Is it necessary to wrap your hands for 20 mins of light bag work?

[Kristian]

I'm just wondering, I have a bag at home and if i'm not going for a complete training session, i might just pop on it for about 20 mins (including breaks). Now during this light bag work, is it really necessary to don the handwraps?

I assume your mean that your still wearing gloves, just without wraps?

I always put wraps on regardless, it only takes 30 seconds so it's no hardship if your then gonna spend 20 minutes on the bag is it?

Yes, I meant gloves without wraps. I see your point btw.
