Boxing & Combat Equipment

Combat classes are one of the cheapest formats to add to a timetable and one of the most reliably popular. The equipment outlay is small, the sessions scale from a handful of members to a full studio, and boxercise style classes bring in people who would never book a strength session.

Punch bags

Pro style vinyl bags in 50lb, 75lb, 90lb and 120lb. Weight is chosen by who is using it: 50lb and 75lb suit mixed ability classes and lighter members, while 90lb and 120lb suit stronger users and technique work where the bag needs to stay put. A mixed wall of two or three weights covers most timetables.

Pads, mitts and gloves

• Training gloves. The basic requirement for any class where members strike a bag or pads.
• Punch bag mitts. For instructor led pad work and partner drills.
• Hook and jab pads. Focused target work for combinations.
• MMA focus shield. For heavier strikes, kicks and knees where a pad is not enough.

Buying for classes

Gloves and pads are shared, sweated into and dropped, so order in multiples and build in replacement rather than treating them as a one off purchase. Count pairs by class capacity, not by the number of bags. See also studio equipment.
