Appreciation of Images of the Contradictory Stick and the Tiger-Crushing Stick (Case of Mr. Cui Youcheng)

Recently, I saw two pictures of senior Great Form (Yi Quan) master Cui Youcheng, the source is unknown, the author stated that the infringer will be deleted immediately, here is only for appreciation and promotion of Great Form through observation, to help promote it.

Technique sticks and enhanced sticks differ slightly, like this contradictory stick, the legs don't bend down much, which is convenient for maneuvering. If it's about leg training, you need to significantly lower yourself, you shouldn't be afraid of getting tired. For example, the Tiger-Crushing Stick,

Also said about the above contradictory stick,

Two hands of circling embrace and two arms of encircling embrace cannot be recognized separately, this needs to be combined with raising the head, slightly pressing the forehead forward to apply intention and force,

The upper body, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and fingers can clearly show top-force, the tendons and muscles are stretched to store power, ready to be touched,

The circling embrace of the hands is to add the forward support of the arms, the encircling embrace of the arms is to increase the horizontal support of the elbows,

Using two hands of circling and encircling to achieve 'seven circling, seven embracing' while the whole body shows a state of wanting to exit and not exiting, wanting to launch and not launching, which is impressive,

In terms of, it's like saying 'inner angle supports roundness, outer joint supports top.' The jargon is called 'tight in the middle, seek relaxation.'

From head to tail, slightly leaning forward, naturally upright, full of momentum,

Furthermore, about the Tiger-Crushing Stick,

Some people stand on the Tiger-Crushing Stick, and their necks will sag and soften. When practicing this stick, the more you squat, the more you need to keep your neck straight, the two tendons in front of your neck should support,

Your butt shouldn't go beyond your heels, there should be a clear struggle of power between the back hip and the front knee,

From the top of your head to your tailbone, try to stretch your line backwards, your arms and hands should extend forward, your body and hands should have front and back struggle,

The front and back knee joints bend approximately 90 degrees, this is for leg strength training, not endurance training. Stop when you feel your leg muscles and tendons twitch, maybe for tens of seconds,

The rear shoulder is slightly higher than the front shoulder, the front wrist and front toe should be approximately on the same line,

The center of gravity should be distributed between the front and back legs, 50/50 is convenient for the center of gravity to move flexibly, shifting the center of gravity towards the back leg is to increase the back leg's thrust,

is lost, distorted, not only because of the elders' conservatism, but also because of individual perseverance. Maybe subsequent generations' dedication to their ancestors' teachings is not as much as generation after generation,

Mr. Cui Youcheng is a disciple of Mr. Wang Bin Kui, who was once famous in Beijing, inspiring later generations to admire him.
