they(pads) do next to nothing for your power

 

I disagree.

 

If your trainer swings the focus pad with weight behind it at the same time you punch the pad, it will develop power. If done correctly your arm will come to an abrupt halt as you hit the pad.

 

A real good way to develop power is to have someone stand behind the heavy bag and gab hold as they lean on the bag. It’s like hitting a wall.

A minute of experience on the street is worth a year of training in the dojo.


If you can’t sprawl and brawl, you can’t street fight.

my instructor has us do upper cuts on the heavy bags. we usually hit it like were uppercutting someone in the stomach though.

 

that's cool - imo though, you should still do head level uppercuts, as they aren't quite the same as an uppercut to the body.
