Ultimate Protection With Muay Thai Shin Pads
If you are considering training in MMA or mixed martial arts then you are going to need protection. Some form of protection for the head and also muay thai shin pads are advisable.It is the head and shins that are the most tender and can cause long term damage if not protected properly.
Mixed Martial Arts seemed to appear out of nowhere and all of a sudden it is breaking records for the amount of people watching on PPV (pay per view). The reason I think it is so popular is that it finally answered the question that has been asked by martial artists for hundreds of years. What is the most effective martial art?
Old School Thai Boxing Shin Guards
Over the last 1000 years it has been a popular technique to kill the nerves in the legs so they wouldn't need to cover them.There is no easy method of achieving this. Simply by hitting the shin with a hard object, over time this will kill the nerve endings. Another method is to get a piece a piece of wood and pressing down firmly, roll it down your shins. This also has the same effect of killing the nerves that cause pain.
Although this will take the pain away over time, it is an incredibly painful way of guarding your shins for combat. This has also been known to have long term negative effects that could make you wheel chair bound in the later stages of your life. Follow the link for a video on mma and muay thai shin pads
The Good News
It is now quite easy to prevent all of this by buying some thai boxing shin guards or even just some kickboxing shin guards to stop any pain while training.It doesn't really matter what make you get whether fairtex shin guards or twins shin guards they all do pretty much the same thing. If you can try to get shin instep guards as well as that is the point of contact when you kick someone. This is great for the people who are just training for self protection and as a means of getting fit, however if you are looking to go in to training professionally this may not be for you.
Always Remember to Put Your Safety First
The two main areas which should be covered in your training are the shins and the head. Time and time again we see fighters later on in life with damaged brains due to to many hits to a unprotected head.The legs don't cause brain damage but they do effect how you move around this world. The legs are now a major part in any stand up combat and can deliver a killer blow to the opponent and is the main cause of many knockouts in tournaments.
