So, is the idea of using rolling pins to deaden nerves in your shins a rumor? Does this actually help? When you say shin conditioning, what exactly do you mean; other than actual sparring and training. Is there anything you do specifically? Thanks.

The two best methods I've come across in my training are using a makiwarri only if it'staning free from the floor. And lots of bag work.

Kick the Bottom of the bags because usually this area of the bag is more compact and harder due to setting of filling material. It take time to properely condition the shins. As for the thighs try getting a partner to trade kicks with start with an impact leval that is just above tolerable and set a number of kicks to take and try this a couple times a week.

For shins if you need to get the rolling pin out and go on them for a bit. And for thighs just keep taking hits to the legs. You can do it yourself so you regulate the amount of pain being distributed so that you dont injure yourself but you feel it pretty well.

Hi....

There is ony myth , I dont know if its true or not.

Some friends of mine insist in hitting your shin with a Hunting /combat /big butcher Knife (not the edge , the other thin side of the blade).

For the tights...training... I have a DAMN big black bruise with the size of a CD....

It all depends on the technipue you use to do your legs. If you use the right technique for your body type and for youself in general then your legs should be great in a year or soo.

I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.

I'd stay away from the rumor mill of shin conditioning and just stay with constant drilling and sparring. Eventually, you'll become accostmed to the strikes there.

We do some warm ups involving kicks to the legs, parrying kicks, ect. that go a long way to getting your body, specifically your legs, used to absorbing trauma.

Remember to back off, espically early on, if you get a truely signifigant and painful soft tissue injury or radical bone brusing along the shin. Hobbing around sucking wind for weeks while you attempt to push through will only slow down your over all training progress.

I have heard this advise quite a bit. It sounds to be a very gradual, natural process. Thanks for the advise.
