At first, Wang saw that Liu Yuwu suffered from tuberculosis and lung disease, and taught him to practice health and basic skills first. After nine months, he was able to get rid of his illness. Then, he started practicing Shaolin Rifle Fist. At that time, Liu Yuwu was in the train package crew running Harbin - Xuzhou line, on the way to and from five days, five days off. Every time he arrived home, he went straight to the martial arts museum, practicing late at night 11, 2 o'clock before going back. He kept in mind that "the force is generated in the heel" of the teacher's instructions, just practicing stance, jaw, inside and outside the three new rubber shoes, a month to wear through the soles of the shoes, Wushu Hall footprints on the ground, there are more than an inch deep pits of earth. Every time after practicing, tired of his two legs can not open the big bolt, two feet like lead like to help hard. It is this kind of devotion that has won Wang's heart.

Liu Yuwu, but also the use of sports car leisure opportunities, in Cangzhou and Jinan and other places, to the eight pole master Hu Wantong, Li Zhanchen door to learn the art, to Wu Fengming learn the Qinglong sword and the wind demon Yan Ling dagger, the long of all, the benefit is really not shallow. However, Liu Yuwu practiced iron ball kneading, originally inspired by a story mentioned by Wang Lao: seventeen years ago, after a practice, Wang Lao told his students an interesting story of martial arts: Hebei Cangzhou "Hercules Cai Tingji" and "Li Rapid Hands," two people Cai Tingji and Li Rapid Hand of Cangzhou, Hebei Province, both of them were highly skilled in martial arts and had unique kung fu skills. "Lee fast hand" is the best trick in the wall rubbing eighty pounds of iron balls practiced arm strength superb, unmatched.

Liu Yuwu heard quite inspired, went home and then begged a cast eight pounds of iron ball, as long as there is time, in the home of the small wooden shed wall panels kneading practice, the beginning of the kneading only a few seconds on the hand can not support, but he refused to give up, and insisted on practicing for a year and a half to be successful. Then, made a twenty-four pounds, after a year of practice, and then changed a forty pounds. Don't look at the diameter of the iron ball is still less than half a foot, it took him three years to become a hand. After that, he practiced again, weighing eighty pounds and one hundred and twenty pounds of ......

"Everything seeks the degree, lest it be contrary." Wang Lao reminded, "The ancients practiced sixty pounds as a limit, now you practice eighty pounds, the weight is enough." In this regard, Liu Yuwu official obeyed from, put the focus on eighty pounds, one hundred and twenty pounds only as an auxiliary activity. Every morning before dawn, he got up and practiced for three hours, and after eight o'clock in the evening he practiced for another two hours. In order to enhance arm strength, endurance and viscous force, he asked someone to make a forty-pound gourd dumbbells and more than a meter long fifty-pound stretcher dumbbells, practicing hands alternately gripping, each time fifty, more than one hundred, "Suqin mooi sword" shoulder dumbbells, practicing repeated lifting one hundred and twenty pounds of iron balls, practicing hand hit sandbags, chopping trees, splitting piles; use of walls or tree trunks to practice leaning on the shoulder, hitting the Using the wall or tree trunk to practice leaning on the shoulder and striking the elbow.

"Tai Chi ball"

According to the investigation, the ball as a martial arts auxiliary movement with a map can be seen in the Sichuan excavation of the Yan Han Dynasty picture brick topography," is the for throwing the ball.

In desperation, he pushed and turned a boulder every day to practice body, day after day, the boulder rolled and ground into a round, the monk's kung fu industry has been created, after the rescue will be passed on to future generations.

Modern practice outstanding, the first push the end of the Qing Dynasty gun master Liu Fakuan. Liu was trained in Shaolin monks, practice method is divided into single practice, practice and hanging practice several kinds. Liu passed it on to Xu Yusheng, a disciple of Yang's Taiji, and since then the ball has been used as a complementary sport in the Taiji school, which was once called "Taiji ball" 50 years ago.

Rubbing an iron ball on a sideways plane is one of the secret skills of practicing kung fu, and is performed in conjunction with Shaolin's Eighteen Great Forms of Dynamic Kung Fu. The eighteen styles are also known as Yi Jin Jing, but compared with the Yi Jin Jing handed down by Zu Yuan during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, not only are there more piles, but the contents of the exercises are also not the same.

The simple practice of sidewall ball rubbing is generally the first to take the Yi Jin Jing's "Immortal Arching Hands", "Vedic Offering Pole" and a few other styles of internal qi adjustment, stand "riding stakes", and then "under the sea to find the moon". To "under the sea to find the moon" style will be the bat and knee flat, and then "Liu Quan into the melon" to put the ball on the wall, with the "Heavenly King Tota" style will be the ball with one arm to press the support, the left and right spin thirty-six weeks full of yin genus Or rotate the ball around for 49 weeks to get the meaning of full yang. Finally, stop the ball, hands on the ground. The ball used for practicing is divided into two kinds: the light one is mainly for practicing Shaolin short strikes of stealing, leaking, rolling, picking, sticking, taking, sticking, leaning and other techniques, and the one who is looking forward to it favors the development of the arm strength, and practicing to get the strength to be great and superb, and its fingers, wrists, arms, elbows and shoulders are all not rhinoceros for the human being. Pile stance is mostly used in "horse riding" or "mountain climbing" style, and the two feet are powerful and the lower plate is firm after a long time of practice. Knead the ball when sinking shoulders and falling elbows, chest and back, moving in the quiet, breathing together, can make the upper and lower virtual real more power; Qi and blood smooth no end of the evils, health and fitness is very useful.
