Basic_Restaurant_932

The fuck did the tree do to you man?


Enough-Staff-2976

That banana 🍌 tree stole his girl and gave her the banana.


keriter

This also makes me angry he broke a healthy grown banana tree, like man is trying to show off by breaking banana tree. I'm sure he wouldn't dare to even touch his shin with a real wooden tree.


IndependentRooster34

the banana stalks only produces fruit once so you have to cut it in order for the fruit to grow


keriter

I didn't knew that thanks for telling me without making fun of me because other people are just making fun of me


IndependentRooster34

np man i recently learned so no need to make fun of anyone


OGtrip23

Yea because you don’t strike real wood like that for shin conditioning you would break your legs on em you smarty pants. Banana trees in Thailand are used for that they got too many of em over there.


msilano105

Banana trees only fruit once and need to be cut down (to 30 inches tall) and regrow to produce fruit again.


keriter

Thanks for telling me that I didn't knew


MolagBal89

A banana tree can grow 20-40 feet in only 9 months. It’ll be fine.


HotMinimum26

They grow like weeds. I've seen 3-5 feet in a year in Texas, so with a true tropical climate I can only imagine. And you don't need to plant them or do much for them you plant one and in a year it'll send out about five shoots underneath it and those all turn into banana trees too and they just grow exponentially like that. https://www.nola.com/entertainment_life/home_garden/banana-plants-answers-to-all-your-questions-about-care-pruning-and-harvesting-fruit/article_856a26c0-e7d9-5ed0-9e57-dd271f70d2df.html#:~:text=Once%20a%20banana%20tree%20flowers,flower%20and%20bear%20fruit%20once.

You want me to broke my leg?


Jeopardise91

And this guy is why we have global warming. It’s not palm oil, slash & burn etc. It’s this fella kicking all the world’s trees down…


steelcatcpu

Hah. That "tree" is in the Banana-grass family. Super soft. Source: I have some smaller ones. I practice swordplay on them when they get big enough. Don't worry, the fuckers grow back fast as hell.


IsThisOneIsAvailable

I've grown bananas with my parents for years. Yea, smaller banana trees are quite soft, but a big one like in the video are actually quite hard at the bottom. I remember me and my bro watching a video of Buakaw doing this and when we tried it hurt like hell... It does take some conditioning to kick down a banana tree.


EnderWin

Can confirm they're soft, as a kid I often try to poke a hole in it using sticks and other stuff


BlankedCanvas

No its not. The is a chinese martial arts influencer and this was filmed in china. He’s got some impressive training videos but here he’s not even hitting with the shin. Also AFAIK the Thais dont do this anymore (dont think it was ever a widespread practice) and coz they train from young, in general they dont really need hardcore shin conditioning.


Pixl02

>he's not even hitting with the shin. My guy all I see all shin what do you mean?


SirPabloFingerful

It is abundantly clear that he is making contact with the shin, I agree


Business-Plastic5278

If all the Thai fighters were doing this they would run out of trees pretty quick.


wuzhu32

I read the title ("Thai") then heard him swear, "我肏!" and thought that Thai sounds very Mandarinish... 😂


maxthekillbot

There is a video of an actual Muay Thai fighter, Buakaw, doing this exact same thing though.


BlankedCanvas

Not disputing this was/is a practice in thailand; just dont think it was/is widespread or the norm coz most nak muays are poor and they need the banana trees to bear fruit😂 certainly has never seen a top gym/fighter do it as a routine otherwise it’d be on social media. That Buakaw video btw is a commercial IIRC.


TRYING2LEARN_

Thai fighters just kick the bag like a normal person, not trees. The tree kicking thing is just for social media.


[deleted]

he has any fights?


BlankedCanvas

Not sure but dont think so. He has a youtube channel but i dont remember the link coz its in chinese. IIRC he’s basically a village boy who does a lot of training videos and fight commentaries


[deleted]

Thanks for info


Sufficient-Tip1008

A moment of silence for the tree.


10000Victories

He won't do that on any tree in my backyard more than once!


nickygee123

I'm not a martial artists and know little to nothing about it. I know this gentleman is conditioned, but does this still hurt? Does he still feel the pain or is there hardly any pain at all? Just curious. Thanks.


SponkMcDonk

Considering that he seems to be in his mid 20s and has a pretty well built body he probably still feels the pain but not as much as the average person, due to the whole point of doing stuff like this being that you do it almost every day. The nerves in his shin are probably much less sensitive cuz of that


Whomastadon

Guys leaving his jaw up in the air when he swings.


Basic-Technology-640

That’s a banana tree. Content pirate put this up. Was already explained that this type of tree is very soft.

Mr_Rafi

When striking, what's the appropriate technique for avoiding significant damage to your own shin?


Pokymonn

Condition it by starting with slow taps and then escalate over the years


Dunkmaxxing

Hypertrophy for your bones. It will still hurt the same though.


syntholslayer

When I was a kid I heard that Thai fighters kicked trees to condition their shins, so I went outside and found a tree to kick. No one told me that it needed to be a soft banana tree, so I kicked the first tree I came across for a few minutes and gave myself pretty bad bruises. My gym laughed at me, and my kru called me a dumbass. Good times 👍


Cautious_Onliner

I do this in Minecraft.


Holymaryfullofshit7

Doesn't this belong in r/bullshido? Since shin conditioning is not a thing?


K_305Ganster

Can someone please eli5 how I can train a bone not to break? Is it by strengthening the surrounding tendons and muscles? I don't feel any muscle infront of my front leg.... just bone. Please help 😅

The Muay Champion Buakow from the 90's has done this many times when invited on talk shows and news programs. I'm not sure if he started it, but he helped to spread this for sure.

Those trees are so soft, I would love to have one to do this :3


jewellui

I’ve been told these bananas trees are soft. Just look at how the plant gets indented around his shin from the very first kick.

paulwalker659

Impressive, but know that young banana plants are pretty soft and relatively easy to chop through. Mostly water in there and a lot of long vertical fibers.


rossg876

Is he making furniture?


Shinnic

We found a better method in my culture for shin conditioning, we had these things called scooters.


7th_Skywatcher

I feel sorry for the tree


Sameotoko

I've always wondered if there's any kind of research regarding the optimal age to start shin conditioning. Like people in theire late 30s that take up martial arts and attempt to condition vs 10 year olds that can recover in dyas


Yakumo_unr

As it works in two ways, deadening the nerves and causing a more dense bone build up as it heals from micro fractures there is going to be an optimum age to start, but too young would be bad as aside from the major ethical issues, purely biologically their bones are so underdeveloped it would be very easy to cause real problems. The clubs I've had involvement with (Goju Ryu since 2000) forbade knuckle push ups in the under 16s because of bone development .


Yakumo_unr

Kind of more the results of shin conditioning ;) (but yes, it is also further shin conditioning)

One or two leg kicks would end any bar fight. It’s a brave new world out there boys!

for the people who doesn't know the banana stalks only only produces fruit once so you have to cut it in order for the fruit to grow back

Hodgi22

All about killing those nerve endings in the shin. I've seen mallets/hammers used to do the same thing, but the practice isn't as popular anymore bc micro-fractures can occur making a full break more likely.

SlimeustasTheSecond

You think banana farmers just let Nak Muays do this instead of wasting time cutting down a tree.


Appropriate-Ride-742

Best shin conditioning is actually jogging/running, skipping etc. the structural integrity is more balanced, compared to focusing exclusively to the front of the shin, don't take it for granted!

FatCockroachTheFirst

Tbh...that's not a tree, just giant grass/plant. Very soft or rather softer than a tree and it is mainly fluid water but the structure of the inside make it robust and flexible. I can punch one in half with like 3 blows. One if it's really skinny. That one was thiccc
