Om Beginner Kickboxing
New to kickboxing? The sport needs a little more gear than boxing, because your legs are involved too. The selection here is hand-picked for your first season, mainly from TOP TEN, the official supplier to the Norwegian Kickboxing Federation.
How to prioritise
- Gloves and hand wraps. The first thing you buy. Hand wraps are used from your very first session, on the bag as well.
- Shin and instep guards. For when your kicks start landing on something other than a pad. In kickboxing they cover both shin and instep in one piece.
- Mouthguard and groin guard. In place before you spar. A groin guard is mandatory in competition.
- Shorts or kickboxing trousers. Ordinary training shorts restrict high kicks. Trousers are worn in low kick and full contact, shorts in K1 and light contact.
- Headguard. Comes when you are getting close to sparring and competitions.
One tip that saves you money: if you plan to compete eventually, choose WAKO-approved gear straight away. Then you won't have to buy everything again when you sign up for your first competition.
