Focus Pads

Description

A focus pad, also known as a punch mitt or target pad, is a type of training equipment used in combat sports and martial arts to develop and improve striking technique, speed, accuracy, and power. It consists of a small, handheld pad that is designed to absorb impact from punches, kicks, and other strikes.

Focus pads are typically made of durable materials such as leather, synthetic leather, or foam, and may contain multiple layers of padding to absorb impact and prevent injury to the trainer’s hand. They may have adjustable straps or closures to ensure a secure and comfortable fit, and may be available in different sizes and shapes to accommodate different types of strikes.

Focus pads are typically used by a trainer or partner, who holds the pad and calls out combinations of strikes for the athlete to perform. This allows the athlete to work on their striking technique and timing, while also developing their speed and power.

Focus pads are commonly used in boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai, and other combat sports and martial arts, and are an essential tool for developing and refining striking skills. They are also a popular training tool for fitness enthusiasts and personal trainers, as they provide a challenging and engaging workout that improves cardiovascular health, strength, and coordination.
