Punching mitts Rival RPM10 Intelli-Shock

Rival Boxing Gear was founded in Canada in the early 2000s and has since experienced steady growth in the world of martial arts, with a focus on classic boxing. The company was founded by Russ Anber, a prominent name in the boxing world.

Anber, a respected boxing trainer and coach, had deep knowledge of what fighters needed to improve their skills and excel in the ring. With this background and expertise, he aimed to produce high-quality gear that would meet the needs of fighters.

Yes. This material has been proven to be at least as strong as real leather. Moreover, it retains colors better and is less prone to tearing and temperature fluctuations.

Intelli-Shock D3O™ is the best shock-absorbing padding in the world.

Rival Boxing Gear was the first, and is currently the only, company in the boxing or MMA world to use it.

How effective is Intelli-Shock? You get the same protection with about a quarter inch (6 mm) or an eighth inch (3 mm) of Intelli-Shock padding as with about one inch (25 mm) of other padding. This is because it uses Intelligent Shock Absorption™, a patented shock-absorbing material developed with Intelligent Molecules.

At low speeds, the molecules in D3O™ flow freely, making it soft and flexible, while at high speeds the molecules lock together to form an excellent shock absorber. D3O™ provides significantly more protection than conventional foams, making it the perfect solution to enhance the internal protection of equipment and accessories.

The Rival RB10 Intelli-shock bag gloves, which use this technology, harden on impact and reduce not only the amount of energy transferred to the body by 40%*. This means there is a drastic reduction in stress upon impact, but the glove is also about 38% lighter than regular bag gloves with gel technology available on the market.

D3O® is an innovative material with extreme shock absorption! Unlike other padding materials, D3O® maintains its durable performance throughout the lifespan of, for example, boxing gloves. It is also used in protective clothing for defense and extreme sports, such as ice hockey.

Punching mitts, also known as focus pads , are compact pads that are held by a trainer during a training session. The terms punching mitts and focus pads are used interchangeably. However, in our view, there are subtle differences between them, which is why we have made a distinction on our website. Punching mitts are mainly intended for punches and punching techniques.

Thai pads, also known as kickpads or pao, are larger pads that are held by a trainer to practice both punches and kicks.

Punching shields are usually round, large pads that the trainer or partner holds in front of the body. These are especially suitable for all kinds of punching techniques, including hooks, liver shots, and uppercuts.

Kicking shields are the really large pads for punching and kicking. They are ideal for beginners and children who, to put it bluntly, are not yet very accurate. They are also very suitable for advanced users, as these pads allow them to practice their technique with full power .

Punching mitts are mainly used for practicing fast punches, combinations, and defensive techniques.

They are designed to help the practitioner develop speed, precision, reflexes, conditioning, and coordination. Punching mitts are also portable and easy to use, making them ideal for one-on-one training sessions.

Using punching mitts:

• Improve precision and technique
• Improve speed and reflexes
• Improve strength and endurance
• Improve guard and defense
• Simulate realistic combat scenarios in a safe way
• Fewer injuries
