Punching mitts, also known as focus pads called 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 our website distinguishes between them. Punching mitts are primarily intended for punches and punching techniques.

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

Punching shields are usually large, round cushions that the trainer or partner holds in front of the body. They are particularly suitable for various punching techniques, including hooks, liver shots and uppercuts.

Kicking shields are the really large cushions used for punches and kicks. They are ideal for beginners and children who, frankly, are not yet very accurate. They are also highly suitable for advanced practitioners, as these shields allow them to practise their technique with full force .

Punching mitts are primarily used to practice fast punches, combinations, and defensive techniques.

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

Use punching mitts to:

• Improve precision and technique
• Improve speed and reflexes
• Improve power and endurance
• Improve guard and defense
• Simulate realistic combat situations safely
• Reduce injuries

The weight of punching mitts is not necessarily an indication of their build quality. Some very lightweight mitts, such as Rival Airpads, are extremely durable.

Lightweight punching mitts are especially comfortable for trainers during prolonged use, but usually a little weight is desirable as well, and heavier mitts tend to be sturdier.

However, this is not necessarily the case, and it varies by brand and price range. We have weighed all the punching mitts in our range and added this information to a size chart for the relevant product! bij het betreffende product!

Some punching mitts, especially focus mitts or hook and jab pads, are smaller than regular punching mitts.

These pads are smaller because they are designed to improve a boxer's speed, precision, and accuracy, rather than simply absorbing powerful punches.

The smaller size forces the boxer to focus on hitting a smaller target. This, in turn, helps refine their technique, precision, and reaction time.

Benefits of small punching mitts (micro pads):

• Focus and accuracy: smaller punching mitts, such as micro focus mitts, require the boxer to be more precise with their punches. This helps develop better accuracy and timing.
• Speed training: the smaller surface area of micro punching mitts allows for faster punch combinations, helping the boxer improve their overall speed and reaction time.
• Less padding: compared with regular and larger punching mitts, micro focus mitts generally have less padding. This means the trainer holding the pads has to expend less energy keeping them up and can focus more on the actual training.
• Specific exercises: smaller punching mitts are often used for specific exercises focused on speed and accuracy. Larger pads are better suited for developing power and absorbing heavy blows.
