Round 2: Target recognition, but have strikers with their backs to the wall and curved kick shield holders in front of them. When instructor yells “CLINCH!” striker clinches pad holder in Thai Clinch position, throws two knees and spins them on centerline to get away from the wall, and throws non-stop knees until instructor calls “TIME!”. Reset. As many phases as you want and then switch.

Round 3: Same as Round 1 except PADHOLDER has back to wall and instead of clinch, Instructor calls “STOP!” (For safety) then “KICK!” Striker throws Defensive Front Kick and tries to sprint to opposite end of mat. Pad holder drops pad and tries to chase them and tag them with two hands. If striker is caught before touching wall, they do 5 burpees. If pad holder doesn’t catch them, 2 burpees.
