MMA Bag and Pad Work (diary entry)

04.12.2024 Due to an injury, my client and I decided to er on the side of caution and not spar for a change. That didn't mean training wasn't intense! He followed this routine: 5-minute rounds

1. Uppercut bag - knees and punches

2. Heavy bag - low kick combinations

3. Uppercut bag - combinations into body locks

4. Heavy bag - combinations into shoots

5. Ground bag - ground 'n pound

6. Ground bag - guard pressing

All rounds with active rests of footwork, shrimping, break falls, shadow boxing, takedown repetitions or combinations of all 3-minute rounds

1. Focus mitts and leg-pad - punching combinations, sprawls, shoots and low kicks

2. Ditto with pad on other leg

3. Thai pads and belly pad - teeps, body shots, body kicks, knees and elbows

4. Thai pads - all combinations and shoots

5. Focus mitts - ground 'n pound

6. Focus mitts - striking from guard

The lesson finished with a warm-down of static stretching and PNF stretching. https://clubbchimera.com/services/
