When ya'll wrap your hands for muay thai, do you wrap your thumb or not. I go with a traditional muay thai wrap, but some people who also use that wrap don't wrap the thumb. Or they don't wrap the thumb real well. Just wondering how ya'll do it.

What do you do for your hand strength?

ya i don't wrap the thumb either...i make the little knuckle pad then wrap between my fingers....which apperently is actually illegal in ammateur boxing...didn't know till the other day...but ya gives me so much more mobility...especially if i'm using mma gloves too

Yeah they frown upon you wrapping between the fingers in boxing. But I like it and it helps , I like the Muay Thai wrap better than the boxing wrap. It ust seems to protect your hand more.

No. I do not wrap my thumb. When I was 15 I broke my thumb punching a guy and that ******* sucked. I was more of a reckless power thrower in those days, I threw my right hand and missed him except for my thumb. I bet the guy has a funky scar on his face, but I have limited range of movement in my thumb :*(
