"Hip" is one of the three major joints of human lower limbs and the root of the three major joints of lower limbs. Hip joint is an important hinge connecting waist and leg. Hip skills are very effective. The day of boxing: "It's now or never, the situation is overwhelming, the body is scattered, and the disease is sought after by the waist and legs." The key to the flexibility of waist and legs is to practice the hip joint well. Therefore, experienced boxers all say that "the opportunity should be waist and buttocks." The function of hip is: it can adjust the coordination of upper and lower limbs, and it is the main checkpoint of qi movement, the source of explosive power, the bearer of weight and the weapon of technical attack.

How to grasp the hip joint?

First, study the relationship between hip joint and other joints.

Practicing Tai Ji Chuan requires hip opening, round support, virtual support and virtual spirit, which is essentially a requirement for hip. If you want to open your crotch, the crotch root must be loose. The crotch won't open, and it's caught in the middle of people. It can neither bear heavy weight nor lower its center of gravity. The upper and lower limbs will inevitably become dull, especially for the rotation of the waist shaft, which will affect the explosive force. In order to make the waist and buttocks rotate in harmony, it needs to collapse, and the joints of the spine are loose. Relax the abdominal machine under the ribs and let the weight fall on the hip bone. When exercising, as long as you pay attention to the rotation of your hips, you can drive the rotation of your waist. The external buckle of lower limbs depends entirely on the loosening of hip joint, and the flexibility of upper and lower limbs depends entirely on the strap of hip. There are many parallel rotations of waist and buttocks in boxing potential, which produce strength when the rotation speed of hips is accelerated. The induced force only needs to be released and avoided.

As the saying goes, "There is a spring force under the crotch, and a brainwave makes it difficult for a bird to fly." It seems that the emphasis on crotch strength is actually the emphasis on crotch rotation. As long as you practice the looseness and roundness of your crotch for a long time, you will fly faster than a bird. Hip-bashing and hip-bashing are directly used techniques. Hip training needs dialectical training of "closing hips" and "spreading hips". The purpose of closing the buttocks is to reorganize the internal qi. Only the static convergence of buttocks and the action of lifting anus and supporting abdomen can make qi sink into the abdomen.

It's like wrapping your pelvis with your hips and holding up your lower abdomen with your hips. It is necessary to organically combine the requirements of hip-closing, waist-collapsing, hip-loosening, knee-bending, crotch-opening, round crotch and anal-lifting, so as to improve this kung fu. The attack and defense function of hip joint has been practiced, and the attack and defense of left hip, right hip or total hip should be used according to the situation. Hip blows are used to deal with enemies behind. Step forward, put your hips close to your opponent's abdomen, bend over and pick them up by hand, so that your opponent will fall behind me for a short time, such as "dodging back", "twisting the gun" and "punching step by step". Hips can also sit on the hips or knees of the enemy behind them, making them fall to the ground in pain. When using it, you should pay attention to sharp turns, slow firing, accurate power point, fast speed and proper coordination. Remember to close it immediately after firing to keep the internal gas reunion. Make good use of your leg joints, it depends on your hip root. The method of winding silk in the crotch to promote qi circulation is: reverse winding silk to urge knees, knees to promote feet, and exhaling force; Wrap the silk, hips and knees, knees and feet, breathe in and get power.
