In the era of cold weapons, the existence of martial arts exists for the weak to defeat the strong!
Simply put, the original meaning of Eastern Martial Arts is to fight without distinction!
No matter what kind of body shape you have, no matter what kind of physique you have, you can find the most suitable martial arts to practice and make yourself stronger!
This is the biggest difference between Eastern martial arts and Western fighting!
Of course, generally speaking, people with tall and strong bodies always have greater advantages in practicing martial arts, just like the legendary beings with natural divine power. Once such people practice martial arts, it is often easy Become a God of War character!
¡°For example, Xiang Yu, for example, Li Yuanba, they all belong to this category
However, this does not mean that people who are thin and short do not have the capital to learn martial arts. After all, things like bones are relative rather than absolute. Different martial arts sects have different martial arts. Techniques naturally require people with different abilities to practice them. Some small skills such as assassination or disguise and shrinking bones are naturally not the kind of skills that burly warriors can dabble in
Of course, no matter what kind of martial arts, in essence, the ultimate goal is to kill the enemy!
??There is no need for the existence of martial arts that cannot kill people, and there is no need for the existence of martial artists who cannot kill people!
This point is beyond doubt!
As for the so-called martial ethics, the so-called cultural connotation of martial arts, or the effects of martial arts on strengthening the body and extending life, these are all things that need to be considered only when one is strong enough to a certain extent!
In fact, many practical martial arts do not have the so-called function of nourishing the body. Not only can they not nourish the body, but they can easily injure the body. Just like the Seven Injury Fists in martial arts novels, you hurt yourself first, then Hurt the enemy again!
If you want to prolong your life and strengthen your body, you must reach an extremely high level of martial arts to be able to do it!
In other words, if you practice martial arts to the point where you can maintain your health, you have actually reached a point where you are almost returning to your original nature!
In the beginning, when people practiced martial arts, they could not control the damage to their bodies at all. Every time they exercised their bodies, hidden injuries would accumulate inside the body due to exercise, especially the internal organs of the human body, which are inherently weaker than the muscles and bones. It's so fragile that you don't feel it when you are young, but once you get older, these hidden wounds will easily burst out!
The stronger the body, the greater the burden on the internal organs. There are not a few people who are full of muscles who eventually die from heart-related diseases. In the final analysis, the burden placed on the heart by the muscles is too heavy. Relationship!
And this is the origin of the so-called internal strength. External strength exercises the warrior's body, while internal strength tempers a person's internal organs. When the internal organs become stronger, although a person will not gain an improvement in force, it can increase the upper limit of the ability to withstand exercise. Endurance can also be greatly improved. The stronger the internal organs, the more musculoskeletal ones can be improved without damaging the body
The so-called "cultivation both internally and externally" is the truth!
In fact, this is also one of the more obvious differences between Eastern warriors and Western fighters. Some Eastern warriors who are both internal and external, even if they are old, can still have a strong burst and defeat some young warriors or fighters. Home, and Western fighters usually reach their peak fighting ability when they are young, but once they get older, they will be covered in injuries
In fact, this is not only seen in Western fighters, but also in Eastern warriors. This situation is not uncommon, especially for those warriors who focus on fierce martial arts and do not exercise their internal organs. This is the case. As you get older, your physical fitness will immediately decline exponentially. Let alone beating people, even life will be difficult
???In the final analysis, it¡¯s because the internal organs lack exercise, but the musculoskeletal muscles are too strong!
This is not just for martial artists. Many athletes in sports such as long-distance running or weightlifting will also encounter the same problem after retirement. In the final analysis, the body is squeezed too much when they are young, which eventually leads to the body being overwhelmed ¡
In fact, it is not that Western martial artists have not considered similar issues. They also have some methods of exercising their internal organs. For example, yoga is a typical example. Yoga is a health-preserving method and does not have any practical effects. Actual combat ability, at best, only improves a person's ability to resist blows and endurance, but this kind of physical fitness can exactly prolongMany Western fighters have a fighting career, especially those that are particularly fierce in boxing such as Muay Thai. If they do not practice yoga and take care of their bodies with related secret medicines, they will basically lose their ability by the time they are finished. My body is worn out by training
In the same way, kung fu skills such as the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Cloth Shirt also require soups made from related medicinal herbs to coordinate the training. Simply performing resistance training will only kill and maim people. It is simply impossible to achieve the effect of invulnerability
In fact, for people who practice martial arts, exercising their own muscles is a shortcut to becoming stronger, but the stronger the muscles, the heavier the burden on the individual's heart will actually become. That is why all Eastern The martial artists never pay attention to the so-called muscle training. The so-called external training of muscles, bones and skin, and the internal training of one breath are just like this
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out to strengthen the destructive power and resistance to blows. Practicing one breath internally exercises your internal organs, thereby reducing the hidden damage your internal organs receive during external training
This is why practitioners of traditional Chinese martial arts are rarely muscular. Most of the time, practitioners of Chinese martial arts have a lean appearance, and some even look no different from ordinary people. , this is actually a manifestation of practicing Chinese martial arts to the point of returning to nature
However, with the changes of the times, the true inheritance of martial arts has inevitably become lonely. This is why many people feel that traditional martial arts do not have actual combat functions. Many martial arts masters who look like liars, in the past, Most of them are real masters, but in modern society, most of them are real liars
Of course, in a sense, the fundamental reason for the decline of traditional martial arts lies in the changes in the social environment!
Warriors lack the training and necessity of actual combat, so actual combat will naturally evolve into routines
In fact, even if a warrior has learned the methods of actual combat and obtained a certain amount of true knowledge of national martial arts, he or she may not necessarily have strong enough actual combat abilities. In the final analysis, the actual combat ability itself will always come from one battle after another. The most fundamental reason why Eastern warriors in the Cold Weapon Age were forged in actual battles was that their strength was born from life-and-death battles in actual battles one after another!
Without experiencing life-and-death combat, it will be difficult to substantially improve your actual combat level!
"In the final analysis, a warrior's strength is still based on actual fighting!"
In the era of cold weapons, the battlefield is the best place to train your martial arts will. Long-term fighting will make each martial art be trained to the point of being refined. Every veteran who can survive on the battlefield will be counted as one. He naturally became a master!
Being on the battlefield is essentially a process of rushing through waves. Masters may not necessarily be able to survive on the battlefield, but those who can survive on the battlefield must be real masters!
Because of this, among all the warriors in this era, they are actually the most powerful!
" Flying over a wall, crossing a river with a reed, in martial arts novels may be exaggerated, but in the era of cold weapons, it is definitely not an illusion to hold iron into clay
In modern society, although martial arts has begun to decline, real masters of martial arts still emerge in endlessly. The reason is also very simple, because in modern society, although wars are not as frequent as in the cold weapon era, masters of martial arts still emerge in endlessly. However, there are still many people who joined the army to hone their skills. In addition, the martial arts competitions at that time were basically life or death
Yes, life or death!
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The competition is just between the elders and the younger generations. The competition between warriors with similar strength is basically a matter of life and death
For skilled warriors, if they simply want to determine the winner, it is basically enough to just put their hands together. Two masters of martial arts can hear each other's strength by putting their hands together. A simple battle can clarify the strength level of both parties
Because of this, in all situations where fighting is not necessary, martial arts masters can usually decide the winner by joining hands
And if you really want to take action, it often means a life-or-death battle!
In fact, from ancient times to modern times, challenges between martial arts masters were almost never allowed to be rejected! Even if the warrior being challenged is old, sick, seriously injured, or disabled, such a challenge cannot be refused!
? ?Unless this warrior is willing to withdraw from the world, any challenge must be accepted!
If a person wants to be famous, he must accept everyone¡¯s challenges. Only by defeating all challengers can he be truly called invincible
"It's like Tai Chi Yang Luchan's invincible name, which is typed out one by one"
For the warriors of that era, as long as they were warriors with little reputation, they were walking on thin ice almost every moment, because they might encounter challenges from other warriors at any time, and if they refused to challenge, they would have to do it themselves. Take off the sign, withdraw from the world, and seal your own fist!
Of course, if you encounter something wrong with yourself, you are old or seriously injured, and you don¡¯t want to quit the world when you face challenges, there is no way to remedy it. The most common way is to let your introductory disciples, the so-called introductory disciples, Basically, it is equivalent to a true inheritor of a warrior's martial arts. If the master encounters a challenge, the entry-level disciple can fight for the master. This is why every warrior must carefully train his disciples after his old age and strength decline. In fact In fact, it is the existence of this mechanism that enables the true inheritance of martial arts to be passed down from generation to generation
This is the saying that once you enter the world, you can¡¯t help yourself!
In the past, as long as you became a warrior, a life-and-death battle could come anytime, anywhere. Sometimes, even if you knew the result would be death, a warrior could not escape from the battle. Under this premise, almost all warriors in the past were Someone who has some real skills
In modern society, the situation is different. Whether you encounter a so-called kick-out or a so-called life-or-death challenge, the problem can be solved by directly calling the police. Even if you don't call the police, you can easily sanction the challenger by mobilizing public opinion. In this case Under such circumstances, how can martial arts not decline?
