Tai Chi Chuan? Will it sink every turn?
Sinking is the foundation of Tai Ji Chuan. Many people learn from Tai Ji Chuan and know that modern boxers want to relax. If it is too loose, it will lose the meaning of practicing martial arts.
? Will it sink every turn? It is an important law of Tai Ji Chuan movement summarized by Tai Ji Chuan's predecessors. So-called? Turn? It should be reflected in two aspects, one is the change of pace, and the other is the change of reality.
So-called? A sink? It is also reflected in two aspects. One is? The crotch is loose and heavy? The direction of the upper limbs of the body has not changed; And second? Spinning and sinking? The direction of the upper limbs has changed. These two kinds? A sink? There is no fixed pattern in the way, and it is always used interactively.
To learn from Tai Ji Chuan, you should master Tai Ji Chuan's movement rules, be familiar with Tai Ji Chuan's relaxation and training methods, and often practice Tai Ji Chuan to help you relieve fatigue.
When changing the pace, which side of the leg should I take first? The crotch is loose and heavy? , or? Spinning and sinking? First, in order to stabilize the body center of gravity in the real leg, the virtual leg can be lighter; The second is the real leg side? Hip sinking? , virtual leg side? Hip lift? Is it achieved? Put your hips around your legs? Purpose.
As long as you make real legs before moving? A sink? Many disadvantages that are easy to appear in the process of pace change will naturally be eliminated. Is this done? Walk like a cat? The point is? The main contradiction? ,? The main contradiction? Solved,? Secondary contradiction? It is easy to solve.
Tai Ji Chuan's footwork should be divided into two steps. The first step is to build a leg first. Spinning and sinking? After the center of gravity is stable, first recover the virtual foot; The second is through real legs? Spinning and sinking? And walk out, this time? Spinning and sinking? Not only to stabilize the center of gravity, but also to balance the body at the beginning.
Tai Ji Chuan attaches great importance to the change of Yin and Yang, so he should distinguish Yin and Yang when practicing Tai Chi footwork, and his footwork should be clear. In footwork training, he should make a good transition between relaxation and sinking.
The general rule of starting is to rotate the right hip and start with the left foot; Rotate the left hip, starting from the right foot; About? Spin? Small amplitude, step forward, step back? Spin? Wide range.
The real leg side during the transition between reality and reality? The crotch is loose and heavy? The direction of the upper limbs of the body has not changed. What is this called? Bend your hips down? ; One side of the leg? Spinning and sinking? The direction of the upper limbs of the body has changed. What is this called? Did you go down the arc after walking? Also known as? Rounded hips? Or? Hip spiral? .
This kind? A sink? It is achieved by relaxing the hips and upper limbs. Sit down? There are essential differences. Is it? The crotch is loose and heavy? Or? Spinning and sinking? The upper limbs of the body must be a whole and cannot be distorted.
Why should the real leg side be the first when the virtual and the real are transformed? The crotch is loose and heavy? Or? Spinning and sinking? A sink? On the one hand, for? Borrow the power of the land? In this way, the legs can eat hard and get twice the result with half the effort, which is the same as the bird squatting first when taking off; On the other hand, for? Save strength? ,? A sink? What is that? Close? After closing, you can fire.
So-called? Spin? , not only can make virtual reality into a round life, but also create conditions for holding hands with others. When reality and reality have not changed? Spinning and sinking? Is it impossible to produce? Spiral force? In this sense, Tai Ji Chuan is? Rotating virtual reality? Exercise.
When the center of gravity moves, it rotates and sinks? Is it in place and available? Sit on your lap and tuck your hips? For testing. ? Sit on your lap and tuck your hips? Is it a real leg side? Spinning and sinking? After that, a state is produced, that is, the crotch on one side of the real leg is closed and the center of gravity sits on the real leg. Because of the upper limbs of the body? Spinning and sinking? And then what? Sit on your lap and tuck your hips? Not only can you feel the bounce of the soles of your feet against the ground, but you can also feel the soles of your feet rubbing against the ground from the inside out.
Can you do that? Sit on your lap and tuck your hips? Tightening your knees is the key. Like on the side of a solid leg? Spinning and sinking? At the same time, the knee of the real leg shakes or everts, which not only damages the knee, but also does not produce the feeling it should have. What if the toes of the real leg are placed in a figure of eight? Hip? The center of gravity can't sit on the real leg.
? Will it sink every turn? It is not only the law of Tai Ji Chuan's movement summarized by our ancestors, but also the boxing method that we must follow in practicing Tai Ji Chuan, and it is also a key to open the door of Taiji. Maybe one day we will suddenly have an epiphany. After practicing Tai Ji Chuan for so many years, what are we practicing? Will it sink every turn? Four words.
Taiji footwork and its transformation law
Learning Tai Ji Chuan well can make people improve from the level of fitness to the level of understanding the body structure, and finally change to the level of developing body energy. This physical transformation process is a qualitative leap, simple and complicated. The simple thing is: a beginner in Tai Ji Chuan, under the guidance of a reasonable teacher, can immediately feel the peace of his body when he relaxes.
The complexity is; This kind of experience can't be experienced physically without the guidance of the teacher. Students with poor understanding think that the teacher is cheating, students with average understanding are dubious, and students with good understanding practice hard.
It's not that the teacher lied. When the teacher lets the students understand, they take apart the bones of the students' bodies, and then readjust the frame structure between the bones according to the principle of structural mechanics, so that an expanding supporting force can immediately appear in the body. The development of this potential in the body is like high-rise buildings built in real life, bridges and tunnels built and so on.
So is the body. As long as the frame structure is properly matched, it will have extraordinary bearing capacity. Many people don't realize this, don't know that there is this potential in their body structure, and don't know that energy is converted within one millimeter. In fact, stable footwork is the reasonable collocation of all joints below the waist.
For a reasonable teacher, this kind of physics skill is usually taught by students according to Gong Zhuang's method. The vast majority of students are looking for the right or wrong exercise methods when experiencing, rather than understanding the changing relationship of body structure. Some students will blame the teacher for not telling the truth after listening to my words.
From the process of my study, practice, research and communication in Tai Ji Chuan; The teacher is unreasonable and irresponsible. It's because my physical foundation can't meet the requirements of Tai Ji Chuan, and I'm eager for success, which makes my body unable to fix the law of coordinated operation. Even if the teacher explains the principle of action thoroughly, it is impossible to master it in physics.
Judging from the shape of Chen Tai Ji Chuan, most of them are based on the Three Seven Steps. Some martial arts boxing methods are called 37 steps? Step by step? ,? Hey? Interpreted in the dictionary as; The house leans and is straightened with long logs. Only this kind of footwork is the most reasonable, if we want to keep integrity when practicing Tai Ji Chuan.
It can be said that the quality of footwork transformation determines Tai Ji Chuan's kung fu realm. The right or wrong of footwork conversion depends entirely on the operation of knee joint, which determines the endurance of the body. If it is not well protected, nothing will be achieved.
When did Tai Ji Chuan practice? You come to be a flesh-and-blood priest? Level, you can appreciate the Tai Ji Chuan movement as the realm of Gong Zhuang. Physically, the movement of flesh and blood is passive, and the coordinated movement of the body is completely pulled by the receiver of breath, and the body can only practice until now. Loose? Just reached a level. The movement of the knee joint is only one of the nine turns of the body, but this turn can determine the final state of your Tai Ji Chuan practice.
How to practice to succeed? I wrote it clearly in my previous experience. The details are as follows: First of all, we should straighten our boxing ring according to the posture of boxing spectrum and adjust the three seven steps. The posture of boxing station should not be too low, and the body can pull if it has squat consciousness, indicating that consciousness and breath are sinking. Then, don't move your whole body, keep your upper body upright, with your head on it and your feet on the ground, so that you can experience the state of being as quiet as Mount Tai in your body.
How the knee joint works is the key issue, and it will not appear if it can be practiced. Fuck, punch? Fight. Initially, the body's center of gravity is divided into three steps. Through the action of the center of gravity between the legs, a torsional force appears after the sole rubs the ground, pushing the ankle joint to rotate, pushing the calf to rotate, driving the knee joint to move in circles, and rotating the three steps supporting the center of gravity to the other side.
In this exercise, keep the step shape of Sanqi lunge unchanged, keep the upper body eccentric, and turn the body around 45 like a vertical shaft? Rotate in the opposite direction after being in place. In this way, change the center of gravity back and forth, and practice repeatedly, practice makes perfect.
With the growth of kung fu, we will gradually realize that the center of gravity of the body does not refer to the self-respect of the body, but to the sinking of consciousness and breath. There is a supporting force between this force and the ground. When we achieve the balance of two forces, the knee joint will be rotated by friction, and every joint of the body will follow the sole of the foot, which makes the body achieve the overall level of spiral rotation.
This slow rotation of the knee joint can make all joints of the body work flexibly and prevent accidental injury of the knee joint. Knee joint can control the trouble of body movements while running slowly, and slowly practice the foundation of Tai Ji Chuan's coordinated movements.
At this time, I realized that Taiji Chuan learned his spirit from the tangible, and then practiced his body movements freely and naturally. Instead of simplifying the Tai Ji Chuan routine and practicing the traditional Tai Ji Chuan routine, then practicing Tai Ji Chuan's study and practicing knives, guns, swords, sticks and other instruments.
The meaning of sinking
? A sink? Is the essence of Tai Ji Chuan, relaxation is the method, sinking is the purpose. As for qi and waist strength, circles, circles, balls, etc. , are addition on the basis of sinking. Life is not just a head, so you should practice your limbs and parts.
Simply put, the arm sinks and acts on the shoulder, and the shoulder supports backwards, thus completing the support from the spine to the arm, which also completes the force from the spine to the arm. If there are no heavy arms, there will be no support for them.
By relaxing the waist, the weight above the waist is applied to the crotch, and then sinks to the legs to complete the waist and crotch sinking. By relaxing the legs and feet, the weight above the feet is applied to the soles of the feet, and the force is exerted on the roots.
The small sink should obey the big sink, and the small sink should assist the big sink. Every part of the body has a weight, and to reflect this weight through looseness, as far as its own weight is concerned, the arm belongs to a small weight and the body belongs to a large weight.
For example, turn right and hold the ball, and the right arm is slightly heavier. When the right turn body sinks, it will tilt the small and heavy right arm through the crotch, and the right arm belongs to the obedience position. The left arm will sink down to the right as the body sinks, completing the role of assisting the body to sink.
To practice Tai Ji Chuan, you must sink down, just like the combination of the dead and the living. From strong sinking, you can develop weak sinking. When accumulating power, the whole body sinks, causing the compression of the body, and the compression acts on the ground, causing the foot pressure to be very hard. This downward push, through the earth's reaction, destroys the sinking body.
Feet sinking is to constantly enhance the muscle strength of the body and make up for the lack of pedal strength. As the saying goes, its root lies in the foot, which is the lowest part of the whole body and the root of the whole body.
Legs and feet move, whole body moves, legs and feet stop, whole body stops. People who practice Tai Ji Chuan must work hard from their legs and feet.
How to relax in Tai Ji Chuan?
1, the real part of the body relaxes from top to bottom and sinks to the soles of the feet. If it is loose but not heavy, it is not really loose; The virtual part of the body relaxes, floats or lifts from bottom to top. If it's loose, it's not really loose. Tai Ji Chuan's footwall strength is one of these exercises.
2. Many people hurt their knees while practicing Tai Ji Chuan. Why is this happening? Not really relaxing your knees is one of the reasons. If the knee is relaxed, the weight of the body will naturally sink to the sole of the foot, and the knee will not be stressed too much.
3. If you feel that the lumbar spine bones or muscles are stressed too much when practicing boxing or pushing hands, it is not really loose.
Some people say that it is right to bend your feet slightly after lunge, while others say that it is right to straighten your feet after lunge. In fact, these people don't really understand the actual state of lunge. In this respect, I agree with Mr. Dong Yingjie, a famous Tai Chi master, that the hind foot of lunge is empty when not in use and can be slightly bent.
Time is truth. When the opponent's strength falls to the ground, his hind feet are straight, and when the strength is strong, his hind feet become empty, or they can be straight.
There are many people who actually go astray in their understanding of loose shoulders and elbows, but they think that they have practiced very well and correctly, and finally they have not achieved the effect of Tai Ji Chuan. Many people don't understand that the shoulder in the loose shoulder drop elbow refers not to the shoulder joint, but to the scapula.
Only by relaxing the scapula can your arms communicate and help you achieve your goal.
6. What is the waist and hip collar? In other words, every movement of the limbs is led by the waist and buttocks; If the upper limbs or lower limbs have redundant movements after the waist and buttocks complete their movements at this potential, it means that the movements of the waist and buttocks are out of touch with the movements of the limbs.
7. Some people use the practice of bending the knee joint to lower the center of gravity and body height of the footwall. First, not slacking off, but trying to sit low; Second, the knee joint is stiff, which is not conducive to the change of reality and is easy to damage the knee joint.
Only when the waist is relaxed and the hips are relaxed and the soles of the feet are stressed (not for a long time, but for a short time before the ground recoil), the knees are not stressed.
8. When there is shoulder pain and low back pain in boxing, it is because the strength of bones and muscles is not enough, not necessarily the wrong method. Tiredness is inevitable, but it is also phased. It is normal to be tired after being tired, but don't think that being tired is the standard of long-term efforts, let alone pursuing fatigue.
Shen's practical method
(a) adhere to the essentials of Tai Ji Chuan.
Only when the spirit is weak, the shoulders are heavy, the elbows are drooping, the hips are slack, the tail is upright, and the center of gravity falls on the spring, can it be completely relaxed.
In other words, to stand up straight, the whole body should not be stiff except that the feet must support the whole body weight, and the muscles of the whole body should not be in a state of exertion.
(2) Any part of the body during boxing.
Whether it is forward, backward, rising, sinking or turning left and right, it must move with the waist shaft and be driven by it.
Because the hands, feet and trunk are driven by the waist shaft, naturally there is no need to use any extra force to move it. In this way, the minimum looseness can be achieved.
(3) only pay attention to the looseness, not the waist axis.
Raise your hand and cast your feet, instead of doing it in one go, do it according to the theory of boxing? Moving all the time? This relaxed requirement is relaxation.
