Taijiquan constantly emphasizes "looseness", but also requires "looseness and unremittingness", this "looseness" and "slackness" in fact! What is the difference between "loose" and "slack"?

Loose that is, the spirit is not tense, peace of mind, the body is not stiff, to be natural, but can not have a sense of collapse, to the overall smooth; slack that is the meaning of loose, breathless, lethargic feeling, in short, in the practice of taijiquan both relaxed, but also to be smooth and powerful, action stretch generous, physical and mental unity, can not be loose powerlessness, stiff machinery on the good.

Looseness is the looseness of the muscles, and slackness is the degree of tension of the joints! For example, when you push the palm of the loose and not excessive anti-ninning, squatting when the loose and not to sit as ...... for waist loose and not as twisted!

Loose means that the muscles are loose and the muscles are tight, while slack means that the muscles are soft. You have jumped rope, right, when the speed is a little fast rope turning state is loose is flexible, when the speed is too slow rope flimsy fling up the state is slack!

I suggest you take a look at the old Mr. Yang Chengpu's manual, which has everything you want to know and have to do.

In Taiji, the bones and muscles must be relaxed and the spirit must be realized. No slackness, i.e., the conscious mind must not be slack, and concentration must be focused.

When people are in danger, their bodies tend to become stiff, and the result of stiffness is that they can't move, their muscles don't listen to their brains, and they become numb. So the more to the danger, the more to relax, only relaxed muscles can move, can be used freely, can send out the speed, can hit the power! Therefore, when we train, we should intentionally train to relax the muscles, relax the body and mind, and then we can gather the power to send the force, and hit as fast as lightning, powerful and heavy force!

The purpose of our Tai Chi practice is to develop this strength. It is only when we are loose and soft that we can produce speed and power, and we can strike a fatal blow! So our Tai Chi practice is to develop the pine and softness, to keep the state of pine and softness at all times, and to send out the strength in the state of pine and softness.

Taijiquan is not practiced for the sake of looking good, nor even for practicing moves, but for the sake of practicing the state of being loose and soft, so as to be able to make the fastest reaction, send out the fastest speed, and strike with the greatest power! The practical significance of Taijiquan lies in this, and the practical value of Taijiquan also lies in this, it can be applied to any fighting competition, and even to any sports program that pursues higher, faster and stronger!

You would be amazingly fast and powerful if you were a combat athlete who could practice to the point of being loose and supple! In this regard, Bruce Lee was perfect! How fast and heavy were Bruce Lee's punches? Those who were not around in those days and did not personally experience his punches and kicks could not perceive it. The reason why he was able to send out such a fast and rigid force was that he intentionally adjusted himself to a state of supreme relaxation and suppleness, and then gathered his force to send out a fast, accurate and vicious punch and kick, which was the same as Tai Chi!

Nowadays, there are people who denigrate Taijiquan and badmouth Taijiquan, they really don't understand the principles of Taijiquan, and there are also many practitioners who don't understand the principles of Taijiquan and are practicing blindly! And some crooks also take advantage of the mystery of Tai Chi to cheat and spoil the reputation of Tai Chi! There are also some people who don't understand Taiji even more don't pretend to understand, where blindly forced, always emphasizing what Taiji actual combat with Taiji movements, which is completely wrong, but also a misunderstanding of Taijiquan!

The principle of Tai Chi is to be in training and combat, first of all, we have to relax our stiff body, the more relaxed your body will be more flexible, the more relaxed your body will be more powerful, the more relaxed your body will be able to command your body, to achieve physical and mental unity, so that your muscle conditioning ability will be stronger! Because people are tense when the muscles are stiff, muscle stiffness, people can not move, so we have to train how to adjust the human body to a relaxed state, but the mental focus should be concentrated, the mind can not be slack.

Tai Chi is the best way to train the body and mind to relax and to adjust the muscles to relax, and the highest level of relaxation is to be loose and soft, and when we have practiced to be loose and soft, we will have no problem in generating the force, and we will be able to put and release it freely, and we will be able to send out a fast and fierce force! This force can really destroy the world, can really move mountains, can really crush the opponent!

Loose means that the body should be relaxed, and loose but unremitting slack means that the mind should be concentrated, and the essence, qi, and spirit should be coherent

Loose and slack, seemingly non-power, shape and gas uniformity, can not be made in a hurry, day after day, by RanYi.

Loosening is loosening, the body against the pulling and pulling long is loosening, naturally non-people understand the flaccid, loosening.

Taijiquan, the difference between loose and slack, personal understanding, loose that is random natural movement, slack, that is, the idea and loose together with the operation.

Looseness, first of all, is mental looseness, muscle relaxation, mental relaxation, the skeleton collar up, like a hanger to hang clothes.
