Taking punches to the stomach?

[hiimbored]

Hey, I haven't started any Muay Thai training or anything but I heard on a website that it is good to hang from a pull-up bar and have somebody punch you in the stomach to learn how to take hits. Is this good to do to condition myself? Thanks!

Possibly.. but id suggest you build up your abs with crunchs and so forth then move on to that.

If you need somebody to come to your house and punch you......while you hang upside down..... I'm available

No, that would be dumb. Join a gym and learn to spar - you'll get hit plenty and you'll learn how to avoid taking hits while you're at it.




However, I also could use some practice hitting people who hang from the ceiling, so call me too.
