The boxer's secret: If you are a thin skinned or bleeder type (on your face), make a solution of vinegar and rock salt and apply the solution to your face, concentrating on your checkbones and area around your eyes. In time, your face will take on a leathery apperance as well as becoming impervious to cuts. Disscontinuation of the solution will return your face to normal.
Develop muay thai shins that won't scream in pain every time they're smacked against something.
Conditioning tougher hands, all parts like the knuckles, fingertips, knife hand.
Making your hands even deadlier: How do you do this? Just look at a little idea from silat. . . using your fingernails. Some silat practioners grow their fingernails longer to claw, tear, and jab at their opponent. Artificial iron nails that were dipped in poison were once worn and used to tear and stab like knives. Although some may not want to grow long nails on there index, middle, ring, or little finger because it intefers with making a tight fist, one can still grow out their thumbnail. This nail can stab an opponent's temple, eye, throat, underside of jaw, or any other soft part available.
