In the first technique, the striker begins with a rear leg uppercut punch and follows with a lead leg cross uppercut punch. He finishes with a clinch and cross knee. The next one delivers a non-stop barrage of angle kicks to both sides of the pad-holder. The last involves low kicks, a rear hand hook and an uppercut punch.
Seasoned Muay Thai fighter and 3-time bronze winner in the world championships, Kru Hemanth Kumar has also perfected Self-Defence techniques targeting vulnerable pressure points. He has spent three decades teaching and training in multiple styles of Muay Thai.
After reading up on the first three combinations in Muay Thai pad work fight training, you’ll now be introduced to Pad Work Combination 4. As usual, this involves a striker delivering a series of attacks and the pad-holder blocking them in quick succession. There are three techniques in this combination.
In this routine, the striker begins by attacking with a rear leg uppercut punch and following through with a lead leg cross uppercut punch. To finish, he clinches the opponent to pull from the opposite side while releasing a cross knee simultaneously.
This technique, though a nightmare for the pad-holder, is very useful for the striker to develop speed and power while moving. The striker delivers a non-stop barrage of angle kicks to both sides of the pad-holder, the tempo steadily increasing. This training is extremely effective in improving stamina, strength, and of course, most importantly – timing.
The striker begins with powerful low kicks aimed at the pad-holder’s lead leg. This is followed through with a rear hand hook. And to finish it up, an uppercut punch is released, wrapping up the training.
