A focus mitt is a padded target attached to a glove and usually used in training boxers and other combat athletes. The use of focus mitts is said to have come about as Muay Thai and Far Eastern martial arts made their way toward the United States in the late 1700s. The concept first began with using foot tongs or slippers on hands to absorb the impact from kicks and strikes. Modern day punch mitts came into more widespread use in the mid-1960s when Bruce Lee was seen using them in his training routines. Although they have been around for decades, they were never a central part of coaching until the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. Now they’ve become an almost irreplaceable part of a fighter’s routine.

- Mits, även kallad boxningskudde, är en slags kudde som används för att praktisera sparkar och slag inom kampsporter som karate, taekwondo och boxning. Mittsar används ofta i ett par där de sätts fast på händerna så den andra utövaren kan praktisera olika typer av slag. Det finns även större typer av mittsar som den ena utövaren kan hålla i så den andra utövaren kan praktisera olika typer av sparkar på. Mittsar är ofta gjorda av läder och innehåller stora mängder av skumgummi, vilket ger mittsen en mycket hård konsistens. (sv)

- A focus mitt is a padded target attached to a glove and usually used in training boxers and other combat athletes. The use of focus mitts is said to have come about as Muay Thai and Far Eastern martial arts made their way toward the United States in the late 1700s. The concept first began with using foot tongs or slippers on hands to absorb the impact from kicks and strikes. Modern day punch mitts came into more widespread use in the mid-1960s when Bruce Lee was seen using them in his training routines. Although they have been around for decades, they were never a central part of coaching until the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. Now they’ve become an almost irreplaceable part of a fighter’s routine. The person holding the focus mitts will typically call out combinations and "feed" the puncher good counter-force while maneuvering and working specific skills. Focus mitts are often used as an augment to sparring, with more explicit focus on the puncher than the feeder, especially to develop good punch combinations and defensive maneuvers such as "slipping," "bobbing" and "weaving." When wearing focus mitts it is important not merely to hold them but to actively "feed" them into the punches, to balance their force and prevent injury to both parties. Similar to a focus mitt but designed for different purposes are heavier Thai pads used in muay Thai boxing and MMA, kicking shields, body shields and uppercut shields used in a variety of martial arts to help gauge distance and practice techniques with kicks, knees, elbows and uppercuts.

Mittsar är ofta gjorda av läder och innehåller stora mängder av skumgummi, vilket ger mittsen en mycket hård konsistens. Mer avancerade stadier av kihonutbildning för att stärka muskler, ben och hud använder detta tillvägagångssätt, som kombinerar repetition för att nå korrekt avståndstagande. Ett exempel på ett traditionellt sådant slagpåsemål bland flera inom budō är Makiwara. (sv)
