two man bone on bone shin drills

[wiz cool c]

would like to hear from others what are your opinions on bone on bone two man shin drills. effective, not effective. what styles use these drills and positive and negative aspects of doing such drills. thanks

no one's going to respond to a thread title that starts "two man bone on bone..." but ok

Used to bang shins together by mistake when we didn't have leg guards on. About as edifying as snorting wasabi.

Negative aspects? hurts. Positive aspects?...... it's like two fallow deer banging their antlers together. If you're into that. Maybe if you kill enough of your nerves it will stop hurting. Is that a positive aspect? Or maybe some grotesque mass of extra bone tissue will accrete and you can claim to have "iron leg"

ok here is another question does anyone train in a system that does a drill where two people face each other and similar to arm banging but use their shin bones making contact?

Ok, here.



But it is not bone to bone contact. It is alongside of the bone and the back of the calf.

For over the bone, use sandbag or hard heavybag.

thanks ,along side the bone I vaguely remember hearing that too. I should this drill to one of my kung fu partners and he insisted the shin bone be used. after all the bone is the part that needs to be toughened for contact, so wonder if any system actually uses the bone for this drill.

So what does your teacher say to do?
