Look at the hand wrap strap to determine which side goes down against your hand. Pull the hand wrap strap around your palm and up around your wrist a couple of times. This wrap needs to be secure and snug without being too tight.

Circle the hand wrap around the knuckle area of your hand a couple of times. The wrap will be going between the thumb and index finger.
