The “wooden man post” has just been upgraded. Known as Mu Ren Zhuang, the iconic wooden post with hands have been used for centuries as hand-to-hand fight training wooden dummies and are believed to have originated with the Shaolin temple monks who practiced early kung fu. Enter the RXT-1 or RefleX Trainer-1, developed by an army special force veteran and a modern training partner that you can practice and spar with intelligently. Highly customizable for anyone’s training mode, it also sports a 45-strike combination patterned out with no other than the moves of Floyd Mayweather Jr.
