The action of raising knees, hooking hands and clapping hands usually uses breathing ()

Holding one's breath is generally used to lift knees, hook hands and brighten hands.

Four breathing methods in Wushu Changquan: lifting, holding, gathering and sinking;

Lift: when moving from low to high or jumping, use the method of "lift" (inhale and raise the center of gravity);

Support: when there is static movement, use the "support" method (temporarily stop breathing and stabilize the center of gravity);

Polymerization: when rigidity, brittleness and short-term force appear, the "polymerization" method (exhalation process) should be adopted;

Sinking: When moving from high action to low action, use the "sinking" method (pause briefly after exhaling to lower the center of gravity).

When these breathing methods change with movements, they always follow the basic requirement of "keeping the qi flat", and at the same time, they should be used naturally, not deliberately. On the basis of natural breathing, experience it slowly and master it gradually from repeated practice.
