- This week's Technique Tuesday I go over 3 simple ways that I like to condition my shins. Have tough shin bones and a higher pain tolerance will give you the mental edge when throwing your kicks, to the legs, body, or head. Muay Thai, MMA, and other Martial Artists can all benefit from shin conditioning. Thanks for watching!

You referred the movie “The Accountant” where Ben Afflecks gets to go that.
As soon as he said "turn on some loud music" I thought of The Accountant haha. Gotta love Wonderboy's sick references.
@@RealEllenDeGeneres you’re absolutely right. Love this guy.
Personally I always like to shampoo before conditioning!

Best way to condition your shins is walking around coffee tables in the dark.
*ends up like Anderson Silva*
😂😂😂😂😂😂
No better conditioning

i never knew I needed wonderboy on youtube till now
this video should’ve been called condiSHINing
conDICKtioning
Zipper Man I need that
@@shaquezr.9541 circumcise
Zipper Man nvm
This man is a genius.
I’ve taken like four razor scooters to the shin so needless to say that I may have the most conditioned shins in the world
Corey Withers bro
I'll add skateboards as well😂
Mate this got me, took a few of them back in the day, used to nick my lil bros scooter to do my paper round hahah. Bear trap pedals on a bmx would tear u up too damn
WOW! only 4 times and you may have the most conditioned shins in the world. I will be looking for you in the UFC. Good luck!
@@ericwalker6546 stfu
Imagine trying to watch tv over the sound of wonderboy dinging his shins
C S gotta ding em
Imagine the whole family dinging away. Got to need some volume on that TV set :P
@@WonderboyMMA - I heard you host big Shindings!
czcams.com/video/bzUVAP7JMu8/video.html
Yeah, but what can you do about it? You can’t threaten to hit him, he’s already doing that.
The “ACCOUNTANT” with Ben Affleck! Hahaha I love that scene because it reminded me of conditioning my shins when I was training Muay Thai and fighting in smokers back in the day. Stay Awesome Wonderboy !! 💪🏾
Good movie too.
I wanted to say it smh, I'm just 3 years too late.
@@ChrisDeVarro haha 😂
will that help against shin splints and stress fractures?
Everybody gonna be watching this video after the chris weidman fight
LOL me

Hahahaha is that why this shit popped up in my reccomend?
That was a bad one jeez when he stepped back onto his broken leg
I came here after conor vs dustin. Lmao
Tony is the type a guy that used to allow girls in high school to break his heart just to make it stronger

Same lmao

Quote of the WEEEK!
aaaaand sure enough, top comment is about Tony lmao
Tony that type of guy
I'm pretty much liking any comment that isn't about Tony
ITS TONY TIME
It’s his time. Simple as that
Because everyone loves tony. Hes awsome
I tried this at the gym just now, where they have a punching bag. I did 2 sets of 50 kicks on both legs, so 100 kicks per leg essentially. It was my first time doing this and you actually feel a little sore during and right after it. Hope I feel okay tomorrow😂
Connor should’ve watched this video before thinking to kick Dustin 😬
That’s not what happened
even if his shins were conditioned, it would still break, conditioning is basically just a numbing
@@mmaraio_1250 hahaha you are tripping 🤣
@@mmaraio_1250 I don't know about shin conditioning. But I used to box and in our gym we would condition our hands. They get HARD. For real. Your body adapts and your bone density increases.

Horse meat
The story of his dad hitting his shins is EXACTLY how I gained the same habit growing up😂 I’m glad that I wasn’t the only one who had a crazy dad like that🙏🏾
I am fascinated by the fact that this is exactly the routines I've been using all my life to condition my shins.
What abt slamming stick as he said , does it condition the bone ?
@@markusflavor1949 Oh, yes. Absolutely! The way he is doing it is the most gradual, safe and I am still doing that. But when I was a kid, my dad who was a sensei would have us break sticks, branches, boards and stuff over and over again.
The shooting pain on some of the breaks was intense! Especially when failing to break and knowing that I had to! A initial piercing pain locally, from the point of impact and then a radiating pain that lasts for several good seconds. Clench my teeth and go again! Interestingly is that after smashing enough stuff and breaking enough stuff, the area gets numb and hard and very warm. Same with fists (used to condition our fists and forearms as well). Fists would end up staying clenched for a while.
However the end result is that I have never had any issue striking someone, something hard, never actually broken a bone in my life (needing a cast), survived receiving strikes from stronger, bigger opponents etc. Also a bonus is that quite often when others strike me, they tend to hurt themselves hitting me. Especially when I check kicks or block with my forearms.
All that being said, as extreme as my dad used to be, recovery is vital! We wouldn't do all this conditioning non-stop. There would always be a recovery period when we'd work in something else entirely.
@@ChrisKsan thank you my brother for the information and take care of yourself
@@ChrisKsan if you would advise someone starting from scratch would you say do this for how long and how many times a week, unfortunately don’t have a bag at home was going to start with the stick
@@PLSX_Volatile For someone really starting from scratch, if I'm going to assume someone who doesn't train regularly and isn't quite fit, I'd recommend to start a routine of running first. At least 15, 20mins run per day, do some jumping jack's combinations, squats. The impacts from running, jumping and the loading of the legs promote good bone density and good combined with squats variations (own body weight), good muscle structure. All of this needs to be paired with decently balanced diet and proper rest for optimal results. After physical and mental effort the body always needs to rest in order to heal from the strain.
Once fit, start rolling a piece of broomstick on your shins to condition your skin and surface nerves. Roll it, rub it, until one day (varies for every person) it becomes manageable or even comfortable. Depending on your pain tolerance, at any point of this stage, you can also start to lightly hit your shins with a stick, even a broom stick. Do this regularly, repeatedly, daily. Again, allow for proper sleep to recover and if you ever overdo it, hurts when using your leg, putting weight on it, carrying stuff, going up the stairs, dial it back for at least a week or stop the conditioning altogether for at least a week. Bones need to heal too.
Now if you don't have a bag, there's several things you can do:
Buy, get an old SH tire, fix it in place somewhere you can strike it. At first, you can pad it with some cloth until your skin and muscles get used to impacts, then you can strike it without padding. Don't need to go overboard, no need for maximum power right off the bat. The key to the whole process is consistency and rest. Light to moderate strikes in sets, daily.
Also as a tip: whenever you are bored, stressed or whatever, find a stick and tap on your shins.
When you feel more comfortable with it all, you can go to the woods or gather some sticks and boards and challenge yourself to brake them on your shins. Do this once a month. Again, consistency and rest are key. Mess up the rest or the diet, overdo it and you can hurt yourself unnecessarily.
The accountant fun fact. I’m a visual effects artist and I added the bruising and redness to Ben afflecks shin in that scene lol. He ain’t no wonderboy!
Damn really? Loved that movie thought that scene when hes smacking his shins with the rolling pin was mint
Ennis lol yep! I also remember the director had me dial back on the amount of redness I did the first time haha I guess the character wasn’t as hardcore as I thought he was. Was a fun movie to work on though. Also the bruising on his face when he fights his brother at the end. I also did that :) the makeup sucked.
James Webster nice!!!! I like that movie a lot
cool story
No actually
James Webster yep the accountant it is! That’s awesome man!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
3:40 I don’t think my shins will get red
(Black Joke)

Thankyou for being so humble Stephen, you're an inspiration to us all that are true followers of your philosophy
Tony Ferguson The type of Guy to jump out of a plane with out a parachute to condition his Luck
😂😂😂
Lmao
Cody gabrant: I conditioned my shin but forgot about the chin
*Garbrandt
@Notification Bell Imo garbrandt gets ko'd whether dillashaw juiced or not.
the dude took the same hook 3 times in a row and got ko’d bruh
Zimmer8000 that part was crazy to me 😂 he made no adjustments at all and just took it until he got knocked out
@Mike '2blac' Perry he got ko'd by a black dude before the ufc.i dont remember his name.
Did this 30 something year old man just say dadgummit? Yes he did, and it’s why love him! The embodiment of the warrior, not looking for violence but not afraid of it, relishing the danger as a way of testing and finding out about himself. A true artist who views his art as the ultimate form of self realization and expression. Thanks Wonderboy!
Wonderboy one of the best personalities, love this dude
imagine having wonder boy as your PE teacher!
i got sort of a PE teacher vibe from him here
Id be a beast if i had him as a p.e teacher and not the pussies i had growing up
My first shin to knee I thought my leg broke lol
yeah it sucks lol
Absolutely
Elbow is pretty bad lol

The movie is “The Accountant” with Ben Affleck!
Matthew Johnson yes
As soon as I saw the wooden dowel that's what I thought of lol
yea it was funny, Ben Affleck conditioning his shins like that and I supposed to believe he does it every day, yet... kick thrown in the movie = 0
Learning to ding my shins is the best piece of advice I've ever gotten 🙌
Thank you I'm struggling with this in camp right at this moment. You remind that as fighters we still aren't super human, unfortunately.
Watches Wonderboy once...25 mins later ends up in the emergency room with a broken foot!!!
The accountant is the name of the movie
Exactly, i thought of Ben Affleck right away when he started to hit his shin using that piece of wood lol
Love that movie
Thanks Stephen, just what I needed to show my students.
Chris needed to watch this video when it was released
Tony unconditions his shins to make the fight fair
7:23 My shins hurt just by looking at this
The noise it's making is like nails on chalkboard for me it's that thudding sound 🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
@Rishi Monty so u cant control pain 🤣
@Rishi Monty if u cant handle taping on ur shin, you def cant control pain🤣
Bro fr
Getting tips from one of my favorite fighters is amazing. I hope I can be like you one day
Was so bored this morning and decided to watch some of my favourite MMA fights and found wonderboy and now I’m obsessed 😂 how have I only found him now, what a great fighter and seems to be a sweetheart lol
i know right
I’ve been training karate since I was 12. It’s really a privilege to have these lessons from one of the world’s best.
I absolutely love that you're reading the comments and making videos accordingly. I knew you would teach me something knew but i really wasn't expecting you to do the same thing to your shins as people do their cricket bats. Keep making great videos Wonderboy, you have earned my subscription.
Stephen you are literally my favorite fighter ever
Who here after the weidman vs uriah hall fight?
I was ready to puke after the crute fight tbh (need to google "how to condition your calf nerves")
Mee😂😂😭😭😭

Cant wait to see this guy fight again love his style
your awesome Stephen, a credit to the MMA community and a pleseant dude! God bless
I can't wait to meet Stephen in heaven. I mean, if I'm not busy following Jesus around everywhere for the first 1,000 years , I'll definitely be kicking it with Wonderboy. Colossal fan of yours Stephen.
why not meet him now he is alive lol not knocking your beliefs but dont let it distract from things to do before you pass..
@@vinniecousinofvito6401 good point, that is a massive goal in life. To meet some of my favorite fighters and see a real ppv event live
Not if you associate Jesus Christ or anything or anyone as a god or a part of God with God as a god or parent or child or associate or worship anythinfg besides God or denies God's existence, you wont meet Jesus Christ. 100% sure except as an opponent against the perpetrators and their perpetrated lies by them over him his mother and God Almighty. Are you gonna be one of the perpetrators or are you gonna be one of the rectifiers and affirmers and followers of the true teachings of Jesus Christ?
Do you believe Jesus submitted his will entirely to the Will of God, His Creator and creator of all or Not?
Follow and believe in the religion that Jesus himself followed or are you just wasting life wishful thinking on meeting him for 100000 years and whatever. Do ypu really care for Jesus and for meeting him or are you just talking out of wishful uncorroborated assumptions?
No its all wishful assumption when you associate Jesus or anything or anyone as a god or a part of God with God or denies God's existence you will meet him ??? The facts stand against this mythological notion.
This exact notion is precisely what he was up against and spent his whole ministry service fighting it during the time he was working with the lost sheep of Israel to remind them of taking none other than God as their God and to worship only Him associating no other thing with God as god or lesser god or even any image with God and to do righteous deeds as he was doing them to attain success.
Follow certainty. for truth is certainty is reality is absolute , everything else is conjecture assumption relative ...
@@TheMercifulAndJust I believe your response is well intentioned.
Dr. Yangus Bottom Tooth dude that was possibly the nicest thing I've heard anyone say to someone
This is awsome. What a great guy. Awsome conditioning and hard work, the essence of a true martial artist.
I'm just loving this guy 💪
Thanks wonderboy, I need to throw my kicks with reckless abandonment... looking forward to the side kick video my man, much love from the uk
that is not what conditioning is for it is so it doesn't break if checked or stance and technique is compromised by fatigue or any other reasons not for reckless abandonment, silly..
Brotha Wiz have you ever kicked someone’s leg before? It fucking hurts.
Brotha Wiz I feel ya brother, but I was just copying what Stephen literally said in this video
I always found you grow to enjoy the pain of shin conditioning
Best idea ever Wonderboy and his own chanel awsoke!

10 minutes and 34 seconds of why Wonderboy is a champion. 🏆
I remember being a TKD Black Belt in the early '80s, I remember going into the Muay Thai world of kickboxing. It was really foreign to a lot of us Americans. Wow, it was so strange for me, but I learned to love it. I often wonder how I would have done in today's mix martial arts world. I had the concept of mix martial arts in 1980 after several years of TKD I went into boxing and a few years later traditional jujitsu and later Muay Thai. Initially, my desire was not to learn for sport but to be prepared for any situation in a real street fight. Those skills came in a few years later when I put the gloves down and became a cop. There is no stress like the stress of fighting for your own service weapon. Thanks for the video it brought make memories. I sometimes wish I was in your generation. I remember the days of $50.00 buck :-)
Thanks for sharing your story, some cops give the job a bad name but thanks for serving in the force and I'm glad your techniques kept you safe. I'm sure you woulda been one of the best of your era had UFC been around.
If you ever get the urge to compete, light sparring might satisfy that
@@blackout.X , thank you for your kind comments. I am long retired, but I am grieved whenever I see men & and women in uniform dishonor their badge and fail their citizens. I took my oath to heart to protect and serve. I often looked for homeless people not to harass them but to buy them food. I use to love the looks on their faces when I approached them in their sleeping quarters. Officer, I am about to leave, I would tell them I am not here for that, are you hungry. I miss those days, but I am also very grateful for my martial arts training. When it was time to go into dangerous situations, I knew the fear of danger from my days of fighting in competitions and having champions as teammates. My Muay Thai training really helped me. A leg kicked looked a lot better in the eyes of the public than a head kick. Plus a leg kick was guaranteed to end the fight quickly. A street fighter never felt a leg kick with bad intentions. They are ready to be cuffed after that deal. Are you a marathon running, I have a daughter who loves to run. She actually ran the route of the first marathon in Greece a couple of years ago. I was going to train a few MMA fighters in striking a few years ago, mainly in the art of kicking. Thompson has shown that very few have an answer to high-level kicks. Sadly, my health prohibited this venture.
@@blackout.X , I do get the urge to compete, but I have some serious medical conditions from an on the job injury that would prohibit light sparring. I have a few friends former champions and competitors who are still working out, I miss it and wish I could join them. But, the injury I endured, I would do over it was dealing with trying to save the lives of kids. Your words lifted me up today, I have had a rough medical week. Thanks for the smile :-)
Are you a Freemason?
@@Eagle1349 Did any of your TKD skills translate well into Muay Thai? I'd like to start kickboxing but my former TKD gave me this annoying habit of kicking with the instep.
This is great training for MMA, it builds bone density and pain tolerance! 🙌
I wonder would it help with other bones? I have knee issues and might give it a try.
Master Bates Definitely not good for knees, cus they are more complex than just bones. Best way to help ur knees are warm ups, stretches and range of motion exercise
@@masterbates6463 Buy some rubber bands and start doing hip strengthening exercises, it did wonders for my knees. Strong hips will keep your knees in better alignment and take some of the load off of them in all activities, sports or otherwise.
@@MrRazmut Thanks for the advice, Penguin. The problem is my knee was basically destroyed in an accident 5 years ago so I'm trying to find creative ways to improve my condition. I'll do anything to avoid horrible surgery.
The Accountant
You're great brother 👊
Thanks for the knowledge.
✌🏽
Love the video. Appreciate the tips
I think conditioning is like the most important part of martial arts. I played football for a few years as a defensive lineman and then a linebacker after I slimmed down. My neck and skull were used to high impacts so when I sparred against an amateur light heavyweight in Muay Thai, I got kicked in the head as I was ducking a punch and it snapped me back to when I played ball. It was so familiar. My Head started pounding and I was buzzing in my knees but it made me focus and I finished out the round with the guy against the ropes. I got teep kicked in the guts and that honestly hurt 10x worse than the headkick because I wasn’t conditioned to take body shots. Will definitely work on conditioning my shins.
That head that starts pounding is cumulating permanent brain damage. Take that a lot and you'll get crippling CTE which leaves you dumb like down syndrome after your 60s, like all older fighters and football players in head bump positions
Thanks man I've recently started dunk training for basketball and I think the amount of force that I'm using to jump is causing shin splints and making my shins in general feel weak to touch and stuff so I'm gonna use your technique especially the last one to strengthen then up real good and hey I'm not a fighter but I guess if I have to throw kick at some point I'll be ready 😄👍🦵🧹
Check out Knees over toes guy, brother
I am literally watching this BECAUSE I watched The Accountant again while I was completing my cardio.
Thanks now I can train obsessively over something else !
Hes referencing The Accountant! Its my favorite movie of all time and the whole time he was doing that I kept thinking of it. So funny. I love this guy!
Thank you! This is as very helpful. I thought I was being dramatic about how bad the pain was when I was throwing kicks but now it makes sense, conditioning.
Are we ignoring how Stephen says “Cement” hahahahah
See ment?

Sea-meant
Thank you!!!!😂
thank you sir!!! i trust pros like you sir. Im a big fan of yours and I'm new subscriber. thank you for sharing this. I will use this to condition my shin
The Accountant. Good movie. It would be cool if there was a sequel bc they left it perfectly open to have a part 2.
Started watching this after seeing what happened to Weidman.
Hahaha same here brotha
I cought the Accountant refrence instantly, good refrence.
Go get some Wonderboy merch he says! 😭 Love the enthusiasm probably gonna buy some now
You rock bro natural teacher.
I'm pretty sure the movie you're talking about is The Accountant
I will love to see how is your cardio training, specialy how you run hills :D
You really help people uner stand the little thing thanks for that everyone else makes you pay for this kind of info
Love it! Thanks this vid Stephen!
The accountant 😂 and while watching this I’m conditioning my shins!
I put shampoo on my head. Then I put conditioner on my shins after. Rubbing it on with a bit of 4 by 2. Worst thing about it, is the water goes everywhere.
Awesome vid and great shih training tips! Thanks!
This video got recommended the day after I got kneed in the shin when my buddy went for a roundhouse and I had my crane up. Very helpful thx m8
Used to play Lacrosse so I thought my shins would be strong due to all the years getting whacked but I was so wrong. Recently started Muay Thai and I realized how weak my shins r cuz I’ve never thrown a kick in my life until this point. Appreciate the tips I’m for sure going implement them into my training.
Hope your journey is going well! From lacrosse to muay thai is really cool! Your footwork is going to be very good!
I learned the hard way not to just start off by hitting it on a pole. I did it everyday until it got unbearable and it hurt to walk for a couple of days. It’s been about a week since that happened and now that it’s healed I will do it the smart way lol. Thanks for making this video
The old tony way
The accountant! Hilarious that I’m watching that right now when you talked about that scene with him and the loud noises and flashing lights. Great movie.
Conditioned shins are also amazing when moving furniture and for jobs where you can use leg contact for mechanical advantage.
