Gloves in video

Hi Cathe! Love your work! I am interested in the gloves you wear in your kick boxing workouts. I have a tendency to irritate my right wrist due to my intensity. I think that wearing these gloves may help to stabalize the wrist and keep it from hurting after my workouts. I can't seem to find them anywhere.:-( What are they called and do you have a recommended place to attain them? Thanks!

Not Cathe here, but FYI: They aren't gloves, though they look like it, they are hand wraps, held in place with black tape.

If you want to use weighted gloves, I highly recommend "Ironwear" gloves (they manufacture gloves for other companies, like Reebok). They are comfortable, filled with heavy, flexible rubber rather than sand or hard metal.

IMO, if your wrist hurts after your workouts, then gloves could just add to the problem. The wraps, however, might help, because they would stabilize the wrist. (make sure you are not "flicking" your wrist when punching...I can't think of any other reason punching would make your wrists hurt.)
