Boxing classics talk about "stabilizing the foundation and enriching the internal qi", and the "root" here has a basic meaning, that is, footwork. Another way of saying it is that "fundamental" means primordial qi, which is hidden in the kidney and full of kidney qi, and "moistening its source" means the root, that is, the source, which is the foundation of all qi, and its root lies in the kidney and passes through the abdomen. Dantian was originally a Taoist language, and Taoism transplanted the method of cultivating elixir with a cauldron to the human body, that is, taking the lower abdomen of the human body as the place where the cauldron was set, and cultivating the acquired true qi F here with the help of fire and kidney water. Regarding the true qi, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism and medicine all explored and cultivated it from different angles and in different ways. Nouns such as yang, primordial qi, vital qi, mixed element and noble qi always refer to this kind of true qi. It is common for some boxers to be obsessed with practicing small sundays and big sundays. Exploring the extent to which practice can be regarded as getting through the second pulse of Ren Du and Sunday, and so on. In fact, the size of Sunday is also a Taoist saying. Previous martial artists studied under the guidance of Taoism and absorbed the empty meditation of Buddhism. However, practicing martial arts does not mean practicing Zen. Martial artists have similarities and differences with Taoism and Buddhism. Practicing martial arts pays attention to both internal and external training, which is the so-called "practicing bones and muscles outside and breathing inside". As for the specific methods of practicing martial arts, each faction has its own inheritance. Personally, I think that the first thing to do in practicing martial arts is to grasp its "root", that is, to practice "showing merit". When I say "abdomen" here, I don't mean the abdomen one inch and three points below the navel, but the abdomen below the navel, the kidneys behind the waist and many internal organs. In short, we are practicing the whole waist and abdomen. Enrich the qi in the abdomen, maintain the internal organs, dredge the qi and blood of the bones of the body and limbs, and achieve the purpose of fitness and health preservation. Stand up for Hunyuandui from the beginning. There are many books and articles about the practice of this skill, which can be referenced. Here are just a few points: 1, don't stand the pile for too long, it takes five minutes to start, and half an hour at the longest is enough; 2, the mentality is peaceful and relaxed, and the mentality is not relaxed. Without thinking: 3. Breathe naturally at first, and it is advisable to use abdominal breathing for a long time, which means to stay in the abdomen if you leave; 4. Persevere and see merit for a long time. To practice this Gong Zhuang is mainly to cultivate the internal force of the whole body. Second, practice internal skills with five elements boxing Peiyuan. Since Mr. Li Cunyi handed it down from Mr. Zhang Hongqing, we have paid attention to using Xingyiquan's five elements to adjust our breathing and practice our internal skills. The martial arts handed down from the predecessors began with the split fist. It can be said that every step of a set of two-handed boxing, from the beginning, performance and receiving, contains the method of internal cultivation of boxers. The mystery is hard to say and easy to say. What is difficult is that simple things are complicated by people; That's easy to say. As long as you understand the core points, you will naturally have kung fu. The basic practice of this step is to practice chopping slowly. Take boxing as a pile, boxing as a pile, one pile at a time, pause for a while every time, and carefully understand whether your boxing rack is in place; Experience whether breathing meets the requirements. Fist breathing is natural breathing at first. After the hands and feet are combined inside and outside, it can be changed to reverse abdominal breathing, that is, abdominal breathing. The specific requirements are to inhale when tripping out and exhale when overturning. When inhaling, the lower abdomen adducts, the diaphragm rises, the qi in dantian rises from the lower abdomen, the stomach naturally bulges, the chest naturally expands, and the vital capacity increases: when exhaling, the lower abdomen adducts, the diaphragm falls, the internal qi sinks into dantian, and the stomach and chest naturally calm down. The backhand is divided forward, and then the foot falls forward, and the gas of winning the cup falls into the abdomen and then sinks into the spring. It is necessary to reach hands, feet, spirit and mind (with pride). Through repeated practice day after day, we can find the law of promoting qi, dynamic energy and combining inside and outside. With this skill, we can continue to practice drilling, collapsing, blasting and horizontal boxing, in which the concepts of moving boxing and splitting boxing are the same, but the movements are different. Second, calling Dantian is also called Qi, and calling Dantian is also called Qi. This is not inaction or invalidity. There are three steps to practicing this skill: 1, pushing the abdomen. Two men stood face to face with an arm between them. Party A pushes Party B's abdomen (abdomen below navel) with his right fist. When Party A pushes the right palm to the abdomen, Party B retreats with his left foot to do a right lunge, exhales, breathes through the abdomen, and the abdomen swells, accepting the right palm pushed by Party A with the gas in the abdomen. After the pause, Party B takes a step with his left foot in Party A's crotch, with the front bow of his left leg propped up, and his right leg pushed back and exhaled. Then push the lower abdomen of the nail with the palm of your left hand; Party A retreats to the right and uses the lower abdomen to pick up the left palm pushed by Party B, at the same time, the lower abdomen bulges and pierces the abdomen. This way, one left and one right, one push and one push are repeated, so that two people's hands and feet can rotate during the exercise. Precautions: (1) Push the palm in the previous step, with both feet steady, and the strength comes from the heel, with the waist as the pivot and reaching the palm. You use dark strength, and you must not push hard outside the strength; (2) When you take the palm, your feet are steadfast, your breath is penetrating your abdomen, and your whole body is full of qi. You can catch the opponent's push palm with a whole strength. 2. pat the abdomen. Pat the abdomen (lower abdomen), upper abdomen (upper abdomen) and soft rib with three methods: pat, beat and point. The initial method is to pat the above three places with your palm. Then use the hitting method, that is, hit the same part with the outer edge of the palm (little finger side). Finally, use the point method, point with your fingers. Note: This skill should be practiced after standing on a pile or walking with fists. Remember not to practice this exercise when you are full, empty and tired. 3, Dan Dantian This is the practice of "calling Dantian" in the boxing frame. In order to achieve the qi of the abdomen, it can be emitted at will, making the internal qi full and lively. Exercise > At -3, Xingyiquan's walking gun can be used as a command. Starting from a three-body posture, the right foot is straight up; Hit the lower abdomen with both fists, and the heart of the fist is upward; Step up with your left foot to an oblique angle and hit the right cannon boxing; Then step forward to the right and hit the lower abdomen with both fists: step left again, then step sideways to the right, and hit the left cannon boxing at the same time. Walk around and practice like this. Note: (1) The artillery boxing is a three-step group, the first two steps are straight and the third step is oblique. When entering the first step, the fist hits the lower abdomen from top to bottom, reaching the little finger side. Exhale when hitting the lower abdomen, the abdomen bulges and the whole body swells. (2) Before practicing this skill, practice skills such as chopping, drilling and collapsing, and then practice skills such as fixed step and moving step of artillery boxing. Only when you feel full of internal qi can you practice the skill of "sucking your hands and beating your stomach". Strike from light to heavy, and never use force blindly. Boxing Day: "Recuperate the spirit, nourish the spirit, be faithful, practice immortality in Dantian, and don't give two thousand gold to others." Let's practice > -3. The traditional method of internal boxing is to pull the bones out by stretching the muscles; Breathing can guide breathing and breathing work, make the abdomen full of qi, transform qi and blood, and make the qi and blood of limbs and whole body unimpeded. Insisting on the above-mentioned practice of Dantian's internal strength can make us keep fit and enjoy the spirit.
