Xingyiquan is the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors. During the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, many Wushu experts and health experts came from Xingyiquan. During the Republic of China, the government included the boxing and swordsmanship of Xingyiquan in the military curriculum, and Xingyiquan was taught in martial arts museums and schools all over the country, which showed that Xingyiquan had a certain mass base and was a kind of boxing with high efficiency, quick effect, strong popularity and suitable for the public to learn. Xingyiquan lovers will improve obviously as long as they can find suitable teachers and study hard.
First, the principle of health preservation
Take five elements boxing of Xingyiquan as an example. Based on the principle of "Yin-Yang and Five Elements" and five elements boxing's movements, it exercises and strengthens the "five internal organs" of the human body (clearing the lungs with fists; Drill fist to tonify kidney; Collapse fist and soothe the liver; Cannon boxing nourishes the heart; On the premise of balancing the yin and yang of viscera, it is important to nourish yin, that is, to strengthen the yin essence and qi and blood of viscera, and effectively prevent and treat various diseases caused by yin deficiency and deficiency of qi and blood.
Split fist
As the saying goes, "fist is like an axe, it belongs to gold" and "it is connected with the lungs inside and the nose outside, and it is fur".
Body-building function of the double boxing: clearing lung qi, moistening fur, and effectively preventing and treating respiratory diseases (cough, shortness of breath, tracheitis, rhinitis, sore throat, etc. ), rough skin and hair loss caused by lung yin deficiency and lung yang deficiency.
Drill fist
As the saying goes: "The shape of drilling fist is like electricity, like lightning, which belongs to water", "It is connected with the kidney inside and the ear outside, and it is a bone".
Fitness effect of drilling fist: strengthening kidney and fixing essence, effectively preventing and treating male and gynecological diseases, backache and leg weakness, osteoporosis, tinnitus and edema caused by kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency.
Folding boxing
As the saying goes, "a fist is shaped like an arrow and belongs to wood", "it is connected with the liver inside and the eye outside, and it is a tendon".
Body-building efficacy: soothing the liver, improving eyesight, strengthening muscles and strengthening the body, and effectively preventing and treating chronic liver diseases (hepatitis, fatty liver, etc.). ), eye diseases, muscle contracture.
Cannon boxing
As the saying goes, "the shape of artillery boxing belongs to fire" and "the inner heart, the outer tongue, is blood".
The fitness effect of cannon boxing: nourishing the heart, calming the nerves, enriching blood and improving intelligence, effectively preventing and treating various diseases such as heart disease, anemia, insomnia and forgetfulness.
Horizontal boxing
As the saying goes, "the shape of the horizontal fist belongs to the soil", "the spleen is connected inside, the interface is outside, and the muscle is inside".
Fitness effect of Hengquan: strengthening the spleen and stomach, strengthening the body, and effectively preventing and treating various digestive system diseases and muscle atrophy.
Second, the body has changed itself to some extent.
On the one hand, the cultivation of Xingyiquan has changed people's physical characteristics, on the other hand, it can also change people's hearts: Nuo Nuo, petty, indecisive and other words can't be found in the dictionary of Xingyiquan practitioners, because Xingyiquan can refine people's masculinity, integrity and integrity, make people more determined, tenacious, open and generous, and has a great role in self-cultivation.
1, denser bones:
Boxing on a pile can make your bones harder, denser and more single-minded. Xingyiquan practitioners rarely suffer from osteoporosis, but their weight is surprisingly heavy-because the proportion of bones is much larger than that of ordinary people.
2. Longer tendons:
Pulling out bones by stretching tendons can make your ligaments and fascia tough and elastic, and stretch them longer accordingly-"lifting fascia" makes your joints and limbs more flexible-which is also one of the so-called "rigidities".
3, the skin is smoother:
As long as you practice internal breathing, your skin will become tender, smooth and elastic. The reason may be that the capillaries of your skin participate in the breathing movement and the flow of blood between your skin and flesh, which stimulates sweat glands.
4, the meat is soft:
Waijia Boxing pursues (bone firmness) hard meat and developed heart knot. Xingyiquan, on the other hand, lengthens your muscles by "boring", making them close to tendons and more resilient and elastic-this is called "softness" (but once hit, it is as hard as iron).
5, change the "four tips":
The whole hair is elastic, especially the eyebrows are thick, which generally grow long "longevity eyebrows"; Teeth are strong, teeth are rarely missing, and nails become tough and thick-all because "four tips are together".
Third, how can we practice Xingyiquan?
Xingyiquan is one of the four famous fists in China. Its movements are simple and practical, without fancy movements. Not limited by venue size, clothing, age, etc. Men, women and children can practice. The effects of health preservation and martial arts are very obvious. Although the movements of Xingyiquan are easy to learn, they are difficult to learn. Many ancient masters have been exploring the mystery of Xingyiquan all their lives. If you want to learn and practice Xingyiquan well, the following conditions are essential.
1. Practitioners must really like Xingyiquan. There is a saying that hobbies are the best teachers. Only hobbies can be actively pursued and explored. People who don't like and like from the heart, no matter how good the conditions are, will never learn well.
2. Be taught by a truly understanding and non-conservative teacher. For beginners of Xingyiquan, teachers are very important.
3. If you want to practice Xingyiquan well, you need enough time to practice and a certain economic foundation. If likes and hobbies are the foundation and finding a master is the premise, then time is the core of a practitioner. Kung fu is time, and the effect of practicing one hour of kung fu a day is definitely different from that of practicing four hours a day. Some adults are married and have children, some need to support the elderly, and some need to work. If you spend time practicing martial arts, it is difficult for ordinary people to do it. Therefore, it is the truth that "the poor are poor in literature and wealth". First of all, Wushu should ensure the absorption of nutrients in the body. People who practice martial arts generally eat a lot. How can a person who can't even eat at home have the mind to practice martial arts? Secondly, to practice martial arts, you should learn from Gaoyou. In ancient times, people who had the money to learn martial arts invited teachers to their own homes to support them. Every month, they had to "tie up" their teachers and buy martial arts equipment. After artistic accomplishment, you need to go out to visit relatives and friends. People need money to eat and feed horses. Therefore, most of the people who achieved martial arts in ancient times were rich children.
4. If you want to practice Xingyiquan well, you must have certain talent and understanding. Talent and understanding are the keys to practicing the sublimation of Xingyiquan, both of which are very important. Some people learn it after watching the teacher perform the action once, while others can't learn it after learning it ten times. This is the talent. Teachers generally prefer students with better talents because they don't need so much effort to teach. Talent and hard work make it easier to succeed; It doesn't matter if your talent is bad, as long as you are willing to work hard and practice more, you can make up for it. If others practice once and you practice ten times, it is more appropriate to practice Xingyiquan. ?
Fourth, learn kung fu and talk about it, and pass it on to people with will and virtue.
Maybe everyone thinks that Xingyiquan can't be changed without three bodies, but I have indeed seen some teachers stand in three bodies when teaching students. Then if you really practice, you should know that you are wrong. You are lucky that your legs are not standing, or you are really a martial arts genius.
Don't you know that standing on a pile requires excessive and other auxiliary techniques? I don't need to say too much. Anyway, this is the inheritance of my family's kung fu. I use pole-less piles to correct posture, mix piles to change strength, then use three poses to practice strength, and then further use five elements boxing to grind strength. Such a complete training system is fast and powerful.
According to my observation for many years, many people in the market are teaching rodless piles, which are not rodless piles at all, and even they can't distinguish between rodless piles and mixed piles. Although they are all called rodless piles, the content is completely different! The rodless pile I learned is a system, and it was also taught by my apprentice. I hope you can understand something when I share it today!
Rodless piles are based on fixed-root piles, and * * * has five small contents, namely:
1, stepless lower gas reactor
2. Headless beam pile
3. Infinite treasure pile
4. Ring ball pile
5. Infinite hearts are a pile.
Although it is only five small movements, it is also a three-step exercise method, which can make every practitioner fully understand the changes of Gong Zhuang's looseness, tightness and movement. Each movement and piling method has its own emphasis, such as: relaxing the physical and mental health of human body, closely seeking the six wrestling forces and frame structure of the pile, and striving for the "all-out" state, that is, the state in which all forces enter an effective working state, and three steps.
