Pad work

Take this slowly, stay balanced, and ask your coach when something feels unclear.

category

training

plain english

Punching focus mitts or Thai pads held by a partner or coach. It needs two people. You cannot do mitt work honestly by yourself.

example

Coach calls 1-2-3 on the mitts.

why it matters

It is how combinations get timed to a real target. Treat it as partner work, not a solo drill.
