Once you've found a gym, it's time to invest in the right gear for your chosen combat sport.
You'll need boxing gloves, hand wraps, a mouthguard, and potentially other protective equipment like shin guards for kickboxing or MMA.
Your gym may provide some of these items, but it's a good idea to invest in your own high-quality equipment, especially if you plan to train regularly.
