How I Stopped Injuring My Wrist in Boxing and Increased My Punching Power

When I first started boxing, I quickly fell in love with the sport. The feeling of actually pushing myself and achieving something was thrilling. However, there was one problem—I kept injuring my wrist. Not once, not twice, but four times in my very first month of training.

The Struggle and the Solution

Whenever I threw a hard punch, I felt a sharp pain in my wrist. After four injuries, I knew I had to find a solution. My research led me to boxing legends Gennadiy Golovkin and Artur Beterbiev, who incorporated wrist strengthening exercises into their workouts. Inspired by them, I sought an easy way to reinforce my wrists and reduce the risk of injury.

The Results: Stronger Wrists, Harder Punches

After focusing on wrist strength, my pain disappeared. I could hit the heavy bag with full power without hesitation. Even better, my coaches and training partners noticed that my punches became sharper and heavier.

Key Takeaways

 1. Wrist injuries aren’t just about technique – Weak wrists can’t handle impact

 2. Strengthening your wrists is essential – Even top fighters focus on it.

 3. More stability = more power – My punches became stronger after improving my wrist strength.

If you're struggling with wrist pain, don’t ignore it. Strengthen your wrists, and you'll prevent injuries and improve your punching power. The right tools can make all the difference.
