Hitting Focus Mitts vs Hitting the Heavy Bag | Which is Better? 

Hitting focus mitts and Thai pads offers a more realistic training experience compared to a heavy bag. While the bag swings, it doesn't provide the dynamic movement and feedback of a live partner. With mitts and pads, your partner controls your movement, simulating a real fight scenario where you must react to incoming strikes.
Additionally, unlike the bag, the person holding the mitts or pads can throw punches back, requiring you to defend and counter. This interactive aspect makes focus mitts and Thai pads superior for developing defensive skills and simulating combat.
Training with focus mitts and pads also prepares you for sparring, as you transition from controlled drills to more dynamic exchanges. Full disclaimer: While hitting a heavy bag is an effective workout, it lacks the realism and interactive nature of partner training, which are crucial for developing practical fighting skills.
