Disk 2 - Advance Thai Pads “The punch mitts are critical for educating the upper body’s offensive & defensive skills.“ To be an effective fighter, you need to be smooth in your punching, moving seamlessly back-and-forth from offense to defense with ease and finesse. Nothing else teaches this better for the hands than the mitts! A good mitt holder is hard to find, but very important for your training. If you are like most people, you need to “make your own“ through proper training! This DVD is a CRAM SESSION of how to “feed“ the mitts correctly, get the most out of your training,and accelerate your skills to an exceptional level. Topics covered on this DVD include: Rockback with Counters: How to fire a killer punch from a defensive motion. The rockback is a very useful maneuver and when combined with offensive moves becomes an important aid. Double Jab with Counters: A technique to help you flow well off of your jab. The ability to have a set of viable options that flow off of your jab is something that every fighter needs.
