Anyone ever heard of this?

I heard if you take a rod or even a bamboo stick, and roll it across your shin bone real hard (up and down), over along time like a year you wont have feeling in your shin. im gonna try it out :P

Whatsamatter, can't make other body parts hard enough, hehe.

Kick sand pads, heavy bag and do leg sparring drills.

Yeah, dude, I've heard of that. Walter "The Sleeper" talks about that shit on one of his tapes. Rolling sticks and bottles and whatchewlike.....kinda like kicking banana trees or something. Anyways, Tom Yum is right. Kicking a sand bag and doing Thai pad work will get your shins plenty hard and conditioned over time.

that might give you problems when your older. Its better to kick thai pads, heavy bags, etc...

Here is anther good one for you to try if you can:

Take an old Worn down tire with NO trend left on it, make sure there is no rim inside. Place the tire againest a wall or whatever, and lighty start to kick the tire with your shin.

Works like a charm.....

What you heard is CRAP!!!!!!

Just do what they do in thailand & kick the pads & work up to a heavy bag.

Rubbing things down your shin WILL deaden the nerves like kicking the pads but it doesnt HARDEN your shin.

Calcium Buildup?

If you want hard shins I recommend alot of milk and just good old fashion kicking the shit out of a tree with your shins until you get calcium buildup to harden your shins.

[JP Prideaux]

Tie a nice thick phone book to a tree and kick the hell out of it.

Works wonders for me.
