How can I clean the insides of my boxing gloves?

I accidently left my boxing gloves out in the rain %26amp; now they ******* smell like dirty water! %26gt;;/ Can anybody help me!? I wanna be able to hit my punching bag again%26lt;3 =/|||What do you do to keep your leather boxing gloves clean?


%26gt;I mean, just the smell of mine will knock out any opponent :)


%26gt;I%26#039;ve seen folks use foot spray or gold bond %26quot;medicated%26quot; powder...


%26gt;Any suggestions?








Baking soda inside the gloves cuts down the smell. But it%26#039;s better to


dry them out good after each use. You can use bent coat hangers to


hold the gloves open, and the hooks on he hangers will hang the glove


up while they%26#039;re drying.





Shaving cream will condition the leather without adding weight. Used


to use it on baseball gloves for the same reason (doesn%26#039;t add weight,


like neat%26#039;s foot oil).|||use stuffed up new paper, the n spray freebrezze in to them, or leave a nice smelling bar of soap over night in them

What do I wear for a black tie boxing event?

I%26#039;m 24 and female. It%26#039;s an amateur boxing match and I have no idea what other women will be wearing!|||My suggestion would be to wear something else simple that you%26#039;re more comfortable in, (preferably in black), and dress it up with accessories. Wear a strappy, dressy, high heel in a special fabric, sheer dark hosiery (the sheerer, the dressier), and some jewelry that sparkles. Bare skin is also an indicator of dressiness, so bare arms or showing some shoulder are good options here.





Hope this helps.


Now go give me my 10 points.

How do you stop yourself from beat boxing?

It isn%26#039;t like I am good or anything... I start beat boxing when I start searching on google.|||LOL


make different noises with your mouth.


bite your lips


(lightly)|||Play music--or try Merciless Pacifist%26#039;s suggestion (especially since it%26#039;s hilarious). Along the same lines, try the old rubberband method of training yourself: place a rubberband on your wrist (like a bracelet), and snap it every time you catch yourself beat boxing. It works on a principle called association. Whenever two things happen one-after-the-other, the brain assumes the two are %26quot;associated%26quot; (hence the name), and attributes qualities from the second thing to the first. In experiments, the experimenter (whose name escapes me) would ring a bell before feeding a group of dogs. After a while, the ringing of the bell was enough to get the dogs to salivate (like they would at the thought of dinner). In humans, I%26#039;ve read of a condition where one who%26#039;s allergic to bees will swell up at the sight of one (as though they%26#039;ve been stung). In this case, the mind associates bees with painful allergic swelling to the point that it produces painful swelling at the sight of a bee--even though it%26#039;s actually the STING of a bee that would cause the swelling! For the rubberband, your brain would associate beat boxing during Google with pain, which you/it dislike (I assume), which means your brain would learn to dislike beatboxing during Google. It%26#039;s called %26quot;aversion therapy,%26quot; and you probably knew most of this already!|||Punch yourself.

How long before you can enter a boxing show?

If i was a new guy stepping into a gym/club how long would it take (ON AVERAGE) before i was good enough to have a fight in a boxing show at an amature level?|||Once your fitness level goes up, you get some sparring under your belt and your body becomes accustomed to the intensity of the training, most trainers with the old-school mentality wouldn%26#039;t let you have an actual contest for 6 to 12 months. This is partly the reason why people start boxing and drift away: Because they are too impatient, and after 2 weeks of training, they want to get in the ring and fight, and will be pestering the trainer to allow them to do so. It%26#039;s all about instant gratification. The trainer knows best (or should do, in theory), and will decide, and most likely know, when a guy is ready to get in the ring and have a contest. Listen to the trainer, and be patient.|||Paulie answered this question better then I could. He`s right try to get in shape before you rush into any fight in that squared circle.|||That would depend on your level of fitness and skill before you started. Your trainer will be able to tell when you%26#039;re ready to fight. But I would say a couple of months. You would be matched to someone of similar skill and experience, so even if you had only trained for 1 month, it%26#039;s unlikely you%26#039;ll get beaten really badly because the other guy wouldn%26#039;t have much more experience.
