Muay Thai is not trying "to kick their legs". the low kick to the lower thigh is aimed at the common peroneal nerve which will short circuit after a few blows and cause temporary paralysis in the leg. has nothing to do with conditioning. usually takes 2-3 shots... and they don't even have to be really hard.
