In reply to your "closed thread" (what's the point in that?)...

The heavy bag is the best way to condition your shins. Just do say 10 mins of hard kicking, after which your shins should sting a little. Then wait until you feel that they have fully recovered (1 or 2 days) and do it again, and so on. It takes a long time to condition your shins, years, not days or weeks. Don't try to get there too fast, you will only end up injuring yourself in the process. Certainly don't start hitting yourself with sticks or bottles, or kicking trees etc. It is unlikely that wearing trouses will make any real difference. Keep doing it and you will eventually notice the difference, but it will take time.

You should keep your ankle bent a little in case you make contact with your foot instead of your shin. If your toes are pointed it is much easier for your foot to get bent back by the power of the kick, resulting in a sprained ankle. If your ankle is bent it is more rigid, and has a bit of travel which reduces the chances of spraining it. Watch that you don't break your toes though as they will be pointing towards the direction of the kick. At first it can be difficult to kick without injuring yourself when sparring, especially your toes. It takes a bit of experience to realise when to stop a kick, or when not to kick, to avoid injury.

It's simply, the technique to prepare your chin.
10 minutes of hard kicking in the bag, each training.
Do not strike your chin with a Glass bottle or kick a Tree to condition your chin.


Good luck....

yea chrismann, that is a good way to go- make sure to consume lots of calcium (drink a lot of milk- high in protein too.) as time goes by you might find youre able to do a lot more, and nothing should stop you from doing more if you can handle it. the others were also right- none of that kicking trees or anything stupid... dont use a roller on your shins either, if anyone ever suggests it. if you look around, you might find some heavy bags are harder than others too- next time youre in big five check it out.
