How Long Should You Train Each Neigong Exercise ?

Transcription:

Ralph  says: For  the Neigong  exercises, Sifu  mentions that it  should be done for  at least 20 minutes.  Would that be for every  position And if so, um, how  many of you procession per night  any particular sets to do? Um,  20 minutes  is ideal. That’s  what you want to go to.

If you could do more, go ahead. Was that for the whole set Yes. Yes. For the whole set ok. For every one in Neigong. You want to at least 20 minutes. It’s time consuming. It takes time. You know 20 minutes if you’re doing five of them that’s a  lot of time.

That’s like, what is that So five but three. So I  was like an hour and 40 minutes, you know, that’s a long time. So  your doing five that’s an hour and 40 minutes right there. So, uh, it’s  up to you.

You can do more of, you want to, it’s best they say to do it  at night and in the morning if you can, a morning to prepare your body for the day  at night to take any stress that you have and release it. So it’s good to do both that  way you sleep better.

Firstly, if you had to choose one or the other. I would actually go for the night myself so I could sleep better. I’m more relaxed, I sleep much better  and I have more energy throughout the day when I wake up. But if you have trouble sleeping, however, services such as sleep training would be a huge-difference maker.

If you do  it during the morning and you get feeling  all the stress and you go to bed, your body doesn’t sleep as well. So I prefer the night over  the morning, but ideally both are good . Okay. Both. Both  doing it morning and night is good.

So um if you. So is it just based on time if you only have  20 minutes, you just do one exercise then , right Yes. So if you could do one in the morning,  one at night, perfect. Okay. You know, uh, in terms of whatever sets, they all have value.

So every,  anytime of Qigong is actually or a Neigong is has value to you. So pick whichever is comfortable for you.  You can alternate it every day. You could do this, this way, You could do this, this way. You could do this another,  so you can alternate it.

It’s like you’re going to the gym working on your chest. Right, right working on different muscles!  Just hit different angles. Yeah. You don’t have to do all in one day.

You can, you can work  it out through the day. Okay. But if you have the time and you want to do them all, go for it. By all  means.

What Is Internal Power And Can Meditation Improve It

Transcription:

Alright Sifu Larry sent over  from a Emma Riv: Greetings Enter Tai Chi,  greetings, I would like to know what exactly  is internal power and how does meditation improve  this Internal   power is learning  how to move with your,  your body’s connection, your  breath, and getting that timing  in.

So,um Internal powers is really  the difference between external and internal  is external has followed throughs. Okay. So best  example I can say is like external would be like  this and his hands move. Internal is like this, his  hand moved because of the energy, not because I have  to follow through.

So that’s one of the main differences.  Uh, acceleration on point. So when I’m punching externally, I’m  following through with probably a speed being constant. Whereas internal  you excel it last moment within the last inch or two inches too. Boosts  that energy is kind of like, uh, uh, car going fast and then you pop on the  nitric lifts and it gives it that extra boost.

That’s Kinda like what you’re trying  to do there. Uh, meditation works, it helps because in order to do intel energy, your body must be relaxed. So  if you  can meditate  and learn to  relax your body,  it aides you in that  way. Um, it doesn’t have  to be if you train and you’re  relaxed already, meditation is just  a tool to help aide that.

Where as, Sorry, if, if,if   you’re a tense person or if youre a relaxed person , you don’t  need it. But if you’re a kind of person that doesn’t know how  to relax, then yes, the meditation will help. It also relaxes the  mind. Your mind, body, Spirit was one. So if your mind can relax more  and you’re not emotionally tense than your body won’t act that way.

So all  those things do go into play. They help each other. And so, um, yeah, meditation  is a very good thing. You know what medit, what’s the definition of meditation It’s  a focus of thought. That’s really what it it so um, don’t stress your mind out your body .

Won’t  get stressed  out. Relax the mind.  Body gets relaxed you  understand so um and by doing  that, you know, when people think  to hit hard, you know, you always see  people throw more. You don’t want to hit  hard. You want to hit right and hard comes  because of it.

So you, you know, when I hit  a pad, I don’t worry about how much the guy has  to feel it. I would worry about how well I drive that  energy and hit the point on it. And the guy feels because of that. Same thing that I tell people, when you lock someone  down, don’t think of the takedown, think of a lock, focusing on  the lock and the take down curves because of it.

When you’re hitting,  don’t think they hit hard things. They hit right and the pilot comes behind  it.Yes, yes.

Kung Fu Lesson In Controlling Energy C.O.P. (Consistency Of Pressure)

Transcription:

Lorenzo gomez: Says, what’s the  first lesson in controlling  energy. Cop, okay. Cop means consistency  of pressure. If you can’t have consistency  of pressure on contact, you can’t develop the  ability to control you’re either collapse or you wind up fighting.

So the first thing that you want to learn to do  in control energy is learn How to work with it, not against  it or get ahead of it. And what I mean by that is, let’s just  say he puts pressure on me. Okay So if he puts pressure on me and  I fight, it’s gonna make me bounce off of him.

And especially if he is strong, now we’re going to assume that he is stronger than me. That’s why now if he’s weaker  than my fight will break him. But if I’m weaker, I collapsed. So I won’t have the ability  influence remember contact point means control point. So the only way I can actually influence  him is where I make contact with him.

Okay  So if  I’m too  busy pulling  away or fighting,  how can I manipulate  the energy So He’s pushing  me. You see how now I’m matching  his energy and then I control it behind  it. Okay Now, that’s the first day. Like I  said, three proof is how we do it.

But the concept  of know how to work with energy and not against it are  ahead of it, is the way you get your three proof to manipulate  that. So the Cop technique is the most important thing that you have  to get down. Because if you are fighting, then you can’t be controlling.

You  know what you lack in skill you make up in strength . So if you’re fighting  him, then you’re not gonna be able to control them.
