Well I agree but hitting hard things I would say like a hard soild bag then i would agree cause kicking hard things could be like a brick or like a pole :nod:

kicker is correct, kicking bricks and poles is for the "macho" young kid. Wise people don't injure themselves to be tough.

I think there is some effectiveness/truth to toughening up one's shins in the process of Muay Thai training, since your shins will form calluses and when you have calluses it's like having an extra crusty layer and at the same time you are more numb. The idea though, is not to hit or condition them to the point of injury or um massive hemorrhagial bleeding but probably just up to the point of when the skin is almost about to break (kinda like stretching and flexibility, I think). I think conditioning is good as long as it is done slow, persistently, and under good control. Of course, having some nice powerful callused shins might ruin your chances of becoming captain of the cheerleading squad, so if you have any plans to go for state or district I advise you stay away from this kind of training. Also on a much less important side note :uhoh:, those supercharged ultimate shins of death might give you trouble as you age. Muay Thai definitely is more suited toward the young in my humble opinion and it is hard to keep up your skill and/or proficiency in MT when you reach 50 and beyond.
