Ground And Pound” Gloves A Must For Taking It To The Ground

July 14th, 2010 · No Comments · Martial Arts

The “ground and pound” glove is made with padded sections that protect your partner which makes it the perfect glove when you are taking it t the ground. They have other helpful features as well.

Mixed Martial Arts, as we all know, is a full contact combat sport that is a combination of both striking and grappling techniques that take place both while standing and while on the ground.

Because the moves and skills are so different in ground fighting as opposed to fighting while standing up, the gloves needed vary as well.

“Ground and pound” gloves fill the need for what a fighter will encounter while on the ground.

The glove has curved fingers and heavy padding to reduce fatigue. It has a two-step securing system that uses a second, shorter hook/loop strap to help lock the glove in place which reduces movement and makes for a larger hand opening so it is easy to slip on and off.

In order to cool the hands down, the closed palm glove is made with mesh ventilation and individual finger slots for ultimate dexterity. There is also added ultra light sponge foam over the back of the fist and knuckles for secure training.

The glove also features new ClinchStrap and has shorter strapping as well as the regular strap in order to help keep the gloves in place.

Because they have more padding, they are called a practice glove. This makes it easier on your partner!

The gloves are available in small/medium and large/extra large and run fairly true to size.

If you are going to be working on your “ground and pound” skills, a great “ground and pound” glove is a must!
