Hell yeah. I train Kyokushin, but it's still nice to have some strong shins for checking kicks.
I would disagree with the "hitting your chin is not affective" because I did it for a year and I can tell you that my shinn defenetly got harder + It does not hurt like back when I started it. You have to be carefull tho since if you do not leave enough time for the bone to heal it self you mitght end up breaking it.
Running is extremely good too
absolutely! Thank you for sharing.
Great advice coach! Not too long ago I was considering rolling my shins but I did research and everything you said is 100% correct! We did not do Muay Thai at 3 years old it is not part of our culture. So we just have to kick heavy bags and pads like you said. I’ve noticed great improvement from kicking the heavy bags over and over again and harder. Also running is fires too terrain which causes incline and down hills helps. I’ve learned to heal the shins with hot water and tiger 🐅 balm or that shin ointment from Thailand 🇹🇭
Good info. Thank you for sharing sir 🙏🏽
Thank you 👍👍
I know that guy in the corner
very true boss..

My bro knows more tie! Bet
The reason why I use a round 2inches diameter piece of wood for shins , ribs , etc : controlling the pain signal . So I can continue when I fight. Hence I do not hurt my partner in order to do endurance . Also, as much as I can , no shin protection. : I learn more where to land my kicks and to block them adequately.
I'm trying to figure out the science behind this? Because wonderboy has an entire video on shin conditioning.
What about running for strong shins?
Yes! That helps as well.
Handsome AF😍
Max was here
Idk i dont do boxing i started kicking heavy metals now i have really hard shins i can kick decent to hard things without it hurting much but my friend cant
LONG COMMENT AHEAD.
This video is probably the only one that i seen to adress plyos and strenght training wich is the right direction for bone strengthening.
Bone conditioning by hitting things and microfractures healing back stronger are not real, that doesn't happen.
To summarize, there is two cells in your bones called osteoblast and osteoclast that create new bone tissue and eat it away respectively, patients with osteoporosis have an increase number of osteoclast cells but exercise has been shown to slow down the natural decline of osteoblast cells through age maintaning bone mass well into senior age in patients that exercised consistently since young.
The only exercises that have been proven to actually strengthen the bones by increasing osteoblast are strength training, calisthenics or weights, plyometrics and running at high intensities, longer distances at moderate speeds not so much and all of these happens to be things that combat sport athletes do a lot of.
So mentioning box jumps and tibia raises makes this video infinitely better than basically everything else on this subject and saying that thai have much stronger shins on average because theh been doing it since childhood is objectively correct but because of their strength and conditioning, also because they been competing since childhood and that makes all their training much more intense than someone that has been doing martial arts since childhood but as a hobby.
There is also 0 evidence that fractures or microfractures heal back stronger, because this doesn't create new osteoblast cells, if you damage your bones the same amount of osteoblast cells now have to fix that damage on top of the usual damage osteoclast already produce so unless you create new osteoblast cells through strenght training and plyos you would only end up with weaker bones.
You might think that some places teach you to flex your muscles as hard as you can right before impact, so this should trigger the same adaptations as a box jump if you do it hard enough, right? Unfortunately this isn't the case either since is known that only exercises with flexion and extension cause this and only at hard enough intensities and when there is constant demand for adaptation (progressive overload) and static contractions do not cause bone adaptations, since the static contractions are equivalent to your own strength,, only way to improve it is with actual strength training.
Obviously you need to hit bags and pads but thats to work on technique and combos aswell as aerobic and anaerobic conditioning if you do high intensity rounds of it.
Spamming kicks on bags for shin conditioning is a waste of time unless your form is absolutely perfect on every kick in wich case you would get better kicks by making your technique better, not by making your shins stronger.
So basically, work the heavybag and pads for technique and hit the weights, run and jump more for stronger bones.
Outstanding! Thank you for sharing such detailed information. Your knowledge is evident and I greatly appreciate you sharing it. Thank you again.
@@Krufessor_Rad Thanks for the kind words.
I’m 16 should what should I do?
are you asking what to do to strengthen your shins? I covered that in the video sir. Just train. heavy bag work, pad work, sparring, and plyometrics to build up your shins.
if you meant something else. I apologize. Please clarify. Thank you for the comment.
I'm not in a place where I have anything to train with, does just hitting my shins with the side of my hand all around my shins for a long while work too? Of course I don't hit too hard or else my hand will be a bit painful. Its like karate chops on my shin but I curve my hand a bit to cover a larger area and not make my hand feel painful
I don’t think that would be of much benefit. If you can hit a heavy bag that would be better, but if that is not an option then do some plyo metric workouts. Exercises with jumping. That would help a little.
@@Krufessor_Rad thanks for the help on my journey👍❤️

Can I still build up a respectable level of shin strength at age 33?
yes, I was in my 30's when I started. You won't catch up to the Thai fighters who've done since childhood, but that shouldn't be your goal. You can build up a respectable level.
Thanks
@@Krufessor_RadThose Thai fighters been training since they been in diapers.
@@Krufessor_RadWhat about in your 40s? lol I started realllly late!
@@darrylh547 yes, just train and grow stronger, but stay on top of your recovery.
False, wrong, inaccurate pick your choice.
Have you trained in real Muay? Have you tried the 5 step shin training process? If not be quiet.
Shin train is ongoing process period, end of story, not debatable. You do not develop tough shins 'over time'.
Where in the hell are you getting your information? And you can kick pads all you want, your not going to have same shins result as Muay.
Unless you do the shin training on regular basis, your shins will stay sensitive.
Fighters do it days before a fight to desensitize the nerves in the legs. When I was fighting, I did the same thing and right before fight I used ice on legs.
Why are you saying this when you clearly do not have a lot of experience in Muay. You are not even kicking with right part of your shin bone. Your toes should not be facing towards sky when wheel kick. Big toe should be below other toes when kicking like that so right part of shin bone hits.
Not up to debate, not up to argument, you do not know what you are talking about.
Where are you training at?
How a guy before 2 months could say that a tradition is wrong.. don’t grow fighters like this.. if you want to train your shins in Tai make a trip in Thailand for 2 months and you will understand what bs our coaches teach us.. I learn in 2 months tips and training skills that I don’t learn the last 7 years in eu!
