בתאילנד מי שלא יודע האימון קשיםם ביותר.
המתאמנים רצים קילומטרים רבים,עבודת שק קשה ומורכבת והדבר המדהים ביותר אימון בעיטות על גזעי עצי הקוקוס.

wrong. עצי בננה ידידי.
מה שרואים בסרטים ואן דאם בועט בגזעים מוצקים וקשים זה בולשיט ולא מועיל.
התאילנדים מתאמנים על עצי בננה, כמו שהייתי עושה כשלא היה לי שק בבקעת הירדן
עץ הבננה הוא עץ רך יחסית ומשמש תחליף מעולה לשק אגרוף

Thai boxers conditioned their shins by kicking trees. To be more exact as children they would kick banana trees, as the bark of the tree was very fibrous and relatively soft like balsa wood. As they continued to kick the tree with time the trunk would become compacted to the point that it became very hard like teak. This occurred over a period of months if not years, therefore the gradual hardening of the tree trunk was not noticeable as the shins with which they were kicking were likewise becoming both harder and also used to the impact related nerve stimulus (pain). As I mentioned previously this was done with banana trees, and when last I looked there aren't many of those about in Birmingham, Manchester or London outside of the botanical gardens, so for most people that would be a non-starter, and it doesn't work on oak trees so don't do it. Also under the folklore heading is hitting your shins with a stick to toughen them up. This technique will help your shins to thicken up, however it's really dumb. Your shins will thicken as hitting your shin bone will cause it to bruise and as such the blood will start to calcify so making that particular part thicker and therefore denser, however because of the lump you now have on your shin, your shin bone now has a raised area and therefore as an effect you have a stress concentration at the point where the lump joins your shin. As such when you block with your shin rather than one shin bone sliding over the other, it will come to a stop at the lump therefore focusing the energy of that kick through your shin bone which can be enough to fracture the shin bone. Therefore bashing lumps out of each other's shins is not advised, for the same reason care should be taken when rolling the shin bones. This I've seen done in Thailand where coke bottles are used to roll up and down the shin bone, however as the coke bottle has raised flutes on the outside of the bottle the same stress points can be produced. During my own training I had for a period of several years a scaffold pole rolled over my shins by my training partners, with their weight bearing down on it. Although somewhat painful, this compacts the surface of the shin and causes even bruising, which ultimately leads to uniform thickness of the shin bone and therefore no stress points. However once you start sparring, even with shin pads you will eventually clash shins, which results in lumps. However this method does make your shins thicker and gets the nerves used to the pain associated with the impact of a strike. Okay the easy way. If you simply kick a heavy bag (ideally one filled with sand or very dense material) your shin will become compacted and therefore more able to deal with impact stresses. The same thing happens kicking Thai pads, which it why it's the most used method throughout Thai training though not nearly as glamorous. The other methods are simply used as a shortcut.
