Bad if you slap some one on the ear.... Broken eardrums. But a fist hurt much more, you have a longer reach and more technics you can do. But someone who is not trained will break his hands. The Palm for self devense and beginners, The fist for sport and trained fighters.
In MMA are strikes to the feet and hands considered 'legal'? e.g. it's hard to move around if your foot is damaged or hard to form a fist if a finger is dislocated...
The fouls for striking in MMA include: the back of the head, back of the neck, spine, groin. Unified rules also include the following as fouls: Kicking or kneeing the head of a downed opponent. Stomping a downed opponent. Everything else is fair game as far as striking is concerned.
Ramsey plz tell us what should be our whole getup (including underwear to shoes) while running outside or treadmill and how much shld we eat before or after and when. Also when shld we go for nature's call, before after/morning or night. Plz tell us every thing which is related to running to stay healthy. Just don't tell us to walk every day for 30 mins while breathing 😂
So, if i only use the Heavybag at home for some "light" training just to get rid of all stress and doing nothing really competetive related and when trainig only 2 days a week i can use MMA gloves on the bag, right? cuz for me the boxing gloves feel a bit clunky sometimes :/ - greetings from germany
Ramsey- I watch a lot of your bag work and it looks like your focus is on footwork and technique and it looks like it really reduces how much work you do. I always thought that bag work was a workout- that I should throw as many punches and kicks as possible as hard as possible to get the best possible workout- then I can do things like footwork and set ups some other time. Furthermore, those kinds of drills might be easier with a partner or in open space -no? How much of your bag work would you say is skill training and how much would you say is cardio/strength training?
Hello Ramsey, love it channel. Could u make a video on a proper headgear for MMA sparring? Also I have a question on wearing elbow and knee pads for MMA sparring. Since elbows and knee are allowed it would make sense that you should practice as closely to the sport of MMA as you can, but safely ofc . Do you recommend it and if yes what brand would be good?
Quick question coach! I recently joined college and there's no opportunity for joining an MMA club. I can easily do my karate training with kata and basic movements, however how do I practice MMA alone?
I have sparred hard 3 times only in my life and got hit in the head a few times and recieved 15-21 punches in total punches in which 8-10 of them were hard but didn't cause any damage as I sparred with beginners and practitionrers who were but never got knocked out due to the jaw and also took 2-3 months break between those 3 sparring sessions i did only for 2mins each will I get cte later in life? I started sparring at age 19 only.
@@RamseyDewey no the doctor also said that i don't have any adverse effects and I will be fine but still what is your opinion will i recieve or not? Please sir reply.
Hey Ramsey, Chris here. Do you think boxing is a good substitue for mma during recovery from leg injury? I am not speaking about fighting on a wheelchair but giving mostly healed leg additional recovery time without risking lowkick, some kind of leg by leg block while wrestling or any sort of twist during groundgame being takedown.
I would figure it would be hard to stand up with a leg injury.Footwork is an internal part of boxing people (whom aren't boxers BTW) seem to not understand.
@@KWillo I get that, but I meant if your leg is 'almost' fine. (A long period in which some really hard movement generate pain, however duing normal activities like running or keeping stance is perfectly OK.)
I am considering my own case right now. As I don't feel like giving myself a break for 6 months or so, but at the same time from my own expierience I'd prefer to stay a bit safer.
Cool vídeo. I just did 15 rounds in mma gloves, on the heavy bag. I was wondering if my punches were wrong, cause my finger got all peeled. Apparently it's normal
Hello! Just subscribed your channel is great. I have one question for you. Im thinking in starting to make boxing but im concern about the risks of brain concussions during sparring at the gym. I dont want to compete or take it to serious, should i be concern about? Thanks!
hi Ramsey I love your videos and I have a question, I can only train twice a week and have to bend it around schoolwork projects ect, so my question is, am I better off going easy and being as close to 100% for those two sessions or going all out and not care about muscle pain the rest of the week? also if I can squeeze in a second question, do you have any familiarity with atemi jujitsu? thank you, love the vids, now I'll wait till tomorrow and get out there and train.thank
Dewey im 15 years old now I started of with Karate when I was 14 then switched to MMA. I've been doing MMA for a year now. And my progression was rapid fast, in less than a year I became the best student at the GYM, better than peple traing for longer times than me. do you think I have potential to be a great fighter, and if so should I take It seariously. Because im equally talented at soccer.
You're 15 do everything you can. Decide only at the last possible moment and keep your options open. If you can be professional at mma or soccer you can do anything in the world. Oh and learn to dance it'll make you a better human.
Hey Ramsey I just underwent surgery recently and I started my training a few days ago and I face difficulty trying to lift the weight I could lift before which is understandable but should I lift the same amount of weight that I could lift with few reps or light weight with more number of reps
The knuckles are not my enemy anymore after a year heavy bag. I hit quick and hard. But i stopped since 2 months. Because my both wrists and elbows hurt so much the last five months that it doesnt feel good to still exercise also too much pain. The docter says it is impact pain i have to stop hitting the bags. What do you think? Also i am 55 years maybe to old for heavy bag? Any ideas how to continue?
Change your punching technique. “Impure punching” is technically analogous to throwing a fastball- both are terrible for your elbow joints. Switch to “pure punching” (analogous to throwing a curve ball) which is a much more ergonomically correct way to move the arms and won’t give you tennis elbow. th-cam.com/video/UD-JQnp9Xwg/w-d-xo.html
hey Ramsey, whats your opinion on training to use rules to your advantage? for example im thinking of having an MMA fight soon, but for the amature fights they normally wear shin guard, so i was thinking of not spending to much time practicing my checking as i am happy to take leg kicks with shin guards as id rather us that opportunity to punch or land a takdown. (somthing i would not accept so willingly without guards) do you think this is a dishonhest way of competing and will hurt me in the longrun? obviously their are many ways to use rules to your advantage but this was just 1 example.
You don’t have to check leg kicks, but you shouldn’t be taking them. Learn how to catch them so you can more effectively take your opponent down off his kicks. If leg locks are allowed under the rule set you’re using, and your well versed in heel hooks, shin guards are going to make those A LOT more effective. Use every advantage you have. And when the rules change, learn how to exploit them to the fullest.
@@RamseyDewey thanks, yeah its a sport after all. i guess im just trying to figure out wheres the line beetween having a smart game plan and being the soccer player crying contact when noone touched him.
Ash h here’s the difference: in a lot of sports, like soccer, you can gain an advantage by playing the part of the victim. Fighting doesn’t work that way. The only way to win is to be the aggressor.
I have a question about my gym. I’m not allowed to use equipment at my gym, unless I buy it through my gym. They don’t have a brand specific to buy, so I’m wondering what’s the reason.
Hey Remsey, I have a question. I recently joined a judo gym/dojo and I have one problem. The group is very small there are two trainers and only 4 other trainees. I like the way they train, location, the techniques are all legit but it's just such a small gym. Should I stay there or look for a gym where I can find greater competition?
Saloin Hi, as a Judo Coach , i allowe me to answer... you Are just starting judo? What for do you train? Are there any more dojos in your town? The first time you need to learn "dancing"/ how to move in a fight and to keep Training. There is a Gym, were you like and trust the people and just have fun very important, you will def learn how to fight. If you out weight the others with 30 pounds, Are more advanced and want to compete on a higher level, than sonner or later you need a big gym with different opponents in your weight class. But high level sport is full of assholes and coaches who dont give a shit about you if you cant win gold.
Where Are you from? Here in germany nobody earns money with judo. there for, nobody cares if you dont pay for the second school. Every body is just happy with a fighter more on the mat
@@momoswandelndesschloss4047 I have former experience in Martial Arts but just striking so I moved to judo a month ago. I train to stay healthy mentally and physically and of course fun. I live in Vienna so there are more gym in a 30 minute radius than I can name. I'm still not sure whether I want to change or not but if you as a Coach think a small group of people are enough and I'm not missing any aspects (which I'm sure I do.) Then staying would be the logical way.
Saloin 😅 so weit can talk in german? Ja wenn du dich wohl fühlst, mit der Gruppe klar kommst, den Trainern Wettkämpfe nicht fremd sind und du am Ende zufrieden bist, dann machts keinen Unterschied. Ich selbst trainier einen provinzverein, und wir sind quasi regelmäßig gezwungen, unsere talentierten Jungs und mädels an die größeren Leistungsstützpunkte abzugeben, wenn sie Leistungssport betreiben wollen, da sie im Training einfach die verschiedenen Partner in ihrer Qualitätsstufe brauchen, um mithalten zu können. Da war ich selbst, man lernt viel, aber das ist einfach nur ein Sportaspekt um die letzten 5% rauszuholen. Aber ich frag mich grad schon, wieso eine Gruppe in Wien so winzig ist. Wenn die Leute bzw Trainer selbst sehr wenig oder nie auf Wettkämpfen waren, dann wird das Niveau leider sehr schwach sein. Das ist beim judo ein echtes Qualitätsmerkmal! Wir im Judo haben jede Menge Schwarzgurte die vom echten Kämpfen leider keine Ahnung haben, auch wenn sie gute Menschen sind, keinen Blödsinn erzählen und echten Spaß dran haben. Randori ist schon das A und O in unserer Kunst. Aber ich versteh auch, wenn man drauf pfeift und sich einfach einen netten Abend machen möchte... Ok ich hoffe ich hab dich jetzt nicht verwirrt
I see dudes in the gym using cheap-ass MMA gloves that have no idea what they're doing. Please, get a solid pair of boxing gloves; Cleto Reyes; Winning, great gloves that are expensive but worth the money if you're going to be battering your hands several times a week. Do the research and find the best gloves you can afford, and stay away from Neverlast! Your hands will thank you.
Yea I brought mma gloves to muay thai practice, and ended up getting the skin torn off all over my knuckles. So as punshiment for being so "smart", they made me do a fuck ton of knuckle push ups until I said "I will never make stupid decisions" 1000×😂😂😂😂 . Maaaaaan was that a bitch; learn from this mistake please.
Good points. I still advice people to use as light boxing gloves as possible. Bag gloves that are about the size of a mma glove are great for bags and mitts. 10-12 oz AIBA gloves are far better than regular 16 oz gloves, which are just useless in every way. The fist will get stronger in time, as long as you don’t damage it. Going full force is not needed every time.
That's your view of her, A Cute Little Girl?! All I saw was a monster in training! She's going to go around the world wrecking everyone before her! *Shudders in Horror*
Of course this is bull.... Tell this to the okinawan karate guys. There are mma training gloves which have more protection, but uinlike the boxing gloves you learn to tighten your fists. In a boxing glove the hands are not really making a solid fist.. as you should know.
Protect your self at all times even against the heavy bag. Time is his Ally and your knuckles his enemy.
Ramsey, wanted to say thank you for all the advice you give for free here. This is a solid question which a lot of newcomers get confused by.
Love you Ramsey. You have a compelling voice.
My sparring partners always try to kill me when they put on mma gloves but go super gentle in boxing gloves lol
They’re arseholes then
Let them know, or find another partner.
Put a little bit more sting in your body shots so they have that nice ache when they sit up out of bed the next morning.
I just go as hard on them as they go on me, he stopped going that hard after getting roundhouse kicked in the head at full strength yesterday lol.
Have u switched gyms?? Your partners should never try to kill you. I have left gyms due to that mentality.
The room at 3:10 tripped my brain for a moment trying to figure out which bags were actually there.
2:32 learning footwork early! Great!
I have an impression that some elements of 1v2 drill were involved, intentionally or otherwise, seeing how she was trying to keep the bag between her and the camera all the time.
And yeah, insert obligatory "for the street" jokes :P
Thank you sooooo much i was looking for an explanation for my finger wounds!!!!!

It's nice to see a short and sweet video from you to watch right before training. Thanks again coach. Love from York Muay Thai in Toronto :)
It depends on the work out or the type of bag you are hitting. If your hitting combos and your relying on knuckle techniques, you will quite possibly have an accident.

I know it sounds unlikely, but I used a fade once then hit a cross and accidentally hyperextend and hurt my elbow. If I had MMA gloves on, the impact would have been less shock absorbent and my elbow may have cracked. Accidents can happen, self defense isn't just fighting it's also about not getting hurt. The more you get hurt the more vunerable you are. If you put me in a cage or a boxing ring with someone who had a knee injury I will attack it immediately. If you put me in a boxing match with some one who has had a wrist, elbow or shoulder injury I'm going to find a way to make them use that arm. Guess what, you and anyone else are welcome to call me a honorless pussy for exposing a weakness like that.

If you are hitting slow and practicing form it is ok. Just a little taste here and there. Stay safe fellow Ramsey Dewey viewers.

Great commentaries, as always! If I may add a few more points to this, I'd like to say that most boxing gloves are heavier than most mma gloves, not by much, but after 40-50min of training it can make some difference! Also, an mma coach said to me once that he and his students train jiujitsu with boxing gloves, he said that if you could apply a kimura with a large glove, it would be much easier to do so with a smaller glove, it makes sense to me, but I don't know how much this pays off...
I agree, boxing gloves are important for safety in training. I have been training in Krav Maga where we train for real-life combat with no rules or equipment. Yet we still use gloves for heavy bag work, defense drills, and sparring. I do practice bare-hand fighting as well, but typically on softer targets like a tombstone pad or kick pads. You're right, we want to train as closely to the application we intend to use our skills for, but also without injuring ourselves or our partners. Now get out there and ride a train!

What do you think of using those "hybrid" gloves on the bag? I've seen some that seem to have padding similar to boxing gloves on the striking surface, but still have the opened palm design of an MMA glove. I always favor open palm gloves because 1) my palms sweat a lot, so closed gloves always get wetter, and 2) I have larger hands and long fingers, so open gloves tend to have less comfort and fit issues.
You mean vale tudo gloves? Those are the only ones I know that fit the description. I got a pair and I bever use them because they feel really awkward to me lol but everyones diferent
Big Dibber nick what he’s describing seems like what get sold as hybrid gloves or at least that’s what usually is written on the package.
@@edrichlouw1790 you are right, I just looked them up and they seem really good, the ones I was talking about make it really hard to close your hands and are just awful IMO
IMO they're exactly right for MMA practice.
The fingerless gloves are too thin for constant training and the 16oz boxing gloves are too big for grappling practice.
I have an old pair of boxing gloves I still use for heavy bag as they're more protective, but I always wear hybrids for MMA training i.e. with other people.
I also used to wear 16oz gloves for striking and then just take them off work on takedowns and BJJ - but the hybrids allow you to train fluidly between striking and grappling.
Damn..you could record audiobooks with that voice and delivery. Good content. :)
Thanks, I found the answer I was looking for.
Ramsey is a Vulcan
I use boxing gloves for the most part. Always protect your hands. I only use my MMA gloves when I'm training kicks, clinch, or the ground. Sometimes I do use my MMA gloves for bag work but mainly to strengthen my wrists and to make sure I'm connecting with my target correctly. Always remember to "protect yourself at all times."
Love the content, Ramsey! I watch every video!
thank you for the advice
Had massive wrist pain using no gloves and light gloves. Now I've gotten wrist straps and 14oz gloves and I feel so much better. You've saved my wrists haha
You should be a voice actor
Simple answer: yes, but not only
Does the same apply to sparring for MMA? Especially considering that MMA gloves allow a lot more openings in your guard than boxing gloves do
You won't be landing as many shots in sparring so I guess it's fine
I have the exact same question, I guess even the MMA sparring gloves have less padding than a 16oz glove
Usually you talk with your sparring partner before you start what you want to do and what not. Then you choose your equipment accordingly.
I personally do sparring most times with boxing gloves. In MMA training you will do rolling and ground techniques anyways, so no need to take higher risk of injuries in sparring session without the bigger gloves.
Not necessarily. Most of your sparring should be controlled, light contact, and technical. If you are punching your training partners hard enough to hurt your hands, you’re going WAY too hard to be sustainable. More padding on the gloves gives a larger margin of error for pulling the punches- but no matter what you have on your hands, you should be pulling your punches.
@@RamseyDewey makes perfect sense. Thank you
I sparred in boxing gloves once, because we had no mma gloves. I can't tell you how many submissions I missed out on because of the sheer bulk of those things.
Thanks Ramsey!
Ramsey, don't lie to us, we have seen those Shaw Bros movies! Just use a giant wok full of hot gravel and a stone wall.
I think its great to do some heavy bag punching with MMA gloves or even bareknuckle to condition your hands but do it for five minuts maximum. When you train resistance or technique is better to do it with adecuate protection to avoid injuries since you'll be hitting the bag during more time.
I'd also recommend pads in the hands like you said but also InStep and shin pads for the feet
Voice sounds soothing asf
I agree. Repetitive damage like this can also extend to ligament and tendon damage and cause a ripple on effect. Train smart.
Whether right or wrong, we generally used 8oz gloves on heavybags& 10 or 12oz in the ring...this was long ago,before MMA, just boxing.
Follow up point to that.
If you do take an injury due to training without gloves, or only using the 4oz gloves, then you need to take time off of the bag/pad work to let your hands heal. This is lost training time. Sure, there are other things you can still do, but I don't want to sacrifice training time because I wanted to make my training "more realistic." Heavy gloves are more realistic than not training due to an injury.
First Comment. Good afternoon from Pennsylvania, Ramsey.
Subbed nice videos mate
People need lots more time and work with mma gloves 🧤 reason for the range , speed , and defense is a good enough difference/ you don’t wanna go out and feel out of place when you switch to the much smaller glove 🧤
I Just use 4oz grappling gloves when I heavy bag. But that's also because I tape up my fingers heavily, tape up my knuckles and then wrap them and then put the gloves on. I'm no heavy weight striker so the amount of force my knuckles experience haven't been a problem when I do bag workouts
I may be wrong! I do not know a whole lot about pre-Victorian boxing, but I read that a London Prize Ring Rules boxer used gloves for training.
Great advice. What's you opinion of and how to integrate dedicated MMA bag gloves and thinner boxing bag gloves into heavy bag training. I used them for part of sessions with the heavy bag when training this summer at your gym, though I still would switch to thick boxing gloves either during the session or on the following day when training. I have been back and forth on this since I train traditional kung fu as well as MMA and Sanshou. Do you think its better to start off striking with the MMA bag gloves/thinner boxing bag gloves and then switch out thicker boxing/bag gloves half through or as fatigue sets ,or the reverse? Hope all is going well with training in Shanghai!
these are the MMA bag gloves ones I use: images.app.goo.gl/XjtmimhfQZfzkerW8 and these are the type of boxing bag gloves I was referring to: images.app.goo.gl/dutAuB7bFZpE215x6
I still train with mma gloves, they're easier to carry around, i get tons of injuries for a few months but i guess my fingers got used to it and stopped being injured. My mma gloves however is damaged beyond recognition every time i punch a piece of it falls off
Seems pretty logical that you would want to use 16 oz boxing gloves over small 4 oz mma gloves for training for the purpose of being quicker with 4oz gloves on.
And also so you don't damage your hands
Respect
Some fighter switch to Mma glove in the last week before their fight.
There are gloves made for the bag, I never had problem with them and it feels less "bouncy" when you hit the bag.
Because boxing gloves are so BIG, I use UFC Neoprene Bag Gloves for hard MMA sparring or striking sparring because they seem to be in that middle ground where they protect the hand and the thumb is movable so you can grab with them, but they are not as big as a boxing glove.
Usually i use gloves until my shoulders are tired, then continue using hand wraps only as finisher
i love your videos, BUT as a pro mma fighter, im gonna have to disagree with this one. Ive always hit the pads/bag with mma gloves...yes at first, it can be a little brutal, but you have condition your hands to get used to it. ESPECIALLY if you compete in mma,BECAUSE thats what you will fight in,not boxing gloves. so your hands must be accustomed to that.
In the gym I used to go to, the were very predomintly muay tai people, and they always made fun of me for wearing mma gloves while hitting pads, but they dont realize what it takes to be an mma fighter....NOW if your just doing mma for fun, then boxing gloves might be the better option.
Ramsey love your videos, learn alot each video, THANK YOU!
The meat head in me watches you hit the bag like I could take this nerd . The martial artist in me is like “lol”
This is the first time I've disagreed a little, but I'm also hitting this from a weird direction.
I don't use heavy bags at all and do everything either bare handed or with UFC gloves as loose as possible (specifically not supporting the wrists and no wrap at all). I do this to train my entire hand/wrist/forearm system to handle sharp forces from unexpected angles.
I might not be striking as hard as some, but I'm using our natural primate brachiation reflex (the part where they shove their hands forward into brush and through branches), which is very loose but has a heck of a snap at the end...kind of like swinging a ball at the end of a rope. I'm definitely hitting hard enough to make liver shots, and strikes to the jaw/neck/side of head and to the arms/legs work though.
I went through a LOT of "You're doing it wrong" during this process but I think the whole "lining up the bones in the hand with the forearm and punching with the knuckles" bit is something we made up and while it generally works with gloves, we're designed to have the knuckles fail to the wrist, the wrist to the forearm, and the forearm to the shoulder and when you don't isolate the system you are both more effective and far more resilient to damage (at least I am, the loose gloves just let me get away with being sloppy but make some ground interactions awkward)
I may be wrong, but I do think making sure we've nailed our natural primate movements BEFORE adding in new things puts us in a better place as coaches and fighters. We've got a lot to learn from our closest relatives about movement, and we're not magically degenerate primates. We can't do everything a gibbon can do, but we can do a lot!
(Also, super fun)
Hey, how’s that going for ya?
Great
In essence they are protecting there hands just like in muay thai they use shinnguards
love from saudi.
Pls do how to choose a martial art
But Ramsey Dewey, wouldn’t that just build up the knuckles and make them denser ? Genuine question. Can you also do a video on iron body training. I am really interested in what you would say on that topic.
Muhammad Ali thought that getting punched in the head would make his skull and brain stronger, and he'd be able to take punches better. He, therefore, tried to get punched a lot in the head during sparing. Guess what happened to him later in life.
Kind of hate watching these videos after coming home from the gym. I dont want to train again yet i want to shower and rest. 😥
95 percent of my bag work over the last 11 years has been with bare knuckles and no wraps. I dont know if its just my genetics or im not hitting the bag often enough but other then my knuckles getting skinned often and having rough looking hands, so far their ok.
What about the hybrid style mma gloves? Aslo you said fingerless mma gloves so if I use ones with fingers can I use them? Someone help me out here please.
MMA gloves are fingerless.
Can you do a video on hand wraps? My knuckles don't hurt but my wrists do
My advice is put less wrap on your knuckles and more on your wrist
hey ho... just started watching some of your stuff and i like it and am most impressed... as the video was quite old, i wanted to ask if you have some updates on systema... i found the concepts quite interesting ( stuff to read on the internet )... and also a wing chun master i meet once told me, that most of the people he meet while trying other stuff ikognito where quite good in all sorts of aspects of street fighting. I only do martial arts for fun and exercise - but i am maybe moving and then have the possibility to try it. Just interested in your opinion
Question: You've have been living in China for many years, Is traditional Chinese martial arts can still be effective in a fight or self-defense? If do then which are they can still be used?
Ramsey as a proponent for bare knuckle mma and boxing how would you propose we spar and train for that should we use wraps and mma gloves so that we don’t break our skin and possibly bones?
Question,
How do you deal with stress/trauma after a fight?
Had a fight a couple of months ago. It was eye opening of course, but still...after the fight, i felt anxious, scared, had a hard time sleeping, and to make it worse, it was hard to focus at school.
How do you handle the trauma/stress?
Well that depends. Are we talking about a combat sport competition, or did you get attacked at school? Both can leave you with PTSD- but dealing with the aftermath is going to be quite different.
@@RamseyDewey Just a kickboxing match. School's actually really peaceful. Never had a fight before, this match was the first.
I have a question. What about palm boxing? What I mean is throwing palm strikes and cup slaps instead of punches, and training to fight such that you never throw punches, you only throw open handed attacks in a fight whether in or out of the ring.
The reason I ask is because everyone says, “don’t throw punches in a fight. You will mess up your hands. Throw palm strikes instead, they do roughly the same kind of damage and they won’t mess up your hands.” And yet just about everyone and their monkey’s uncle throws punches in a fight in or out of the ring. Everyone from the experts who say, “don’t throw punches in a fight,” to completely untrained people who have never fought before curl their hands up into fists and swing them at their opponents. The punch is the single most commonly used technique on the planet in all of martial arts.
Bear in mind I am not speaking in absolutes, but in generalities. I know that there are people out there who are an exception to what I’m saying. I’m asking about the statistical norm. If it’s bad for us to throw punches, why do we do it? Why isn’t there a general shift towards palm strikes?
the Chance of eye pokes is higher with open hands. And breaking a Finger is also possible. And its realy Bad if you slap some one on the ear.... Broken eardrums. But a fist hurt much more, you have a longer reach and more technics you can do. But someone who is not trained will break his hands. The Palm for self devense and beginners, The fist for sport and trained fighters.
In MMA are strikes to the feet and hands considered 'legal'? e.g. it's hard to move around if your foot is damaged or hard to form a fist if a finger is dislocated...
The fouls for striking in MMA include: the back of the head, back of the neck, spine, groin. Unified rules also include the following as fouls: Kicking or kneeing the head of a downed opponent. Stomping a downed opponent.
Everything else is fair game as far as striking is concerned.
Ramsey plz tell us what should be our whole getup (including underwear to shoes) while running outside or treadmill and how much shld we eat before or after and when. Also when shld we go for nature's call, before after/morning or night. Plz tell us every thing which is related to running to stay healthy. Just don't tell us to walk every day for 30 mins while breathing 😂
Bubble whip !!!
Hater sensei grandmaster chosen one, what happened to your title? Did you loose a title fight?
Who else didn't noticed the mirror and taught there were two guys training
So, if i only use the Heavybag at home for some "light" training just to get rid of all stress and doing nothing really competetive related and when trainig only 2 days a week i can use MMA gloves on the bag, right? cuz for me the boxing gloves feel a bit clunky sometimes :/ - greetings from germany
Yes you can my friend
Ramsey- I watch a lot of your bag work and it looks like your focus is on footwork and technique and it looks like it really reduces how much work you do. I always thought that bag work was a workout- that I should throw as many punches and kicks as possible as hard as possible to get the best possible workout- then I can do things like footwork and set ups some other time. Furthermore, those kinds of drills might be easier with a partner or in open space -no? How much of your bag work would you say is skill training and how much would you say is cardio/strength training?
Hello Ramsey, love it channel. Could u make a video on a proper headgear for MMA sparring? Also I have a question on wearing elbow and knee pads for MMA sparring. Since elbows and knee are allowed it would make sense that you should practice as closely to the sport of MMA as you can, but safely ofc . Do you recommend it and if yes what brand would be good?
Quick question coach! I recently joined college and there's no opportunity for joining an MMA club. I can easily do my karate training with kata and basic movements, however how do I practice MMA alone?
I have sparred hard 3 times only in my life and got hit in the head a few times and recieved 15-21 punches in total punches in which 8-10 of them were hard but didn't cause any damage as I sparred with beginners and practitionrers who were but never got knocked out due to the jaw and also took 2-3 months break between those 3 sparring sessions i did only for 2mins each will I get cte later in life? I started sparring at age 19 only.
I doubt it. Why? Are you experiencing some adverse effects right now?
@@RamseyDewey no the doctor also said that i don't have any adverse effects and I will be fine but still what is your opinion will i recieve or not? Please sir reply.
Hey Ramsey, Chris here. Do you think boxing is a good substitue for mma during recovery from leg injury? I am not speaking about fighting on a wheelchair but giving mostly healed leg additional recovery time without risking lowkick, some kind of leg by leg block while wrestling or any sort of twist during groundgame being takedown.
I would figure it would be hard to stand up with a leg injury.Footwork is an internal part of boxing people (whom aren't boxers BTW) seem to not understand.
@@KWillo I get that, but I meant if your leg is 'almost' fine. (A long period in which some really hard movement generate pain, however duing normal activities like running or keeping stance is perfectly OK.)
I am considering my own case right now. As I don't feel like giving myself a break for 6 months or so, but at the same time from my own expierience I'd prefer to stay a bit safer.
Cool vídeo. I just did 15 rounds in mma gloves, on the heavy bag. I was wondering if my punches were wrong, cause my finger got all peeled. Apparently it's normal
you have to tape up your fingers and then wrap them, safest way that I've found
What about if I mostly double ended bag, should I use boxing gloves?
If you want to
Hello! Just subscribed your channel is great. I have one question for you. Im thinking in starting to make boxing but im concern about the risks of brain concussions during sparring at the gym. I dont want to compete or take it to serious, should i be concern about? Thanks!
Of course you should be concerned about that. It’s a very real risk- and a lot of people have no idea how to spar safely with any level of control.
@@RamseyDewey Thanks for your answer. Fuck it just looked so much fun but now im not sure anymore if i want to start.
What about bag training gloves?
Sure.
hi Ramsey I love your videos and I have a question, I can only train twice a week and have to bend it around schoolwork projects ect, so my question is, am I better off going easy and being as close to 100% for those two sessions or going all out and not care about muscle pain the rest of the week?
also if I can squeeze in a second question, do you have any familiarity with atemi jujitsu?
thank you, love the vids, now I'll wait till tomorrow and get out there and train.thank
Dewey im 15 years old now I started of with Karate when I was 14 then switched to MMA. I've been doing MMA for a year now. And my progression was rapid fast, in less than a year I became the best student at the GYM, better than peple traing for longer times than me. do you think I have potential to be a great fighter, and if so should I take It seariously. Because im equally talented at soccer.
You're 15 do everything you can. Decide only at the last possible moment and keep your options open. If you can be professional at mma or soccer you can do anything in the world. Oh and learn to dance it'll make you a better human.
@@johnflorio2351 thank you for your advise. I will definetly learn to dance. I can already dance like Muhmad ali in the ring
Hey Ramsey I just underwent surgery recently and I started my training a few days ago and I face difficulty trying to lift the weight I could lift before which is understandable but should I lift the same amount of weight that I could lift with few reps or light weight with more number of reps
The knuckles are not my enemy anymore after a year heavy bag.
I hit quick and hard. But i stopped since 2 months.
Because my both wrists and elbows hurt so much the last five months that it doesnt feel good to still exercise also too much pain. The docter says it is impact pain i have to stop hitting the bags.
What do you think? Also i am 55 years maybe to old for heavy bag?
Any ideas how to continue?
Change your punching technique. “Impure punching” is technically analogous to throwing a fastball- both are terrible for your elbow joints. Switch to “pure punching” (analogous to throwing a curve ball) which is a much more ergonomically correct way to move the arms and won’t give you tennis elbow.
th-cam.com/video/UD-JQnp9Xwg/w-d-xo.html
hey Ramsey, whats your opinion on training to use rules to your advantage? for example im thinking of having an MMA fight soon, but for the amature fights they normally wear shin guard, so i was thinking of not spending to much time practicing my checking as i am happy to take leg kicks with shin guards as id rather us that opportunity to punch or land a takdown. (somthing i would not accept so willingly without guards) do you think this is a dishonhest way of competing and will hurt me in the longrun? obviously their are many ways to use rules to your advantage but this was just 1 example.
You don’t have to check leg kicks, but you shouldn’t be taking them. Learn how to catch them so you can more effectively take your opponent down off his kicks. If leg locks are allowed under the rule set you’re using, and your well versed in heel hooks, shin guards are going to make those A LOT more effective.
Use every advantage you have. And when the rules change, learn how to exploit them to the fullest.
@@RamseyDewey thanks, yeah its a sport after all.
i guess im just trying to figure out wheres the line beetween having a smart game plan and being the soccer player crying contact when noone touched him.
Ash h here’s the difference: in a lot of sports, like soccer, you can gain an advantage by playing the part of the victim. Fighting doesn’t work that way. The only way to win is to be the aggressor.
If I want to leave a question should I leave it hear or do you have another preferred method for me to ask a question?
Just leave a question in the comments

I have a question about my gym. I’m not allowed to use equipment at my gym, unless I buy it through my gym. They don’t have a brand specific to buy, so I’m wondering what’s the reason.
They want to make more money.
Ramsey Dewey Thank you for your response. It is bought online, so I’m not fully sure if it’s money. Good thing to think about, it might be.
Hey Remsey,
I have a question. I recently joined a judo gym/dojo and I have one problem. The group is very small there are two trainers and only 4 other trainees. I like the way they train, location, the techniques are all legit but it's just such a small gym. Should I stay there or look for a gym where I can find greater competition?
Saloin Hi, as a Judo Coach , i allowe me to answer... you Are just starting judo? What for do you train? Are there any more dojos in your town? The first time you need to learn "dancing"/ how to move in a fight and to keep Training. There is a Gym, were you like and trust the people and just have fun very important, you will def learn how to fight. If you out weight the others with 30 pounds, Are more advanced and want to compete on a higher level, than sonner or later you need a big gym with different opponents in your weight class. But high level sport is full of assholes and coaches who dont give a shit about you if you cant win gold.
Where Are you from? Here in germany nobody earns money with judo. there for, nobody cares if you dont pay for the second school. Every body is just happy with a fighter more on the mat
@@momoswandelndesschloss4047 I have former experience in Martial Arts but just striking so I moved to judo a month ago. I train to stay healthy mentally and physically and of course fun. I live in Vienna so there are more gym in a 30 minute radius than I can name. I'm still not sure whether I want to change or not but if you as a Coach think a small group of people are enough and I'm not missing any aspects (which I'm sure I do.) Then staying would be the logical way.
Saloin 😅 so weit can talk in german? Ja wenn du dich wohl fühlst, mit der Gruppe klar kommst, den Trainern Wettkämpfe nicht fremd sind und du am Ende zufrieden bist, dann machts keinen Unterschied. Ich selbst trainier einen provinzverein, und wir sind quasi regelmäßig gezwungen, unsere talentierten Jungs und mädels an die größeren Leistungsstützpunkte abzugeben, wenn sie Leistungssport betreiben wollen, da sie im Training einfach die verschiedenen Partner in ihrer Qualitätsstufe brauchen, um mithalten zu können. Da war ich selbst, man lernt viel, aber das ist einfach nur ein Sportaspekt um die letzten 5% rauszuholen. Aber ich frag mich grad schon, wieso eine Gruppe in Wien so winzig ist. Wenn die Leute bzw Trainer selbst sehr wenig oder nie auf Wettkämpfen waren, dann wird das Niveau leider sehr schwach sein. Das ist beim judo ein echtes Qualitätsmerkmal! Wir im Judo haben jede Menge Schwarzgurte die vom echten Kämpfen leider keine Ahnung haben, auch wenn sie gute Menschen sind, keinen Blödsinn erzählen und echten Spaß dran haben. Randori ist schon das A und O in unserer Kunst. Aber ich versteh auch, wenn man drauf pfeift und sich einfach einen netten Abend machen möchte... Ok ich hoffe ich hab dich jetzt nicht verwirrt
@@momoswandelndesschloss4047 Dankeschön für die ausführliche Antwort
Nice work Ramsey. What do you think about training with gloves but without hand wraps?
I think early retirement
What size boxing glove for high volume heavy bag work, 10oz 12oz 14oz 16oz ?
Whichever you are more comfortable with. The make and model of the glove will make a bigger difference than the weight.
@@RamseyDewey 👍thanks Bro 👊🥋🥋

Dude you need to narrate audiobooks.
I see dudes in the gym using cheap-ass MMA gloves that have no idea what they're doing. Please, get a solid pair of boxing gloves; Cleto Reyes; Winning, great gloves that are expensive but worth the money if you're going to be battering your hands several times a week.
Do the research and find the best gloves you can afford, and stay away from Neverlast! Your hands will thank you.
Yea I brought mma gloves to muay thai practice, and ended up getting the skin torn off all over my knuckles. So as punshiment for being so "smart", they made me do a fuck ton of knuckle push ups until I said "I will never make stupid decisions" 1000×😂😂😂😂 . Maaaaaan was that a bitch; learn from this mistake please.
Was the cute little girl Ramsey's daughter?
Yes she is
Good points. I still advice people to use as light boxing gloves as possible. Bag gloves that are about the size of a mma glove are great for bags and mitts. 10-12 oz AIBA gloves are far better than regular 16 oz gloves, which are just useless in every way.
The fist will get stronger in time, as long as you don’t damage it. Going full force is not needed every time.
That's your view of her, A Cute Little Girl?! All I saw was a monster in training! She's going to go around the world wrecking everyone before her! *Shudders in Horror*
Second
Of course this is bull.... Tell this to the okinawan karate guys. There are mma training gloves which have more protection, but uinlike the boxing gloves you learn to tighten your fists. In a boxing glove the hands are not really making a solid fist.. as you should know.

Boxing gloves are so sht. Literally made for one reason to protect your hands. It just doesn’t feel right, you can’t feel your knuckles.
