My friend introduced me to some great DIY pad ideas a many years back. For a single strike focus pad a phone book wrapped with duct tape makes a solid target. Leave an opening at the top so you can get your fingers in to hold on to it. It has a great feel, and good audible feedback if you hit it right or not. Another option is old fabric (our preference is old jeans cut down into its basic panels with seams and rivets removed) rolled/folded up, and wrapped with duct tape. makes a good elbow pad for a friend to hold. Alternately I've added tabs to one so I can use bungy cords to hold it to a tree. When it is on the tree it has the same feel as a heavy bag, but it lacks the swing of a bag. You have to work around it like you would work around a free standing bag.

When I started as a teenager many years ago. I'm in my 50's now. We used X-ray film for punches and kicks. My teacher also had a plastic bat with both ends cut off that he would swing at us to practice blocks, parries, and bob and weave. Both items were very useful for the training at that time and even now. We students really enjoyed the cracking sounds of the X-ray film. My Sensei would keep us all on on our toes when swinging the bat because he would be swinging it at one student but then suddenly swing it at any students within his reach. He believed in teaching us to be alert and prepared.

Ok - I really dig your approach to striking. I can see there's a lot of depth to it. Great video - loved the revolving camera work at the end.

Wonderful, no-bullshit-accepted advice right here. I've done the couch cushion thing myself before, works pretty well! It was also awesome to see Maddox put in the work, kid's got heart for sure, and the editing with the rotating camera at the end and using the heavy bag as a cutting point to swap the real gear for the DIY gear was really well done. Awesome video, thanks for helping us stay on top of things during these chaotic times!

Good on you training your boy in the garage. Makes me think of my wrestling days as a youngster also training in the garage with my mates. Ill definitely incorporate that again with my son who is almost two.. Only problem is all the space needed for Al the hobbies... My garage is for my workshop at the moment. Thanks for the inspiration and congratulations on your achievements thus far. Your boy has some nice head movement :) Respect✌️

I actually agree, I made few stuffs using random stuff. Like old couch cushion and some rope as pads or a wooden pole thing and some bottles as barbell.

At first I just wanted to know how to build pads, but damn was it sweet to see you and your Kid spar, really brightend my Day.

Always loving your videos Mike, thank you for the ideas !!
