This is the product of "Iron body training". When you train progressively to take a blow an area of the body, over time your body toughens and pain diminishes.

Blows to the chest and stomach can be tolerated by exhaling completely just as the blow arrives.

Think about tightening your thighs, and then punching it. It doesn't hurt as much as if they weren't tightened.

There are a number of ways to do this and usually not only one, but several of these techniques are employed at once. 1) stregnthen your muscles. 2) breathing breathing out while absorbing a hit always reduces the pain 3) moving in, if you reduce the time and legnth someone hits you they cant build up momentum power 4) physcical conditioning, if you take hits to your abdominal region quite often, your abdominal muscles will learn to react before the brunt of the force and tighten on impact 5) mental conditioning part of learning focus is to block out pain or redirect it.
