Hand wraps Vs Gel gloves

vangoz · 2013-04-23 09:53:15

Hey, I'm wondering has anyone use or has used gel gloves in the past. I've always used hand wraps but if I'm running late for training wrapping the hands up correctly can be a bit time consuming. What do you think are the pros's and con's of each?

Hand wraps are better in all ways, support, comfort etc

Gel wraps go on faster bit the 20 seconds extra putting on hand wraps is worth it.
