HIT N MOVE TURTLE Focus Pads Black

A Smarter, Safer Way to Train Body Shots

The Turtle Mitt is a purpose-built boxing focus mitt designed to make body shot training safer, more efficient, and more ergonomic for coaches and training partners. Inspired by the natural protection of a turtle’s shell, this innovative mitt introduces a proprietary dorsal shell—a raised, padded target on the back of the mitt—specifically engineered for catching body punches.

Traditional focus mitts often force pad holders into awkward arm and wrist positions when receiving body shots. Over time, this can place unnecessary strain on the wrists, elbows, and shoulders. The Turtle Mitt addresses this issue by providing a dedicated, reinforced body-shot surface that allows pad holders to maintain a more natural arm position while still presenting a clear, realistic target.

The Dorsal Shell Explained

The defining feature of the Turtle Mitt is the dorsal shell, located on the back of the mitt. Visually similar to a turtle’s shell, this raised padded area is designed to safely receive body punches without requiring the coach to turn their hand or forearm into vulnerable angles.

By using the dorsal shell instead of the back of the hand or a flat mitt surface, coaches can:

• Present accurate body-shot targets
• Reduce strain from repetitive twisting motions
• Maintain better control and balance during drills

This design helps support long-term pad holding, especially in sessions that include frequent hooks and straight punches to the body.

Ergonomic Design for Long-Term Pad Holding

One of the biggest advantages of Turtle Mitt boxing mitts is how they support safer pad holding over time. With conventional mitts, body-shot drills often require exaggerated wrist rotation. The Turtle Mitt’s shape allows the arm to stay closer to a neutral, aligned position, helping pad holders work through high-volume sessions with greater comfort and confidence.

This ergonomic approach makes the mitts especially valuable in boxing gyms where coaches run multiple sessions per day or where partners regularly hold pads for each other.

Lightweight and Balanced for Fast Combinations

Despite the added dorsal shell, Turtle Mitts are designed to remain lightweight and well-balanced. This balance allows seamless transitions between:

• Palm-side catching for head shots

• Dorsal shell catching for body shots

The mitts move quickly and respond naturally, making them suitable for fast combination drills, rhythm work, and reactive training. Coaches can flow between targets without interrupting the boxer’s timing or footwork.

Practical Tool for Coaches and Training Partners

While Turtle Mitts are clearly designed with professional boxing coaches in mind, they are not limited to gym owners or full-time trainers. Anyone who regularly holds pads—whether in a gym setting or during partner training—can benefit from the added safety and usability.

The mitts are intuitive to use and do not require specialised knowledge to get started, making them accessible for dedicated amateurs and training partners who want a safer way to support body punch drills.

Best for Structured, Realistic Boxing Training

The Turtle Mitt fits naturally into structured boxing sessions where realism, safety, and efficiency matter. Whether working on tight inside combinations or controlled body punching, these mitts help create more authentic training scenarios while protecting the pad holder.

Train smarter, protect your hands, and improve body shot drills with a mitt designed around real coaching needs.
