Loyalty is all over the sky, and the clouds are immortal. When we practice boxing, skill is important, but what is more important is mental integrity. People take a breath of life, don't ask if it's okay, first say if you dare. You can defeat me, but you can never make me bow my head, this is a Chinese man.
The dragon is at the bottom of the sea, and the tiger is hidden in the mountains. People with deep internal strength will be very soft and look very plain, but when they explode, the power is extremely terrifying. Don't be deceived by the surface, he can become a master, and his experience must be beyond ordinary people. Learning to respect and being humble is the beginning of improvement.
Tai Chi is a philosophical boxing, and its wisdom has been passed down for thousands of years. Tai Chi is a kind of boxing, through the mutual change of yin and yang, the mutual benefit of growth and decline, the total balance, and harmonious resonance, to achieve the purpose of regulating the body and mind, slowing down aging, and creating a virtuous circle. Practicing boxing can also improve consciousness and develop the wisdom of life.
Looking up at the sky, the clouds are varied, all caused by changes in air currents. The same is true for boxing, where internal strength is like airflow, which is invisible, but internal movement can be controlled. The soft strength must be fluid, through internal pressure and drumming, the spine is urged, and the muscles and bones are spiraling, so that the body flows, so there is internal strength.
Don't make yourself tired when it comes to boxing. Every time you practice boxing, you should be happy physically and mentally, and your body should feel transparent. If a set of punches is really what you want, then it must be very cool to practice, and the more you practice, the more addictive it is, it is a good thing. If you are not happy and feel bored when you practice, it means that you have not yet obtained the Fa.
This kind of strength is not only the expansion of muscles and bones, but also the fluid. You practice the starting style, when you start the style, the mind pays attention to the lower abdomen, the dantian is easy to tighten a few times, as the arm is raised, the dantian is like a ball, rolling forward a circle, driving the fascia of the abdominal cavity wall, and also rolling forward like a balloon.
Not only tai chi, but all boxing techniques, practiced to the advanced stage, are membrane strength exercises. In particular, the fascia of the cavity wall is like a balloon, and the internal pressure is the internal qi. The fascia of the cavity wall is very large, not only in the abdomen, chest and pelvis, but also in the fascia. The highest stage of tendon stretching is film rolling.
When we box, sometimes two ends, sometimes in the middle, sometimes three-dimensional, sometimes roller spinning, in the final analysis, are stretching tendons and pulling bones, after a few years of practice, the outer ring is slowly smaller, the external movement is also smaller, the inner cavity wall rotation, began to become the master. The root of the flow of internal strength is the movement of membrane strength.
Three-dimensional strength, just like a net, put a ball in the net pocket, the ball or roll, or move, or bounce, will affect the entire net pocket movement. Relax the whole body, punch with the strength of the cavity, to pull the acupuncture points around the body, the opening and closing of the acupuncture points can stimulate the fascia to be strong. Only by opening and closing the acupuncture points can the tiny tendons be removed, and the entire fascia can be connected in series to produce a sense of flow.
The relaxation of the whole body is to better open up, open all the tricks, form a soft mesh traction, and then exercise the cavity wall muscles, and then cooperate with the movement of the limbs and muscles, over time, the dynamics penetrate deep into the body, which will act on the fascia and form a mesh membrane force. It's good to have a reticular fluctuation sensation in the body.
When the master punches, the abdominal membrane is as strong as water, constantly drumming and fluctuating, urging the entire back, and there will also be an undercurrent, like a drumming big net. The so-called air sticking to the back is not a hunched back, but an internal cavity to urge the back, and use the fascia of the inner cavity to rub the back and waist. The essence of air sticking to the back is also the flow of the cavity membrane. That's it for today. Taiji Futu original article, thank you for your attention!
