- Online courses: hard2hurt.teachable.com/ Besides sparring, mittwork or padwork is one of the things people miss out on most when they can't get to the gym to work with a trainer. If you want to hold pads for your kids, or get your spouse to hold pads for you... make it FUN.

Question for Viewers: What kind of mitts do you have? You can get these mitts I recommended here: revgear.com/mx-2-curved-focus-mitts/?aff=8
I do have kickboxing pads and live with relatives but can't ask them to hold them since they are over 60
I used to use focus pads for a few years, but now I use coach spar mitts (ring side and twins pro) as I believe pad holding should benefit both the holder and hitter. I also use Sandee curved Thai pass and the fairtex donut pad. I use 2 different combo number systems for boxing, kick boxing and MMA.
The coach spar mitts simulate a more realistic fight situation and also help improve my counters, parries and hand blocks, and also keeping my guard up
Sanabul, full sized. I hold them for the kid once in a while, I've never hit them myself. I'd like the micro pads if I was hitting them, I'm all about accuracy, I don't need to worry about power when I am hitting mitts. Uh, if I ever were to be able to hit them.
I have a basic disc style set of hand mitts and a pair of the long rectangles. I like the more catcher's mitt style you were showing but now isn't the time to replace stuff that is working well enough.
A bunch of cheap flip-flops recommended by a guy on the internet called Icy Mike, idk if you heard of him😅 But in all seriousness I have some thaipads.
That kid throws some nasty kicks! Good work mike
Thanks man
Im gonna call him icy tike
that kid look just like his mother!! straight in the face!!
Of course he does, he’s Icy Mikes son! He’s probably gonna become better then you someday Mike if he chooses so!
Best luck I've had getting my fiancee involved is for working on my head movement. I'll put gloves on her and say "alright, try and hit me in the face"
She seems to have a good time
I love this that's genius
I did this with my girlfriend. Problem was she boxed for five years. She had fun, I did not.
@@demonitized1020 One thing I have learned from many years of sport is that it better to hit than getting hit.
"Hey do you think you can try holding pads for me?" really means "Hey do you want to argue for an hour?"
Fair summary haha
Ryan: Maybe double up! You get her to hold pads and have a difficult -but productive- conversation!
Skill issue.
My RESPECT for Icy Mike as a family man, on top of as a fighter! Those are phenomenal advice on how to involve your family in your hobbies. Seriously, I want to be a husband and a father like him
The stop and grin/acknowledge moments you guys had are actually adorable. My kinda couple goals/bonding.
I think she actually started having fun.
Super emotionally intelligent of you to acknowledge that criticism affects us differently depending on who gives it to us.
Lmaooo “Kristen... I promise I been hit harder.”
As a single parent with two kids who take boxing lessons this video is very helpful. Now i know why they hate working out with me 😅
My fav part about this video:
*”bing bang, bop boom”*
Mines *"Bing Bing boom bop"*
Mines "Bada bap boom poww"
My wife agreed last week to hold mitts for me. This is super helpful in my approach and mindset going into it. Thanks!
As always great tips! I've never thought of pad work in the way that you give them puzzles to solve. I've always used patterns probably why my kids gets bored after 2 minutes
There's a time and place for both. I think if you're a novice pad holder than patterns are going to be more valuable... but play with the idea. Think of games like Simon and Bop It.
The real magic of this video is getting your wife to participate.
Amen
Good advice. Your kids got some skills too! Glad to see you are all keeping well during these crazy times, stay safe!
My daughter is 8 months old.. and I'm already watching videos like this. It's awesome though. Your wife is like get me tf out of here, but your kid is having a great time. And he ain't gonna get bullied!
She also cracked a smile...almost like she was having fun...
"That's fine , ehh that sucked " lol
Damn that's a good thumbnail. It's like a shot of a team in a video game:D
My missus and i do pad work occasionally and she loves it, i get her to visualise someone who has pissed her off and she nearly takes my arms off, i can tell she's not as keen to hold the pads but i don't get why she won't do it more often!
I think it's a great form of core work, cardio and self defence.
Good stuff - my wife didn't enjoy me teaching her lol But she's a good sport on some of the stuff like holding pads or helping me demo something
I like how pedagogical are you, in this and other videos. Not too harsh bus still demanding, I have not met many such on spot senseis/instructors.
Maddox is the REAL DEAL!
My wife and I did some mitt work at the park yesterday. About 70% mitt work and 30% arguing so all in all I'd say it was 100% successful. 😏
That's a pretty good split.
You r truly a wise man, it’s a fine line for me doing this with my daughter lol
Yeah it's a very delicate thing.
really good points about human nature, great coaching ,thanks
Holy shit your son is good. You look like a lovely family, this makes me happy :)
3:15 is the best part
Awesome advice, nice to see you're working out with your family too it's always good to know these things it helps stay in shape and who knows if they may ever need it better to know it. Best to you and your family, man. Love your videos!
Thank you so much.
This is incredible timing haha.. was just thinking about getting someone to hold pads for me at home the other day 😂. Will probably give it a go tomorrow!
Just started digging into all your videos! Love the content
You have a beautiful family Mike. God bless y'all!
Great vid as always! I am sharing with my whole school! Stay healthy!
Damn. Maddox kicks with some HEAT!
He's legs are so skinny they are like swords.
This is great me and my 14 year old daughter are working on this together and I’ve learned a lot of mitt work also thank you it’s great
This is why I love your channel
the segment with your wife was so on point. we are probably all somewhat guilty of that. maddox is going to be a beast. cool to see the fam.
Hey bro she was definitely getting into it for sure haha 😂🤙🏻
Loved it
Beautiful family, awesome training advice. I know exactly what you mean about them gladly taking advice from someone else lol. By the way, your boy got some badass kicks.
Fantastic! Please more simple combos for kid and dad training, thanks!
Beautiful family! Great content. Keep it up brotha!
Lovely family Mike. Nice video .
Very fast hands and a fine kick.
asking my wife for "quallity" time is easier than asking for holding pads.
Quality time or... quaaaaaality time?
Making my sister and my girlfriend watch this ASAP . Good stuff
Nice video I have held the pads for my grandson but my wife never has maybe we will try it. Your kids have some good kicks also
Been needing this!
That outro was hilarious 😂
How do I get my partner to spar with me
How do I get my partner to have a full contact full force mma cage fight in my basement
@@donlino3246 Tell them about your side piece.
That'll probably do it lol.
@Dirkjan how do i get a partner?
Haha
Step 1: get a partner
Step 2: start throwing hands at them
Step 3: Google 'How do I escape the police?!'
Step 4: cardio.
What a great family.
Thanks Mike!
Thanks mike. Great video
Learned this year's ago being my kids travel coach. Save yourself the aggregation and have someone else do it. I also have my kids spar with me with similar equipment. You have great advice I only wish this video was up years ago. Haha
10:56
Mike: Which makes it a
Kristen: *yawns*
Mike: ... a bonding moment, I guess. :(
You're making me want to go back to training again 🤔😃👊
Holy shit, your boy's round kicks! He's going to be a beast!
GOOOD vid Icy Mike. Iv just started with my 7;year old nephew yesterday. First time. I’m actually a boxing trainer and hadn’t had to teach basic footwork for years. Took me a while but your wright about keepin it fun. Plus I haven’t had to deal with the Hight disparity Fun throw. Any way. You keep putting out vids and I’ll keep watching and liking em mate! cooee from Australia
Excellent stuff 👍👍👍👍
Really good video. Not coaching and letting them just work for the sake of working is good advice.
Yeah some dads/husbands/boyfriends take things like this more seriously than they should usually.
I love this channel 👍🏿
I finally got around to this video, because I'm struggling with my four babies (ages 16 - 7). I appreciate the tips, and that fact that you've been married long enough to know that the wife and kids aren't as geeked to do it as the resident martial artist in the home. Thanks, man. Hope to see more content...holy shit! Could I get more content in how to drill with family, at home?
Nailed it!
Solid video
Awesome to see you and your family training! Really enjoy your videos Mike. Can you please show me how you built your pull up bar on the ceiling? Thanks
Yeah I'll do a gym tour video soon.
That looks like fun...
Thanks 🙏 very nice n helpful
awesome familyworkout - i`ll try parts of it with mine :)
best wishes from germany
It's actually a Great family bonding
More videos like this!!!
WOW its like you read my mind but I remember asking about how to help with a teaching girl friend. Thank you so much, Mike. From: NotoriousMoneyMike. One of the big things I found was the way people hold for kicks especially beginners or people who have been training for a long time hold them straight with not much of a slant. so you are basically kicking straight.
Nice job
Love it
One trick i used when i was teaching tkd i would explain how the technique worked for me . Fix the problem on yourself and let them know that it made you better. Thanks Mike
Thanks... I needed this. I have one in TKD, one in Judo, one in boxing... and the wife with attitude while I’m holding pads for her. No... they don’t want to here... I keep it light.
My God Mike😶 You have the coolest family ever🤗🤗 and this is great advice👍👍
Good stuff
Crazy explain alot not just boxing but life
Mikey Jr got the saucy hands!
nailed it!
Thank you man
Dude your kids a bad ass man
Thanks dude.
Little Man has some pop on that kick .
Beautiful video Mike. Ain't no one here holding pads for me though :P
Damn...been trying to get my wife to hold pads for 3 days
Maddox is looking sharp!
He feels like a scrub. We are all so rusty it feels weird doing any of this.
Was holding pads--well, improvised pads--for my daughter yesterday. I wish I'd seen this first, but was doing pretty much the same thing you were doing with your wife. If I could get someone who knows what they're doing to work with my daughter, she'd be scary. She's already strong af and has good power.
they are called Akebono
Kids is so powerfull 🤩🤩🤩
Adorbs!
Thank you... but never type those words again.
That thumbnail is hilarious.
Are you starting to get a Chuck liddell belly Mike?
Mike, at roughly 8:50 when you describe how to push the pad into the punch, when I do this with my wife she complains. Am I doing it too hard or do I not need to do it at all? Thank you
Nice video Mike! What do you think about my rear naked choke video? Any tips or criticisms? Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on it if you have the time ofcourse. Have a good one!
Love this. Beside every great man is an even better woman.
nice video
Mike, you should upload a video of virtual sparring.
He did twice
Dude is getting tall!
Which pads should i buy for home
Hello, thank you so much for making this video.
I am watching because my boyfriend is a Muay Thai fighter and all gyms are closed due to Covid. And, he's been using me to hold pads for him.
I am a skinny girl 46 kg and he's muscly 60ish kg(like a fighter). Every time he asked me to do it it's been a pain in the a*s for me... though I really want to help him train and do this for him but I can't be happy and having fun doing it... Trying to figure out how to hold pads correctly but it seems I am horrible at it (as he complains every time since I started doing this)
I tried to do good but I don't know if it's my weight that has to do with this that I can't keep holding my pads stably when receiving his punches...
I need some suggestions I guess...
THIS VIDEO IS WHAT I NEEDED...TODAY I GOT SOME PADS I BOUGHT TO TEACH MY GF HOW TO PROPERLY PUNCH (BECAUSE I BOUGHT SOME HEAVYBAG FOR MYSELF AND SOME TIMES SHE JOIN ME BUT I NOTICED THAT SHE NEEDS TO WORK IN HER TECHNIQUE(IM NOT AN EXPERT BTW)) AND I THINK THAT THE WORKOUT I HAD PLANNED FOR HER ITS KINDA NOT WHAT SHE REALLY NEEDS RIGHT NOW.
THANKS TO THIS VIDEO IM GOING TO KEEP IT VERY BASIC, FUN AND IMMA TRY NOT TO OVERWHELMED SHE WITH STUFF THAT JUST IS GOING TO STRESS HER OUT AND DONT MAKE HER TO DONT WANT TO DO IT ANYMORE.
BETTER TO GO SLOWLY SO WE CAN BUILD SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE AND THEN START ADDING MORE SHIT!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE INSIGHT!!!!
Im definitely looking to get tips from the holders side. I wana do more pad holding as a coach/instructor. But I'm still getting used to it from that side. I love hitting pads with a good coach, and I wana be a good holder as well. I had a good coach.
It's definitely good that you recognize it as a separate skill. Make your practice at it intentional, not just mindlessly repping things out.
@@IcyMikeP last yr I got my first taste of pad holding without another coach overseeing or assisting. And the person had no martial arts background except for a cardio kickboxing studio like a month prior. And i realized the separate skill required for both trying to teach as well as using pads to teach. (The person i was working with was my friend's gf).
And my capoeira instructor has allowed me the opportunities to work with new people on the side sometimes so I still get some instructional experience.
Great video! Coaching your romantic partner is a huge challenge I am very familiar with, she also happens to be my favorite student but yes it’s quite different. Great interpersonal and training tips as always.
Thank God your kid looks like your wife! 😁 That's a cool looking gas water heater; which brand is it; does it work well? Hate "cold showers" ...😁
I'm experienced enough to know training with you wife ends up in an argument with gloves thrown across the room.
Kids right leg is DANGEROUS 🧨🧨🧨🧨
