For a martial artist, you must make a choice according to your own conditions and hobbies, and you can't "get lost" in hobbies. Some morning exercisers think that the more martial arts routines they learn, the better their skills will be. They can brag about how many routines they know in front of others, which shows that they are highly skilled. It is said that there was a man who threatened to compete with others because he heard a sentence that made him unhappy. Compared with France, it is also very simple, that is, I play a set of boxing, you also play a set of boxing, take turns to play, and you have to play different boxing. If you don't have any punches to follow after I punch a set of punches, then you lose. If I don't have more fists, even if I lose. This way of fighting is really unprecedented.
Others learn boxing, learn one person today and another tomorrow, or learn this style today and another style in a few days. They often jump ship for innovation, which is called "learning from others". Such an example is easy to find. People who are not deeply rooted should never learn miscellaneous things and become four unlike. You know, it is easier to learn boxing than to change it. Learning a set of boxing skills well, laying a good foundation and mastering boxing theory will make it much easier to learn the next set of boxing skills. If you learn a lot of half-baked boxing, it will be very difficult to change and improve it. In teaching, there are also some people who, for a certain purpose, teach one set every 20 days and three sets every two months. As for how he teaches and learns, let him go. Although this is an individual phenomenon, there are some negative effects.
There is a saying in Laozi's Tao Te Ching: "If you have less, you will get it, but if you have more, you will be confused." However, if you want to learn a knowledge or skill well, you should first be less. On the basis of less, you should study hard and practice hard to be perfect. When Professor Yu Dan explained "no confusion" in her book The Analects of Confucius, she once said so brilliantly: "In our era of information explosion, our biggest distress is that there is too much information, and our biggest problem is the choice, so we need to study selectively and systematically." Then she added: "Learning subtraction means giving up friends you don't want to make, refusing things you don't want to do, and refusing things you don't want to make money. When you dare to give up and know how to give up, talent really refers to the state of' not confused'. "
A few years ago, I read a short story in the newspaper: under the plaque of Hanshan Temple in Gusu, there was a master and apprentice selling sesame cakes. Every morning, the apprentice dipped the brush of the sesame seed cake in water and learned to write the three characters "Hanshan Temple" on the plaque. No matter whether it is cold or hot every day, the more I write, the more fascinated I am, and the calligraphy has improved. One day three years later, the gatehouse caught fire and burned the plaque. Later, the maintenance was to restore the original appearance, but the word "Hanshan Temple" could not be restored, so many calligraphers were recruited to write it, but none of them were ideal, and the host was very anxious. At this time, the apprentice who made baked wheat cakes appeared. He said, "Let me try." Many people look down on him and say that he is overreaching. The host is not bad, but it doesn't hurt to try. As a result, the apprentice who made the baked wheat cake was adopted with a wave of his hand, and his writing style was just as good and vivid. Where this story came from is impossible to verify. Think of it as a fable, which is quite philosophical and thought-provoking.
Many famous martial arts experts in history and today specialize in the skills of their own sects and strive for perfection. Guo, a master of Xingyiquan, chased donkeys and carried goods before he became famous, and fought with donkeys. Some people laughed at him for playing the donkey for three years. After being in prison, because there were shackles in the prison, it was inconvenient to walk, so I played "half-step boxing". After he got out of prison, his kung fu was perfect, and he won all fights with others. People in Wulin praised him for "boxing half a step in the world." Master Yang Chengfu's kung fu is very good. A famous artist wants to exchange another kind of boxing with him and learn from each other. Master Yang Chengfu said, "I think it is enough to practice boxing by myself." That makes sense. I think this is probably the embodiment of Lao Tzu's saying "Give one as the world". Of course, there are also some famous artists who, after learning a certain kind of boxing, learn another kind or several kinds of boxing, and they also learn well, but that is his pursuit for himself. Ordinary amateur morning exercisers can't blindly keep up with the top professionals.
To what extent is the content of morning exercise less and detailed? It depends on everyone's specific situation. For example, age, physique, well-trained, how much time can you spend doing morning exercises, and how good your memory is? What about perseverance and talent? We can't generalize. There are some examples of Ethereum, such as Chen, Yang, Wu, Sun and Wu Pai, and some routines handed down by tribal ancestors and immortals, which are said to be traditional and existing routines such as boxing, knife, knife, pole and fan. Adding a few actions or subtracting a few actions from the original routine is just a few routines. Every faction has branches, branches and branches.
For the average morning exerciser, it is good to learn three or four sets of boxing and two or three sets of equipment. On the basis of having learned or being proficient, it is good to learn one or two more courses if you are interested, but you should choose one with similar style. If the style characteristics are quite different from what you have learned, you should pay attention to avoid affecting what you have learned. Some people may say, I don't want to take part in the competition and I don't want to be famous. I am anyway. It is always good for your health to learn more sets and exercise more. That sounds reasonable. However, we should know that practicing one or two sets of boxing, concentrating on it, studying hard and practicing hard, is much stronger than playing several sets of boxing carelessly and not in place.
Finally, I remind you that martial arts should be practiced according to your own conditions, and you should not aim too high and change your methods. They would rather learn less than work hard to learn better. It is good to have more and more, but it is impossible for ordinary morning exercisers to do it. Boxing proverb: "Afraid of a move."
