Focus Pads

Focus pads are flat pads held in the hand, and are used in boxing, kickboxing and martial arts to protect the hand of the user from injury and abrasions. They usually measure 12 inches in diameter and are made from vinyl or dense foam covered in leather. The focus pads are held by the trainer or instructor whilst the boxer aims and punches at them at different positions, ranges and levels. The goal of the exercise is to improve upon the defensive and reflexive skills of the trainee.

There are many different type of focus pads; named according to their purpose, material and level of usage.
