一舉動周身俱要輕靈,尤須貫串。氣宜鼓盪,神宜內斂,無使有缺陷處,無使有凹凸處,無使有斷續處。其根在腳,發於腿,主宰於腰,行於手指,由腳而腿而腰,總須完整一氣,向前退後,乃能得機得勢。有不得機得勢處,身便散亂,其病必於腰腿求之,上下前後左右皆然。凡此皆是意,不在外面,有上即有下,有前則有後,有左則有右。如意要向上,即寓下意,若將物掀起而加以挫之之力。斯其根自斷,乃壞之速而無疑。虛實宜分清楚,一處有一處虛實,處處總此一虛實,周身節節貫串,無令絲毫間斷耳。
 
長拳者,如長江大海,滔滔不絕也。掤、履、擠、按、採、挒、肘、靠,此八卦也。進步、退步、左顧、右盼、中定,此五行也。掤、履、擠、按,即乾、坤、坎、離、四正方也。採、挒、肘、靠,即巽、震、兌、艮、四斜角也。進退盼顧定,即金木水火土也,合之則為十三勢也。
 
原註云:此係武當山張三丰祖師遺論。欲天下豪傑延年益壽,不徒作技藝之末也。

== 太極拳論 (王宗岳著) ==
太極者無極而生。陰陽之母也。動之則分。靜之則合。無過不及。隨曲就伸。人剛我柔謂之走。我順人背謂之黏。動急則急應。動緩則緩隨。雖變化萬端。而理為一貫。由著熟而漸悟懂勁。由懂勁而階及神明。然非功力之久。不能豁然貫通焉。虛靈頂勁。氣沈丹田。不偏不倚。忽隱忽現。左重則左虛。右重則右杳。仰之則彌高。俯之則彌深。進之則愈長。退之則愈促。一羽不能加。蠅蟲不能落。人不知我。我獨知人。英雄所向無敵。蓋皆由此而及也。斯技旁門甚多。雖勢有區別。概不外乎壯欺弱。慢讓快耳。有力打無力。手慢讓手快。是皆先天自然之能。非關學力而有為也。察四兩撥千斤之句。顯非力勝。觀耄耋能禦眾之形。快何能為。立如平準。活似車輪。偏沉則隨。雙重則滯。每見數年純功。不能運化者。率自為人制。雙重之病未悟耳。欲避此病。須知陰陽相濟。方為懂勁。懂勁後。愈練愈精。默識揣摩。漸至從心所欲。本是舍己從人。多誤舍近求遠。所謂差之毫釐。謬以千里。學者不可不詳辨焉。是為論。

== [http://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-hant/太極十三勢  十三勢行功心解] ==
以心行氣,務令沈著,乃能收斂入骨。以氣運身,務令順遂,乃能便利從心。精神能提得起,則無遲重之虞,所謂頂頭懸也。意氣須換得靈,乃有圓活之趣,所謂轉變虛實也。發勁須沉著鬆淨,專注一方。立身須中正安舒,支撐八面。行氣如九曲珠,無往不利。運勁如百煉鋼,無堅不摧。形如搏兔之鶻。神如捕鼠之貓,靜如山岳,動如江河。蓄勁如張弓,發勁如放箭。曲中求直,蓄而後發。力由脊發,步隨身換。收即是放,斷而復連。往復須有摺疊,進退須有轉換。極柔軟,然後極堅剛。能呼吸,然後能靈活。氣以直養而無害,勁以曲蓄而有餘。心為令,氣為旗,腰為纛,先求展開,後求緊湊,乃可臻於縝密矣。
 
又曰:彼不動,己不動。彼微動,己先動。勁似鬆非鬆,將展未展,勁斷意不斷。又曰︰先在心,後在身,腹鬆氣沈入骨,神舒體靜,刻刻在心。切記一動無有不動,一靜無有不靜。牽動往來氣貼背,而斂入脊骨,內固精神,外示安逸。邁步如貓行,運勁如抽絲,全身意在精神,不在氣,在氣則滯。有氣則無力,無氣則純剛,氣若車輪,腰如車軸。

== 十三勢歌 ==
十三總勢莫輕識,命意源頭在腰隙;變轉虛實須留意,氣遍身軀不梢滞。
靜中觸動動猶靜,因敵變化是神奇;勢勢存心揆用意,得來不覺費工夫。
刻刻留意在腰間,腹內鬆靜氣騰然;尾閭中正神貫頂,滿身輕利頂頭懸。
仔細留心向推求,屈伸開合聽自由;入門引路須口授,功夫無息法自休。
若言體用何為準,意氣君來骨肉臣;詳推用意終何在,益壽延年不老春。
歌兮歌兮百四十,字字真切義無疑;若不向此推求去,枉費工夫遺歎惜。

== 打手要言 武禹襄 ==
解曰。身雖動。心貴靜。氣須斂。神宜舒。心為令。氣為旗。神為主帥。身為驅使。刻刻留 意。方有所得。先在心。後在身。在身。則不知手之舞之。足之蹈之。所謂舍己從人。引進 落空。四兩撥千斤也。須知一動無有不動。一靜無有不靜。視動猶靜。視靜猶動。內固精 神。外示安逸。須要從人。不要由己。從人則活。由己則滯。尚氣者無力。養氣者純剛。彼 不動。己不動。彼微動。己先動。以己依人。務要知己。乃能隨轉隨接。以己粘人。必須知 人乃能不後不先。精神能提得起。則無雙重之虞。粘依能跟得靈。方見落空之妙。往復須分 陰陽、進退須有轉合。機由己發。力從人借。發勁須上下相隨。乃一往無敵。立身須中正不 偏。能八面支撐。靜如山岳。動若江河。邁步如臨淵。運勁如抽絲。蓄勁如張弓。發勁如放 箭。行氣如九曲珠。無微不到。運勁如百鍊鋼。何堅不摧。形如搏兔之鵠。神如捕鼠之貓。 曲中求直。蓄而後發。收即是放。連而不斷。極柔軟。然後能極堅剛。能粘依。然後能靈 活。氣以直養而無害。勁以曲蓄而有餘。漸至物來順應。是亦知止能得矣。 又曰。每一動。惟手先著力。隨即鬆開。猶須貫串。不外起承轉合。始而意動。既而勁動。

== [http://www.ct-taichi.org.tw/button_two_detail.php?B_ID=33&B2_ID=50 太極拳十要] (楊澄甫口授,陳微明筆述) ==
[http://taichivancouver.com/yang-cheng-fus-ten-principles-on-tai-chi-chuan/ English translation]
 
一、虛靈頂勁 (straightening the head):頂勁者,頭容正直,神貫於頂也。不可用力,用力則項強,血氣不能流通,須有虛靈自然之意。非有虛靈頂勁,則精神不能提起也。
二、含胸拔背 (correct position of chest and back):含胸者,胸略內涵,使氣沉於丹田也。胸忌挺出,挺出則氣擁於胸際,上重下輕,腳根易於浮起。拔背者,氣貼於背也。能含胸則自能拔背,能拔背則力能由背發,所向無敵也。
三、鬆腰 (relaxation of waist):腰為一身主宰,能鬆腰後兩足有力,下盤穩固。虛實變化,皆由腰動。故曰命意源頭在腰際,有不得力,必於腰腿求之也。
四、分虛實 (solid and empty stance):太極拳以分虛實為第一義。如全身皆坐在右腿,則右腿為實,左腿為虛。全身坐在左腿,則左腿為實,右腿為虛。虛實能分,而後轉動輕靈,毫不用力。如不能分,則邁步重滯,自立不穩,而易為人所牽動。
五、沉肩墜肘 (sinking shoulders and elbows):沉肩者,肩鬆開下垂也。若不能鬆垂,兩肩端起,則氣亦隨之而上,全身皆不得力矣。墜肘者,肘往下鬆墜之意。肘若懸起,則肩不能沉,放人不遠,近於外家拳之斷勁矣。
六、用意不用力 (using the mind instead of force):太極拳論所云,全是用意不用力。練太極拳,全身鬆開,不使有絲毫之拙力以留滯於筋骨血脈之間,以自束縛,然後能輕靈變化,圓轉自如。或疑不用力,何以能長力?蓋人身之有經絡,如地之有溝洫。溝恤不塞而水行,筋絡不閉而氣通。如渾身僵勁充滿經絡,氣血停滯,轉動不靈,牽一髮而全身動矣。若不用力而用意,意之所屆,氣即至焉。如是氣血流注,日日貫輸,周流全身,無時停滯,長久練習,則其真正內勁,即太極拳論中所云,極柔軟然後能極堅剛也。太極拳功夫純熟之人,臂膊如棉裹鐵,分量極沉。練外家拳者,用力則顯有力,不用力時則甚輕浮,可見其力乃外勁浮面之勁也。外家拳之力最易引動,不足尚也。
七、上下相隨 (coordination of upper and lower parts):上下相隨者,即太極拳論中所云,其根在腳,發於腿,主宰於腰,形於手指,由腳而腿而腰,總須完整一氣也。手動腰動足動,眼神亦隨之動,如是方可謂上下相隨,有一不動,即散亂也。
八、內外相合 (harmony between the internal and external parts):太極所練在神,故云神為主帥,身為軀使。精袖能提得起自然舉動輕靈。架子不外虛實開合。所謂開者,不但手足開,心意亦與之俱開;所謂合者,不但手足合,心意亦與之俱合:能內外合為一氣,則渾然無間矣。
九、相連不斷 (importance of continuity):外家拳術,其勁乃後天之拙勁,故有起有止,有續有斷。舊力已斷,新力未生地時,最易為人所乘。太極拳用意不用力,自始至終,綿綿不斷,周而復始,循環無窮,原論所謂,如長江大河滔滔不絕。又曰,運勁如抽絲,皆言其貫串一氣也。
十、動中求靜動靜合一 (tranquility in movement):外家拳以跳擲為能,用盡氣力,故練習之後,無不氣喘者。太極拳以靜制動,雖動猶靜。故練架子愈慢愈好,慢者呼吸深長。氣沉丹田,自無血脈僨張之弊。學者細心體會,庶可得其意焉。
 
== 太極拳之練習談 — 楊澄甫口述張鴻逵筆錄 ==
https://kknews.cc/news/yal99on.html
 
太極拳之程序,先練拳架(屬於徒手),如太極拳、太極長拳;其次單手推挽、原地推手、活步推手、大捋、散手;再次則器械,如太極劍、太極刀、太極槍(十三槍)等是也。
 
練習時間,每日起床後兩遍,若晨起無暇,則睡前兩遍。一日之中,應練習七八次,至少晨昏各一遍。但醉後、飽食後,皆宜避忌。

== 吳圖南 松八段九節 ==
[https://sites.google.com/site/ac326598/tai-ji-quan-ba-gua-zhang/tai-ji-quan-de-zui-da-mi-mi 太極拳的最大秘密]


== Taichi Sanshou ==
吳圖南先生說:「太極拳之秘,在於松八段九節。」練習太極拳架時把八段九節真正鬆開才可稱為著熟,這是學習太極拳的關鍵。松,最先全身不能有力。全身有九個關節要鬆開。三個在手,三個在腳,三個在背。手三關節是腕、肘、肩。腳三關是胯、膝蓋、踝。背三關是尾閭、頸、頭頂。九關之中最重要是手三關,首先要把手三關鬆開,第一是腕關,接著是肘而肩。肩關是最難松。「鬆肩」忌壓肩,要順著兩側45度斜下松落,將肩井穴張開,降於湧泉穴中。如何才能鬆開關節?首先是鬆開關節之間的腱,接著骨,要不斷的鬆開關節之間的腱。關節之間不松,氣不能順暢的流動。我們習慣於拉緊,應不斷的放鬆。當我們初學時,動作是緊繃繃的。我們學習知道那些動作是以心行氣,以氣運身,運而後動的動作。當肩關節能鬆開時,其它的都容易了,腳三關中踝關最難松。尾閭關鬆開後,氣可通上背部。 


== Never Ever Forget ==
李雅軒在《太極拳隨筆》中提出「鬆軟是太極拳的寶貝」,特別強調練太極拳要松,而且要大松,要松透。松得週身毫無拘滯之力,松得兩臂如繩兒吊著重物一樣,經常有沉甸甸重砣砣的感覺。身勢松得軟若無骨的樣子,但是這種大松大軟,不是軟塌塌,不是鬆懈懈,不是松得軟得如一攤稀泥。而是以神氣將身勢鼓勵起來,使它動盪起來,有強大而又靈敏的柔彈力。太極拳練習到了真正鬆了的階段,全身都有氣佈滿,前後左右都撐滿抱圓。李雅軒先生比喻為傘的撐開。傘不用時收起來,放鬆了;用時撐開,此時傘面是繃起來的。不是硬也不是懈,是整個鋪開的。整個傘面是完整的,傘面上的每一點都處於整體中,張力是均勻的。

=== 十三勢行功心解 ===
以心行氣,務令沈著,乃能收斂入骨。以氣運身,務令順遂,乃能便利從心。精神能提得起,則無遲重之虞,所謂頂頭懸也。意氣須換得靈,乃有圓活之趣,所謂轉變虛實也。發勁須沉著鬆淨,專注一方。立身須中正安舒,支撐八面。行氣如九曲珠,無往不利。運勁如百煉鋼,無堅不摧。形如搏兔之鶻。神如捕鼠之貓,靜如山岳,動如江河。蓄勁如張弓,發勁如放箭。曲中求直,蓄而後發。力由脊發,步隨身換。收即是放,斷而復連。往復須有摺疊,進退須有轉換。極柔軟,然後極堅剛。能呼吸,然後能靈活。氣以直養而無害,勁以曲蓄而有餘。心為令,氣為旗,腰為纛,先求展開,後求緊湊,乃可臻於縝密矣。


又曰:彼不動,己不動。彼微動,己先動。勁似鬆非鬆,將展未展,勁斷意不斷。又曰︰先在心,後在身,腹鬆氣沈入骨,神舒體靜,刻刻在心。切記一動無有不動,一靜無有不靜。牽動往來氣貼背,而斂入脊骨,內固精神,外示安逸。邁步如貓行,運勁如抽絲,全身意在精神,不在氣,在氣則滯。有氣則無力,無氣則純剛,氣若車輪,腰如車軸。

== Push hand (Cheng Man-Ching) ==
# Relax and yield to your opponent.
# The players are in constant touch as they execute the movements.
# Be guided by "feel"; detect your opponent's move before he begins.
# No resistance, every response should be a gentle one.
# In the context of the four movements making up this exercise there are four actions which must be distinguished.
## Adhere and lift (chan)
## Join (lien)
## Adhere horizontally (t'ieh)
## Attach from the rear (sui)
 
Chan and lien are up and down movements; t'ieh and sui are backward, forward and lateral movements.
 
== The essentials of pushing hand practice ==
# When your opponent strikes you with strength, instead of opposing him, you simply withdraw your body,neutralizing his weight - thus his weight will be emptied and will not come to your body.
# When attacking your opponent you should not attack him immediately. Your hands first must lightly touch his body and as soon as you interpret that he is going to resist you, you yield slightly and then immediately attack.
# When interpreting your opponent's energy you should not put too much weight against him during the time of interpretation. A Taichi Chuan devotee when performing 'pushing hand practive' must follow the above mentioned principles strictly so that his art progresses rapidly - otherwise, he will be doomed.
 
The interpreting, sticking, withdrawing and attacking energies are all involved in an instant.
 
== How to uproot your opponent ==
# Sound boxing is rooted in the foot, that it sprouts in the legs, is directed by the waist, and moves up to and functions through the waist. The feet, the legs, and the waist must move as one. When attacking you should have the concept of pushing slightly upward. Your front knee is bent and should not extend over the tiptoes of the foot, otherwise your energy will be dispersed.
# When both of your hands touch your opponent's body before attacking, you should not use too much force; otherwise you will give him a chance to interpret you and as soon as you start to attack him he can neutralize your weight slightly and you will fail to "up-root" him.
# When your hands lightly touch him you have to detect a slight wave of resistance in his body. By taking the advantage of his wave, you will be able to attack him decisively. It is rather difficult to detect the wave in a person. If you do "pushing hand practice" over a long period you will find it.
# When attacking your should not use force with both of your hands. Taichi Chuan classics say that when attacking it is necessary to aim at one direction of your opponent. To use force with both of your hands is technically known as double weighting and contracts the principles of Taichi Chuan.
# The position of your hands and arms to your body before attacking should remain the same as after attacking. The disproportionate stretching and shrinking of the hands and arms when attacking will effect the unified action of the tenacious energy from your leg and the efficacy of the "up-root" will be greatly decreased.
# When attacking you have to withdraw slightly with the concept of going downward first and then going up so that you can "up-root" your opponent. Taichi Chuan classics say that if you want to push upward you must first go downward. For instance, if you want to pull something up you have to push down first and the root will be naturally broken off.

== 太極拳理傳真 (張義敬) ==
* 弓步時小腿與地面垂直即可 不用膝蓋與腳尖對齊 (p39)
* 太極功夫最高者 找虛無的氣勢 (p40)
* 練拳要大鬆大軟 不是似鬆非鬆. 大鬆大軟 才能"極柔軟 然後極堅剛". (p43)
* 反對裹襠 (p43)
* 練拳當以沉勁為主 不可執意前推. 根基的穩定是靈活的穩定 是全身鬆了 重心自然下沉的穩定 不是死死壓住的穩定. 關節以靈活為用. 從任何一方都可以走弧形 運轉自由. (p43, p85)
* 太極拳動作緩慢 呼吸自然深長 是自然的氣功. 動中求靜是氣功 內勁節節貫串是導引. (p48)
* 練太極拳的三步驟: 練體 練氣 練神 (p57)
** 肢體要柔順 內氣要充盈 神經要寧靜
** 天天盤架子: 慢, 勻, 輕, 節節貫串.
** 輕與節節貫串 與生活中用力習慣 矛盾很大 最易被人忽視. 輕是鬆柔的前因.
** 手腳身的運動要有帶動周圍的空氣制若干距離
* 外家拳多以身殉技, 內家拳多以技養身 (p65)
* 對前輩名家在功夫上的成就重視不夠. 要多臨摹名家拳照. 強調太極拳的獨特拳味. (p72)
* 力的矛盾 手伸出去時要腰先動 在依肩,肘,腕,手指. (p78)
* 練太極拳最重視培養靈機 (p81)
* 有的拳師強調"練時無人如有人,用時有人如無人". 用之於外家拳可能是對的, 若用之於太極拳則是內外不分 => 要用意,在身內不在身外. 如想到身外的用法 則肯定不利於身內功力的增長 (p83)
* 分清虛實 - 由虛到實或實到虛都不可以驟變, 必須將重心的漸變又慢又勻地交替越細緻越清楚越好. 虛腳要雞蛋壓不破螞蟻踩不死方才合格. (p84)
* 下沉時要開襠/圓襠 (p88)
* 鬆柔是健康活潑 內含遣能. 懈是思想未到或只鬆不圓 未能節節貫串 (p114)
* 輕是鬆柔的前因  不輕就永遠沒有走向鬆柔的可能 . 對輕字重視不足 不輕就不鬆. (p115)
* 腰部靈活自如,槓桿力臂就由手到肩延伸到腰部 穫得省力效果. 再加上兩腳不段靈活調整重心, 就可以引進落空 避實擊虛 以柔克剛 (p109).
* 開展有助於練 緊湊有助於養(增加鬆軟,輕靈與聽勁靈敏度) (p121)
* 太極拳主要研究的就是黏勁. 黏是鬆柔的結果 (p130)
* 細察拳譜 其中絕大部分是在談鬆柔,說輕靈,講完整. 只有這樣才可以訓練出靈敏與高質量的黏勁來 (p131)
* 掤、履、擠、按、採、挒、肘、靠, 雖然在形式上有明顯的不同, 其實只是黏勁的八種用法 (p132)
* 掤、履等八法在運用的時候 多是黏勁,掤勁,沉勁的組合. (p132)
* 競技時即黏勁,化勁,拿勁,發勁四個過程 (p132)
* 掤勁是靈活的,成弧形的,可以化掉來力又可以反彈回去的柔軟的黏勁 而非以頂為掤 (p134)
* 發勁從外形來分有長勁與短勁兩種 (p134)
* 徐震 <太極拳發微> <span style="color: red">寧循理以求精 莫越理以爭勝</span> (p139)
* 發勁是運用由拳架中培養出來的軟彈力 (p148)
* 發勁要順勢 不可以用主觀意識去抓 卡 壓對方 然後再推出去. 要符合人不知我 我獨知人的原則. (p149)
* 練拳架時的慢是為了發勁時的快. 練拳時的輕是為發勁時的重. 練拳時的柔是為發勁時的剛. (p149)
* 推手漫談 (p150-156):
** 黏勁之妙在於靈: 不丟不頂
** 化勁之妙在於變: 引進落空
** 拿勁之妙在於堵: 堵對方的勁道
** 發勁之妙在於隨: 借力(身勢一沉 順勢一扔)
* 捨己從人 (p156)
* 以柔克剛 -- 一舉動 周身俱要輕靈,尤須貫串 (p162)
* 由於太極拳動作緩慢  呼吸自然深長 這就是氣功

== 沾連粘隨 ==
 
所謂沾連,是沾連住對方,順從不離,不與之發生抵抗,以感知對方勁路去向和大小,其中含有走化對方的"化勁"。 所謂粘隨,是如膠一樣粘住對方,彼去我隨而不使逃脫,其中含有粘逼對方的"粘勁"。 王宗岳《打手歌》:"沾連粘隨不丟頂"。 推手時不僅雙手要沾連粘隨,身法、步法也要有沾連粘隨之意,隨人之動而伸縮進退,不先不後,處處順應對手的變化。
 
[http://www.twword.com/wiki/%E7%B2%98%E9%80%A3%E9%BB%8F%E9%9A%A8 楊班候解釋]
* 沾者,'''提上拔高'''之謂也 「粘」有收提之意,將來勁引拔,使對方重心浮動,失其平衡:
* 粘者,'''留戀繾綣'''之謂也 「黏」有聽拿之意,既不發勁,也不脫離,使對方走也不得勁,抗也不得勁;
* 連者 '''舍己無離'''之謂也 「連」,捨己從人,可於退化中牽動其根而仆:
* 隨者 '''彼走此應'''之謂。 「隨」,彼走我進,可於前進中不等對方勢順逼其出局。
 
說得簡單一點,就是「人剛我柔謂之走,我順人背謂之粘」。

太极拳不是把長拳打慢就Ok. 要沾連粘隨 + 彼不動己不動, 雙方力量要融和在一起 進行交流 感到太极拳柔和 勁力的流動。
 
要分清攻守 以静待動。
 
套路只是給我們借助練習的一个橋梁 重要練習的是攻防。
 
单練與對練只差在對方有一力量在引導着你。

* 在虛實分明下,兩腿負荷身體的重量將會變大而開始酸痛 腿膝蓋周邊的大塊肌肉-股四頭肌(quadriceps)會愈加強壯。待兩腿經由酸痛過程後,開始也變得鬆坦時,身體的拙力就會開始往腳底落,此時已進入第 3 個層次「湧泉開始有根」了,
* 弓歩時若前腳膝蓋偏離腳尖,膝蓋會負荷身體部份重量,持續受力下便開始引起疼痛。
* 倒攆猴 - “倒攆猴”一式的奧妙,在於發沉勁時要松腰松胯,氣沉丹田,使勁由腳而腰達手,“倒攆猴”一式如何走沉勁?河北石家莊市 趙濟夫 先生曾在《武當》雜誌發表題為《對倒攆猴一式的練法的粗淺體會》一文,他是這樣論述的:“左倒攆猴左腳退步站住後,首先要屈左膝,落左胯,周身隨呼氣與腰,胯,襠下沉合為一勢,這時命門後撐,含胸拔背,沉肩墜肘,左腕背徹底鬆開,內勁蓄足,然後腰胯拉,隨身體左轉後移,重心偏于左腿,頂勁領起,氣沉丹田,並下行直達湧泉穴,左掌隨周身後移,向下沉落于左胯前外側,最後才是右腳掌碾正,右掌向前推出,形成沉,拉,打之勢。除倒攆猴之外,還有單鞭,雲手,搬攔捶,野馬分鬃,摟膝拗步等等,凡是有轉身的動作,幾乎都要下沉的身勢,這種沉勁的練習正是推手時產生“彈簧勁”的堅實基礎,所以“逢轉必沉”是楊氏太極拳拳架動作的一個普遍性規律。
* 松沉勁是利用重力行拳,而不是用體力蹬地把腳提起;松沉勁可使行拳中的貓步輕靈、圓活、自然。小孩意識淺,向上浮力小,又因為肢體柔軟,內氣通暢,保持了先天狀態的松沉本能,哭鬧時意氣向下墜,松沉向下柔軟沉重,因而難以抱起。推手時如果功夫不到,松沉勁沒練好,本能的“人體浮力”起作用,沉不下去,橫氣填胸,當然易被推出。 所以,不經過修煉,不除掉“人體浮力”,人體下盤得不到穩固,就會影響太極功能的發揮。形成“人體浮力”的兩大因素,一是向上的意識、意念,二是機體的伸縮緊張。 有了這個認識,修煉松沉勁就有了目標和方向。 其實修煉松沉勁的過程,就是改變兩大因素,逐步減掉“人體浮力”的過程。 練太極拳用減法,“人體浮力”徹底減掉了,松沉勁就練成了。
* When we withdraw, the movement must be made so the back foot continuously have a connection to the ground (節節貫串).
* Withdraw to 70% then stop withdrawing. Go ahead to sink or prepare to push.
* Two hands must have a connection with the opponent when we do push hands - ALWAYS.

Give thanks for the many lessons you've bestowed told us. We ask you to bless this food for the nourishment of our bodies.
 
“If I could give my younger self just one piece of advice, it would be this: Stop being so afraid! That’s really what strikes me when I look back – the sheer amount of time I spent tangled up in fears and doubts that were entirely of my own creation. I was afraid of not knowing the answer in class and looking stupid, or worried about what some boy thought of me, or wondering whether the other girls liked my clothes or my hair, or angsting about some offhand comment someone made to me in the lunchroom.” - [http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20860789,00.html Michelle Obama]
 
It's your life. Don't let anyone make you feel guilty for living it your way.
 
Our Heavenly Father. We give thanks for the pleasure. We give thanks for this food. We give thanks for life and all other blessings. We pray health and strength. We ask in the name of Christ. Our Heavenly Father.
 
God’s timing is always timely: Galatians 6:9 (NIV) Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
 
Don’t pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one. – Bruce Lee
 
Mastery of anything is simply mastery of the basics.
 
God is great. God is good. Let us thank him, for our food. By his hand, we are fed, give us, Lord, our daily bread.
 
For good friends, good food, good family, all our blessings O'Lord, we thank thee.

CMC Taichi Form (鄭子三十七式)

  • Wikipedia about 鄭曼青 and lineage tree with Yang-style focus.

一舉動周身俱要輕靈,尤須貫串。氣宜鼓盪,神宜內斂,無使有缺陷處,無使有凹凸處,無使有斷續處。其根在腳,發於腿,主宰於腰,行於手指,由腳而腿而腰,總須完整一氣,向前退後,乃能得機得勢。有不得機得勢處,身便散亂,其病必於腰腿求之,上下前後左右皆然。凡此皆是意,不在外面,有上即有下,有前則有後,有左則有右。如意要向上,即寓下意,若將物掀起而加以挫之之力。斯其根自斷,乃壞之速而無疑。虛實宜分清楚,一處有一處虛實,處處總此一虛實,周身節節貫串,無令絲毫間斷耳。

長拳者,如長江大海,滔滔不絕也。掤、履、擠、按、採、挒、肘、靠,此八卦也。進步、退步、左顧、右盼、中定,此五行也。掤、履、擠、按,即乾、坤、坎、離、四正方也。採、挒、肘、靠,即巽、震、兌、艮、四斜角也。進退盼顧定,即金木水火土也,合之則為十三勢也。

太極拳論 (王宗岳著)

太極者無極而生。陰陽之母也。動之則分。靜之則合。無過不及。隨曲就伸。人剛我柔謂之走。我順人背謂之黏。動急則急應。動緩則緩隨。雖變化萬端。而理為一貫。由著熟而漸悟懂勁。由懂勁而階及神明。然非功力之久。不能豁然貫通焉。虛靈頂勁。氣沈丹田。不偏不倚。忽隱忽現。左重則左虛。右重則右杳。仰之則彌高。俯之則彌深。進之則愈長。退之則愈促。一羽不能加。蠅蟲不能落。人不知我。我獨知人。英雄所向無敵。蓋皆由此而及也。斯技旁門甚多。雖勢有區別。概不外乎壯欺弱。慢讓快耳。有力打無力。手慢讓手快。是皆先天自然之能。非關學力而有為也。察四兩撥千斤之句。顯非力勝。觀耄耋能禦眾之形。快何能為。立如平準。活似車輪。偏沉則隨。雙重則滯。每見數年純功。不能運化者。率自為人制。雙重之病未悟耳。欲避此病。須知陰陽相濟。方為懂勁。懂勁後。愈練愈精。默識揣摩。漸至從心所欲。本是舍己從人。多誤舍近求遠。所謂差之毫釐。謬以千里。學者不可不詳辨焉。是為論。

十三勢行功心解

以心行氣,務令沈著,乃能收斂入骨。以氣運身,務令順遂,乃能便利從心。精神能提得起,則無遲重之虞,所謂頂頭懸也。意氣須換得靈,乃有圓活之趣,所謂轉變虛實也。發勁須沉著鬆淨,專注一方。立身須中正安舒,支撐八面。行氣如九曲珠,無往不利。運勁如百煉鋼,無堅不摧。形如搏兔之鶻。神如捕鼠之貓,靜如山岳,動如江河。蓄勁如張弓,發勁如放箭。曲中求直,蓄而後發。力由脊發,步隨身換。收即是放,斷而復連。往復須有摺疊,進退須有轉換。極柔軟,然後極堅剛。能呼吸,然後能靈活。氣以直養而無害,勁以曲蓄而有餘。心為令,氣為旗,腰為纛,先求展開,後求緊湊,乃可臻於縝密矣。

又曰:彼不動,己不動。彼微動,己先動。勁似鬆非鬆,將展未展,勁斷意不斷。又曰︰先在心,後在身,腹鬆氣沈入骨,神舒體靜,刻刻在心。切記一動無有不動,一靜無有不靜。牽動往來氣貼背,而斂入脊骨,內固精神,外示安逸。邁步如貓行,運勁如抽絲,全身意在精神,不在氣,在氣則滯。有氣則無力,無氣則純剛,氣若車輪,腰如車軸。

十三勢歌

十三總勢莫輕識,命意源頭在腰隙;變轉虛實須留意,氣遍身軀不梢滞。 靜中觸動動猶靜,因敵變化是神奇;勢勢存心揆用意,得來不覺費工夫。 刻刻留意在腰間,腹內鬆靜氣騰然;尾閭中正神貫頂,滿身輕利頂頭懸。 仔細留心向推求,屈伸開合聽自由;入門引路須口授,功夫無息法自休。 若言體用何為準,意氣君來骨肉臣;詳推用意終何在,益壽延年不老春。 歌兮歌兮百四十,字字真切義無疑;若不向此推求去,枉費工夫遺歎惜。

SONG OF PUSH HANDS

太極拳十要 (楊澄甫口授,陳微明筆述)

English translation

一、虛靈頂勁 (straightening the head):頂勁者,頭容正直,神貫於頂也。不可用力,用力則項強,血氣不能流通,須有虛靈自然之意。非有虛靈頂勁,則精神不能提起也。

二、含胸拔背 (correct position of chest and back):含胸者,胸略內涵,使氣沉於丹田也。胸忌挺出,挺出則氣擁於胸際,上重下輕,腳根易於浮起。拔背者,氣貼於背也。能含胸則自能拔背,能拔背則力能由背發,所向無敵也。

三、鬆腰 (relaxation of waist):腰為一身主宰,能鬆腰後兩足有力,下盤穩固。虛實變化,皆由腰動。故曰命意源頭在腰際,有不得力,必於腰腿求之也。

四、分虛實 (solid and empty stance):太極拳以分虛實為第一義。如全身皆坐在右腿,則右腿為實,左腿為虛。全身坐在左腿,則左腿為實,右腿為虛。虛實能分,而後轉動輕靈,毫不用力。如不能分,則邁步重滯,自立不穩,而易為人所牽動。

五、沉肩墜肘 (sinking shoulders and elbows):沉肩者,肩鬆開下垂也。若不能鬆垂,兩肩端起,則氣亦隨之而上,全身皆不得力矣。墜肘者,肘往下鬆墜之意。肘若懸起,則肩不能沉,放人不遠,近於外家拳之斷勁矣。

六、用意不用力 (using the mind instead of force):太極拳論所云,全是用意不用力。練太極拳,全身鬆開,不使有絲毫之拙力以留滯於筋骨血脈之間,以自束縛,然後能輕靈變化,圓轉自如。或疑不用力,何以能長力?蓋人身之有經絡,如地之有溝洫。溝恤不塞而水行,筋絡不閉而氣通。如渾身僵勁充滿經絡,氣血停滯,轉動不靈,牽一髮而全身動矣。若不用力而用意,意之所屆,氣即至焉。如是氣血流注,日日貫輸,周流全身,無時停滯,長久練習,則其真正內勁,即太極拳論中所云,極柔軟然後能極堅剛也。太極拳功夫純熟之人,臂膊如棉裹鐵,分量極沉。練外家拳者,用力則顯有力,不用力時則甚輕浮,可見其力乃外勁浮面之勁也。外家拳之力最易引動,不足尚也。

七、上下相隨 (coordination of upper and lower parts):上下相隨者,即太極拳論中所云,其根在腳,發於腿,主宰於腰,形於手指,由腳而腿而腰,總須完整一氣也。手動腰動足動,眼神亦隨之動,如是方可謂上下相隨,有一不動,即散亂也。

八、內外相合 (harmony between the internal and external parts):太極所練在神,故云神為主帥,身為軀使。精袖能提得起自然舉動輕靈。架子不外虛實開合。所謂開者,不但手足開,心意亦與之俱開;所謂合者,不但手足合,心意亦與之俱合:能內外合為一氣,則渾然無間矣。

九、相連不斷 (importance of continuity):外家拳術,其勁乃後天之拙勁,故有起有止,有續有斷。舊力已斷,新力未生地時,最易為人所乘。太極拳用意不用力,自始至終,綿綿不斷,周而復始,循環無窮,原論所謂,如長江大河滔滔不絕。又曰,運勁如抽絲,皆言其貫串一氣也。

十、動中求靜動靜合一 (tranquility in movement):外家拳以跳擲為能,用盡氣力,故練習之後,無不氣喘者。太極拳以靜制動,雖動猶靜。故練架子愈慢愈好,慢者呼吸深長。氣沉丹田,自無血脈僨張之弊。學者細心體會,庶可得其意焉。

太極拳之練習談 — 楊澄甫口述張鴻逵筆錄

https://kknews.cc/news/yal99on.html

太極拳之程序,先練拳架(屬於徒手),如太極拳、太極長拳;其次單手推挽、原地推手、活步推手、大捋、散手;再次則器械,如太極劍、太極刀、太極槍(十三槍)等是也。

練習時間,每日起床後兩遍,若晨起無暇,則睡前兩遍。一日之中,應練習七八次,至少晨昏各一遍。但醉後、飽食後,皆宜避忌。

吳圖南 松八段九節

太極拳的最大秘密

吳圖南先生說:「太極拳之秘,在於松八段九節。」練習太極拳架時把八段九節真正鬆開才可稱為著熟,這是學習太極拳的關鍵。松,最先全身不能有力。全身有九個關節要鬆開。三個在手,三個在腳,三個在背。手三關節是腕、肘、肩。腳三關是胯、膝蓋、踝。背三關是尾閭、頸、頭頂。九關之中最重要是手三關,首先要把手三關鬆開,第一是腕關,接著是肘而肩。肩關是最難松。「鬆肩」忌壓肩,要順著兩側45度斜下松落,將肩井穴張開,降於湧泉穴中。如何才能鬆開關節?首先是鬆開關節之間的腱,接著骨,要不斷的鬆開關節之間的腱。關節之間不松,氣不能順暢的流動。我們習慣於拉緊,應不斷的放鬆。當我們初學時,動作是緊繃繃的。我們學習知道那些動作是以心行氣,以氣運身,運而後動的動作。當肩關節能鬆開時,其它的都容易了,腳三關中踝關最難松。尾閭關鬆開後,氣可通上背部。

李雅軒在《太極拳隨筆》中提出「鬆軟是太極拳的寶貝」,特別強調練太極拳要松,而且要大松,要松透。松得週身毫無拘滯之力,松得兩臂如繩兒吊著重物一樣,經常有沉甸甸重砣砣的感覺。身勢松得軟若無骨的樣子,但是這種大松大軟,不是軟塌塌,不是鬆懈懈,不是松得軟得如一攤稀泥。而是以神氣將身勢鼓勵起來,使它動盪起來,有強大而又靈敏的柔彈力。太極拳練習到了真正鬆了的階段,全身都有氣佈滿,前後左右都撐滿抱圓。李雅軒先生比喻為傘的撐開。傘不用時收起來,放鬆了;用時撐開,此時傘面是繃起來的。不是硬也不是懈,是整個鋪開的。整個傘面是完整的,傘面上的每一點都處於整體中,張力是均勻的。

太極拳答問 (陳微明)

Yang Cheng Fu’s Ten Principles on Tai Chi Chuan

http://taichivancouver.com/yang-cheng-fus-ten-principles-on-tai-chi-chuan/

楊氏太極拳述真

Push hand (Cheng Man-Ching)

  1. Relax and yield to your opponent.
  2. The players are in constant touch as they execute the movements.
  3. Be guided by "feel"; detect your opponent's move before he begins.
  4. No resistance, every response should be a gentle one.
  5. In the context of the four movements making up this exercise there are four actions which must be distinguished.
    1. Adhere and lift (chan)
    2. Join (lien)
    3. Adhere horizontally (t'ieh)
    4. Attach from the rear (sui)

Chan and lien are up and down movements; t'ieh and sui are backward, forward and lateral movements.

The essentials of pushing hand practice

  1. When your opponent strikes you with strength, instead of opposing him, you simply withdraw your body,neutralizing his weight - thus his weight will be emptied and will not come to your body.
  2. When attacking your opponent you should not attack him immediately. Your hands first must lightly touch his body and as soon as you interpret that he is going to resist you, you yield slightly and then immediately attack.
  3. When interpreting your opponent's energy you should not put too much weight against him during the time of interpretation. A Taichi Chuan devotee when performing 'pushing hand practive' must follow the above mentioned principles strictly so that his art progresses rapidly - otherwise, he will be doomed.

The interpreting, sticking, withdrawing and attacking energies are all involved in an instant.

How to uproot your opponent

  1. Sound boxing is rooted in the foot, that it sprouts in the legs, is directed by the waist, and moves up to and functions through the waist. The feet, the legs, and the waist must move as one. When attacking you should have the concept of pushing slightly upward. Your front knee is bent and should not extend over the tiptoes of the foot, otherwise your energy will be dispersed.
  2. When both of your hands touch your opponent's body before attacking, you should not use too much force; otherwise you will give him a chance to interpret you and as soon as you start to attack him he can neutralize your weight slightly and you will fail to "up-root" him.
  3. When your hands lightly touch him you have to detect a slight wave of resistance in his body. By taking the advantage of his wave, you will be able to attack him decisively. It is rather difficult to detect the wave in a person. If you do "pushing hand practice" over a long period you will find it.
  4. When attacking your should not use force with both of your hands. Taichi Chuan classics say that when attacking it is necessary to aim at one direction of your opponent. To use force with both of your hands is technically known as double weighting and contracts the principles of Taichi Chuan.
  5. The position of your hands and arms to your body before attacking should remain the same as after attacking. The disproportionate stretching and shrinking of the hands and arms when attacking will effect the unified action of the tenacious energy from your leg and the efficacy of the "up-root" will be greatly decreased.
  6. When attacking you have to withdraw slightly with the concept of going downward first and then going up so that you can "up-root" your opponent. Taichi Chuan classics say that if you want to push upward you must first go downward. For instance, if you want to pull something up you have to push down first and the root will be naturally broken off.

太極拳理傳真 (張義敬)

  • 弓步時小腿與地面垂直即可 不用膝蓋與腳尖對齊 (p39)
  • 太極功夫最高者 找虛無的氣勢 (p40)
  • 練拳要大鬆大軟 不是似鬆非鬆. 大鬆大軟 才能"極柔軟 然後極堅剛". (p43)
  • 反對裹襠 (p43)
  • 練拳當以沉勁為主 不可執意前推. 根基的穩定是靈活的穩定 是全身鬆了 重心自然下沉的穩定 不是死死壓住的穩定. 關節以靈活為用. 從任何一方都可以走弧形 運轉自由. (p43, p85)
  • 太極拳動作緩慢 呼吸自然深長 是自然的氣功. 動中求靜是氣功 內勁節節貫串是導引. (p48)
  • 練太極拳的三步驟: 練體 練氣 練神 (p57)
    • 肢體要柔順 內氣要充盈 神經要寧靜
    • 天天盤架子: 慢, 勻, 輕, 節節貫串.
    • 輕與節節貫串 與生活中用力習慣 矛盾很大 最易被人忽視. 輕是鬆柔的前因.
    • 手腳身的運動要有帶動周圍的空氣制若干距離
  • 外家拳多以身殉技, 內家拳多以技養身 (p65)
  • 對前輩名家在功夫上的成就重視不夠. 要多臨摹名家拳照. 強調太極拳的獨特拳味. (p72)
  • 力的矛盾 手伸出去時要腰先動 在依肩,肘,腕,手指. (p78)
  • 練太極拳最重視培養靈機 (p81)
  • 有的拳師強調"練時無人如有人,用時有人如無人". 用之於外家拳可能是對的, 若用之於太極拳則是內外不分 => 要用意,在身內不在身外. 如想到身外的用法 則肯定不利於身內功力的增長 (p83)
  • 分清虛實 - 由虛到實或實到虛都不可以驟變, 必須將重心的漸變又慢又勻地交替越細緻越清楚越好. 虛腳要雞蛋壓不破螞蟻踩不死方才合格. (p84)
  • 下沉時要開襠/圓襠 (p88)
  • 鬆柔是健康活潑 內含遣能. 懈是思想未到或只鬆不圓 未能節節貫串 (p114)
  • 輕是鬆柔的前因 不輕就永遠沒有走向鬆柔的可能 . 對輕字重視不足 不輕就不鬆. (p115)
  • 腰部靈活自如,槓桿力臂就由手到肩延伸到腰部 穫得省力效果. 再加上兩腳不段靈活調整重心, 就可以引進落空 避實擊虛 以柔克剛 (p109).
  • 開展有助於練 緊湊有助於養(增加鬆軟,輕靈與聽勁靈敏度) (p121)
  • 太極拳主要研究的就是黏勁. 黏是鬆柔的結果 (p130)
  • 細察拳譜 其中絕大部分是在談鬆柔,說輕靈,講完整. 只有這樣才可以訓練出靈敏與高質量的黏勁來 (p131)
  • 掤、履、擠、按、採、挒、肘、靠, 雖然在形式上有明顯的不同, 其實只是黏勁的八種用法 (p132)
  • 掤、履等八法在運用的時候 多是黏勁,掤勁,沉勁的組合. (p132)
  • 競技時即黏勁,化勁,拿勁,發勁四個過程 (p132)
  • 掤勁是靈活的,成弧形的,可以化掉來力又可以反彈回去的柔軟的黏勁 而非以頂為掤 (p134)
  • 發勁從外形來分有長勁與短勁兩種 (p134)
  • 徐震 <太極拳發微> 寧循理以求精 莫越理以爭勝 (p139)
  • 發勁是運用由拳架中培養出來的軟彈力 (p148)
  • 發勁要順勢 不可以用主觀意識去抓 卡 壓對方 然後再推出去. 要符合人不知我 我獨知人的原則. (p149)
  • 練拳架時的慢是為了發勁時的快. 練拳時的輕是為發勁時的重. 練拳時的柔是為發勁時的剛. (p149)
  • 推手漫談 (p150-156):
    • 黏勁之妙在於靈: 不丟不頂
    • 化勁之妙在於變: 引進落空
    • 拿勁之妙在於堵: 堵對方的勁道
    • 發勁之妙在於隨: 借力(身勢一沉 順勢一扔)
  • 捨己從人 (p156)
  • 以柔克剛 -- 一舉動 周身俱要輕靈,尤須貫串 (p162)
  • 由於太極拳動作緩慢 呼吸自然深長 這就是氣功

身鬆軟

身鬆軟 身手越沉重 感到空氣阻力增大 增加聽勁力 越能隨己從人 不丟不頂 .

鬆柔是一種漂浮感,一種黏隨感,一種融合感,是一種因敵成體順人而動的過程,是敵急則急應敵緩則緩隨,不多一分不少一分的應對。

太極拳一舉動周身俱要輕靈

輕靈 means

  • 己身不受力
  • 前提是鬆柔、分清虛實、不頂不抗、不用拙力
  • 提昇靈敏度
  • 降低能量損耗

What is 勁

掤勁

基本功: 腰沉, 胯松, 襠撐, 膝活, 腿踢。掤勁本質上是力,必然符合力學原理。要有整勁, 意到氣到、氣到勁到

推手基本功练习法

黄性贤老师演示推手基本功练习法 (video)

沾連粘隨

所謂沾連,是沾連住對方,順從不離,不與之發生抵抗,以感知對方勁路去向和大小,其中含有走化對方的"化勁"。 所謂粘隨,是如膠一樣粘住對方,彼去我隨而不使逃脫,其中含有粘逼對方的"粘勁"。 王宗岳《打手歌》:"沾連粘隨不丟頂"。 推手時不僅雙手要沾連粘隨,身法、步法也要有沾連粘隨之意,隨人之動而伸縮進退,不先不後,處處順應對手的變化。

楊班候解釋

  • 沾者,提上拔高之謂也 「粘」有收提之意,將來勁引拔,使對方重心浮動,失其平衡:
  • 粘者,留戀繾綣之謂也 「黏」有聽拿之意,既不發勁,也不脫離,使對方走也不得勁,抗也不得勁;
  • 連者 舍己無離之謂也 「連」,捨己從人,可於退化中牽動其根而仆:
  • 隨者 彼走此應之謂。 「隨」,彼走我進,可於前進中不等對方勢順逼其出局。

說得簡單一點,就是「人剛我柔謂之走,我順人背謂之粘」。

浅释《杨氏太极拳老谱》之《粘黏连随》

  • 粘: 推手中搭手要轻, 通过引化对方来劲, 使对方不知不觉中相应的加大了力度和速度而扑空 但是同时己方手上的掤劲不能丢。

太极拳不是把長拳打慢

太极拳不是把長拳打慢就Ok. 要沾連粘隨 + 彼不動己不動, 雙方力量要融和在一起 進行交流 感到太极拳柔和 勁力的流動。

要分清攻守 以静待動。

套路只是給我們借助練習的一个橋梁 重要練習的是攻防。

单練與對練只差在對方有一力量在引導着你。

  • "力"來自於橫紋肌的收縮,從外表上有形跡顯示。 "勁"的產生於"意念",來源於氣,出自於無形。 "勁"出於無形.不易度量。"勁"因出於意念,因而作用時間可長可短。

  • 力的過程 提水 握手 腰部先動 肩 肘 腕 再手. 不是手先動 .
  • 立身中正(=虛靈頂勁 +下沉丹田), 但上身不可呆滯 (違背'一動無有不動')
  • 用意不用力(少用力) 手要輕 輕才可以培養觸覺.
  • 腳要靈活有彈性 鬆柔(式式有起有沉) 開襠沉氣
  • 處處有虛實 不可驟變 慢勻細緻

  • 松沉劲怎样才能练出来
  • 在虛實分明下,兩腿負荷身體的重量將會變大而開始酸痛 腿膝蓋周邊的大塊肌肉-股四頭肌(quadriceps)會愈加強壯。待兩腿經由酸痛過程後,開始也變得鬆坦時,身體的拙力就會開始往腳底落,此時已進入第 3 個層次「湧泉開始有根」了,
  • 弓歩時若前腳膝蓋偏離腳尖,膝蓋會負荷身體部份重量,持續受力下便開始引起疼痛。
  • 倒攆猴 - “倒攆猴”一式的奧妙,在於發沉勁時要松腰松胯,氣沉丹田,使勁由腳而腰達手,“倒攆猴”一式如何走沉勁?河北石家莊市 趙濟夫 先生曾在《武當》雜誌發表題為《對倒攆猴一式的練法的粗淺體會》一文,他是這樣論述的:“左倒攆猴左腳退步站住後,首先要屈左膝,落左胯,周身隨呼氣與腰,胯,襠下沉合為一勢,這時命門後撐,含胸拔背,沉肩墜肘,左腕背徹底鬆開,內勁蓄足,然後腰胯拉,隨身體左轉後移,重心偏于左腿,頂勁領起,氣沉丹田,並下行直達湧泉穴,左掌隨周身後移,向下沉落于左胯前外側,最後才是右腳掌碾正,右掌向前推出,形成沉,拉,打之勢。除倒攆猴之外,還有單鞭,雲手,搬攔捶,野馬分鬃,摟膝拗步等等,凡是有轉身的動作,幾乎都要下沉的身勢,這種沉勁的練習正是推手時產生“彈簧勁”的堅實基礎,所以“逢轉必沉”是楊氏太極拳拳架動作的一個普遍性規律。
  • 松沉勁是利用重力行拳,而不是用體力蹬地把腳提起;松沉勁可使行拳中的貓步輕靈、圓活、自然。小孩意識淺,向上浮力小,又因為肢體柔軟,內氣通暢,保持了先天狀態的松沉本能,哭鬧時意氣向下墜,松沉向下柔軟沉重,因而難以抱起。推手時如果功夫不到,松沉勁沒練好,本能的“人體浮力”起作用,沉不下去,橫氣填胸,當然易被推出。 所以,不經過修煉,不除掉“人體浮力”,人體下盤得不到穩固,就會影響太極功能的發揮。形成“人體浮力”的兩大因素,一是向上的意識、意念,二是機體的伸縮緊張。 有了這個認識,修煉松沉勁就有了目標和方向。 其實修煉松沉勁的過程,就是改變兩大因素,逐步減掉“人體浮力”的過程。 練太極拳用減法,“人體浮力”徹底減掉了,松沉勁就練成了。
  • When we withdraw, the movement must be made so the back foot continuously have a connection to the ground (節節貫串).
  • Withdraw to 70% then stop withdrawing. Go ahead to sink or prepare to push.
  • Two hands must have a connection with the opponent when we do push hands - ALWAYS.

靜坐的科學、醫學與心靈之旅:21世紀最實用的身心轉化指南 by 楊定一

What Type of Exercise Is Best for the Brain?

體能、技術與靈活

Give thanks for the many lessons you've bestowed told us. We ask you to bless this food for the nourishment of our bodies.

“If I could give my younger self just one piece of advice, it would be this: Stop being so afraid! That’s really what strikes me when I look back – the sheer amount of time I spent tangled up in fears and doubts that were entirely of my own creation. I was afraid of not knowing the answer in class and looking stupid, or worried about what some boy thought of me, or wondering whether the other girls liked my clothes or my hair, or angsting about some offhand comment someone made to me in the lunchroom.” - Michelle Obama

It's your life. Don't let anyone make you feel guilty for living it your way.

Our Heavenly Father. We give thanks for the pleasure. We give thanks for this food. We give thanks for life and all other blessings. We pray health and strength. We ask in the name of Christ. Our Heavenly Father.

God’s timing is always timely: Galatians 6:9 (NIV) Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Don’t pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one. – Bruce Lee

Mastery of anything is simply mastery of the basics.

God is great. God is good. Let us thank him, for our food. By his hand, we are fed, give us, Lord, our daily bread.

For good friends, good food, good family, all our blessings O'Lord, we thank thee.
