conditioning

Featured Replies

anyone condition their shins differently than the mind numbing, endless repetitive kicking of the bag?

I do know someone who hits his shins on the side of a desk. He's rather mad though!!!

it doesnt come easy.....you are gonna have to do it BY KICKING THE BAG

 

you can also get this stuff that you spray on your shins and feet to numb them out

You can boo me if you want, You know I'm right!

i spent 2 years lightly hammering on my shins with drumsticks, and as the months grew on i increased and increased until i was beating on them pretty hard. pain tolerance has gone waaaaaaay up too, either that or i killed some nerves. i wouldn't reccommend this for everybody.

A friend of mine DIED from banging his shins too hard. Just kick the bag :cry:

Just kick the bag! Rolling pins, kicking trees (My friend and I saw some idiots doing that. We just laughed), bottles....it's all rushing it. You'll pay later on for messing with the things that I listed above. They don't have the bags and pads for nothing.

Yoda I dont mean to bring back sadness but how exactly did you friend die?

 

I have been trying to work out in my head who he died from a banged up shin.

 

Cheers,

 

Dave

He banged his shin too hard and got a big egg on it - it turned nasty & he was dead 6 months later - Shin Cancer.

 

You'd be horrified if you knew how many young Thai's over there die this way - they just sweep it under the carpet. Not good for business :cry:

i'm sorry about your friend too, it's very unfortunate.

 

you guys are acting like i said i let a truck drive over my shins daily. i said lightly, with pine drumsticks, over the course of two years, and it usually followed a bag workout. i don't run around kicking trees or breaking vodka bottles on my legs guys.
