    If your talking about a sandbag or wooden pad its usually for bone and skin dexterity.

    usual technique is to punch it without fully extending your arms to absorb the force properly like hitting it hook punch if you stood facing it diagonally or just a slightly bent arm when doing a straight punch. Make sure NOT to hit it to hard

    -Conditioning is over time hitting it super hard and breaking your fist or scraping your knuckles instantly wont help
