Yes, they did. They were slaves, POW, and other captures who were picked to fight. Before every match, and when they wern't fighting, they would use a rudis, or wooden sword, to practice. The would take planks of wood as shields and practice in there traliers, horse looking trailers, and would also be taught by many strong military been. But most POW would not particapate believing they were already prepared.

Why were the gladiators beaten during training?

Gladiators were not beaten unless they broke some rule or their instructor felt that they were slacking off. If they were training in a mock combat, they could be beaten by their opponent and hopefully learn how and why they were beaten and rectify their mistakes so as not to repeat them in a "for real" fight.
