Arm shots.. do they do any good?

[Alpha13]

My friend and I play this arm shots game (punching each other in the arms) because we think it will toughen us up against pain (neither one of us boxes) Do you guys think doing this will numb us to pain like we want, or are we just punching each other for no reason?

Yeah, if you're Miguel Cotto punchin Branco lol..

Didn't Branco go down after gettin hit in the arm?

Cotto hit Branco's shoulder repeatedly until it actually got dislocated, Branco couldn't go on.

So I guess the answers yeah, lol you can **** a guys arm up..

Yes and no. Getting punched in the arm repeatedly acclimates you to the pain, thus your mind will interpret it as no big deal but it will not numb the pain in the same sense as a muay thai fighter kicking banana trees to numb his shins. The reason the shins get numbed is the average person only has a thin layer of skin on their shin without that many pain receptors then bone. But in muay thai training they slowly kill the pain receptors in the shins...then eventually have leg muscle grow over the shin bone. Doesnt exactly work the same way in the arms as there is no way you can kill all the pain receptors in your arms without damaging your forearm/bicep/tricep muscles. So in a sense you are hitting yourselves for no reason.
