[Drilling without shin guards - do's and don'ts?]

Hi all!

What are your thoughts on doing partner drills without shin guards? Shin to shin contact sucks, does it keep sucking, or do you get used to it?
What's the prevalent opinion on training without shin guards in Thai gyms? Do fighters train without pads prior to competion?

Thanks!

Gilles

Thanks for the feedback!

I have mainly been kickboxing, so low kicks are a major part of training. It got me wondering what the OG's in Thailand have to say about them.

Keep up the good work!

Hi!

I've been perusing the muay thai library erratically, and I have noticed that a lot of trainers don't really cover lowkicks.

Pornsanae's the power of hooks and low kicks was amazing, are there other sessions in the library that are a must see on low kicks? What's your favorite one?

Also, as a side note, do Thai trainers always emphasize middle kicks in training?

 

All the best,

Gilles
