In the past, grappling dummies have been frowned upon for their inability to replicate what a real-life person can do. While this may be true, a grappling dummy shouldnāt be used to directly replicate your training partnersā real-world actions, behaviors, and movements. One of the biggest benefits of using a grappling dummy for MMA is to drill techniques repeatedly without relying on anyone else.
Bruce Lee said, āI fear not the man who has practiced 10,000Ā kicksĀ once, but I fear the man who has practiced oneĀ kickĀ 10,000 times.ā- with a grappling dummy, it is possible to accumulate a significant amount of reps to compliment your overall game.
