Boxing Punch Trackers are starting to become a go to gadget for boxers looking to measure their punch output so they can continue to improve in their training and in the ring.
Most punch trackers all primarily have a similar design and are all associated with an app for you track your progress on your phone or mobile device. While they aren’t a guaranteed way to improve your boxing skills, they do help you keep an eye on your overall performance and helps you push to improve e.g. punch volume and intensity.
How do punch trackers work?
Punch trackers are a bit of technology that you usually wear within your hand wrap while boxing training. They have been designed to track how many punches you throw, the velocity and intensity. Some punch trackers are also able track what type of punches you throw. This can be useful for boxer themselves and coaches to see punch tendencies or and work rate level in terms or punches thrown.

Piq and Everalast have teamed up to produce one of the most popular punch trackers which will help to really measure your punch count whether you are using a heavy bag, shadow boxing or on the mitts with your trainer.
Like with all the punch trackers you are bout to read about, this will give you access to their unique app that will show you all the stats of your workout. It’s also great for showing how many calories you have burned from your workout – amazing for you cardio lovers!
The PIQ & Everlast Tracker comes with an adjustable handwrap strap which can be applied on either wrist under or over your boxing glove, along with a PIQ ROBOT which is adaptable to any USB charger.
Now the big downside to this is that you only get one tracker! It will basically mean you will have to buy two of these if you want to measure punches from both sides. Something to keep in mind.

These trackers give you access to their app which helps you to view your punch output in real time and measure your daily, weekly, and monthly progression. The app works for both iOS and Android phones.
The downside to the Bxtrackers is that level of detail in the app is not aa much as the other trackers but at least you get two trackers to measure punch stats from each arm.
You will need handwrap to use these for your workout, but all you need to do is apply on the top of your wrists, underneath with two or more handwraps. Then, you’re good start training!

This X-Force smart tracker is to be applied on the bottom of the heavy bag or the top of a freestanding bag. From here it tracks and syncs up with your smart phone app which gives you all the details of your workout.
The tracker measures punches and kicks, but the xforce system also takes your speed and endurance into account making the results more accurate making it easier for you to track your progress. They also have a cool global ranking system where you can challenge your friends or compete with others around the world who use the Force Tracker.
