Question:

Is it safe to box with resistance bands or dumbells in your hands?



Answer:

If you want to train for boxing with resistance, use the bands instead of dumbells.

The problem is not with the resistance but with deceleration (slowing down) of the weight. When you box, you don't want to slow down your fist. If you hold a dumbell, you will have to slow it down otherwise you will throw your shoulder out of the socket.

Resistance bands decelerate your hands for you because the resistance increases as you stretch them out. They actually work quite well for boxing training and I would highly recommend them for boxing training.
