What to Look For In a Good
Grappling Dummy: You should look for a training dummy
that is manufactured by a reliable company. That way, you know
you're getting something that will last and take the abuse you're
going to dish out.
Second, you want to take into
account the weight of the grappling dummy. Too heavy, and you
won't be able to use it for throwing and conditioning drills;
too light, and you're going to want to buy another one before
long.
Third, you want to consider
whether you want a dummy with arms or without. If the style
you slect has arms, then you can practice upper body submissions.
However, those arms may get in the way when you want to practice
throws and movement drills. That's not necessarily a bad thing,
but if you don't pay attention to your form, it could lead to
developing bad habits.
Our Throwing dummy.
The advantage of having the ability to drill leg shots makes
the freestyle dummy a critical tool for all three wrestling
styles in the USA. (Free Style, Folk- Style and Greco Roman).
The two arms and two legs dummy is also very beneficial for
all the marital arts and Grappling sports. It will benefit their
drills on submission holds, kicks, punches and throws. Training
throws and drills on the dummy will help the athletes to develop
better technique, flexibility, explosive power, strength and
endurance, speed, balance, coordination, a strong grip, and
good cardiovascular stamina. All of the drills with the dummy
are specific to the movements and positions in the Grappling
Sports.
Our Ground and pound dummy:
Ground-and-pound is a ground fighting tactic consisting of taking
an opponent to the ground using a takedown or throw, obtaining
a top position, and then striking the opponent. Ground-and-pound
is also used as a precursor to attempting submission holds.
This style is used by wrestlers or other fighters well-versed
in defending submission holds and skilled at takedowns. They
take the fight to the ground, maintain a grappling position
and strike until their opponent submits or is knocked out. So
on this dummy we will practice all of our ground punching and
controlling techniques.
