Training with gear effective and indispensable In any moder n gym they are different types of gloves for the different forms of training: 1. - The normal glove is approximately 15x25 cm with a 5 cm. absorption area and it usually has an oval form. In Thailand the size of this type of glove is quite a bit smaller. The back of the glove is the part that guarantees a strong grip and avoids injury to the trainer. The padding is very important because it absorbs the force of the impact and protects the hand, but at the same time it has to be fast, so that the trainer can manage it in a flexible and agile way.
“The bag and the gloves are not alternative gear rather they are complementary to each other..”
2. – Work with focus-gloves starts in the beginner’s phase. In this phase the trainer doesn’t move and the student learns how to execute his techniques in a slow and controlled way. Then the same combinations are connected but this time the instructor moves in a continuous way. At the next level speed and frequency are increased. The trainer simulates the movements of an opponent to give the student the sensation of a real combat since this is the final objective of all training with gear.
