Thai style hand wrapping

Muay Thai

Wrap Thai-style with extra knuckle build-up.

What coaches agree on

  • Loop the wrap around your wrist several times on every pass — the wrist joint needs as much support as the knuckles do.
  • Build a real pad over your knuckles, either by folding the wrap into a pad or layering several passes there, so they sit level with your fingers when you make a fist.

  • Bring the wrap around the thumb as well as the fingers and wrist.

Common mistakes

  • Wrapping with the hand clenched into a tight fist cuts off circulation and cramps the fingers.
