While taping methods vary, the goal is always stability without cutting circulation.
Simple Support Wrap
- Wrap above the joint
- Wrap below the joint
- Connect with a light strip across the joint
This creates a brace-like effect while allowing movement.
Key Tips
✔ Don’t wrap too tight
✔ Avoid covering knuckles completely
✔ Check circulation
✔ Rewrap if tape loosens
✔ Practice before class
Different injuries may require different techniques, but even simple taping can provide meaningful support.
Using BJJ finger tape designed for grappling ensures proper support and durability during hard training sessions.
Common Mistakes When Taping Fingers
- Wrapping too tight and restricting blood flow
- Covering knuckles completely (limits mobility)
- Using weak or generic sports tape
- Not reapplying during training
- Waiting until injury instead of preventing it
Learning how to tape your fingers properly is one of the easiest ways to protect your hands and train consistently!
