We'll not box too much to avoid the muscles, also skipping rope before the boxing starts. Zam, it really depends on the boxing trainer. Avoid eating carbohydrates too. :wink: asc_26

Any time you like weary_heart Bear, Where to buy good gloves and other kickboxing stuff? Tnx. bear There are a few good places i've seen... one's in Ibn Batutta in the china part, one in City Center near Ikea, and one in Emirates mall under magic planet. weary_heart Thanks. Need to check it tomorrow. bear You want gloves as close to Sparing Gloves or Fingered Bag Gloves for training or sparing; not the standard American Boxing gloves, they are just too heavy for a fast martial art. Here are some examples below.
American Boxing Gloves
These are what you don't want... Notice that they are thicker and heavier.
Bag Gloves
These are gloves with thin padding, best for professional sparing and practice. The Fingered Gloves (Right) are the type that are used in the UFC.
Tissue Gloves
These are your best option. They are cheap and the perfect glove for training and light sparing. These are the type used in martial arts tournaments for Karate, Taekwondo, Judo, and Jujitsu. weary_heart

Hi there, you can buy from Al Noon Sports in karama just next to the pyramid bullding if youre looking for a wide variety of gloves at a cheap price. if you want it fast, then just go to any sand & sand sports and buy a TABO or Century product. i vouch for the TABO since i have some of their products and the gloves i bought lasted for 4 yrs on regular use for muay thai.
