How to loosen the shoulder joint
Yang Chengfu the master of great learning and integrity “Taijiquan Said that Ten Wanted” said: “sinks the shoulder to fall the elbow sinking shoulder, the shoulder loosens the sagging. If cannot the sagging, two shoulders carry, was mad that along with it on, the whole body is also ineffectual. The falling elbow, the elbow downward pine falls meaning. If the elbow hangs, then the shoulder cannot sink, releases people not far, near Yu Waijia breaks the vigor.”Myself practice fist many year right “to sink the shoulder to fall the elbow” slightly to have become aware, now tries to discuss it to present to the readers, in the article the improper act and the mistake place of also look in the world the master liberal with to grant instruction indicate 12.
The sinking shoulder, the shoulder loosens the sagging. The first shoulders from clamp the keel[clamps the keel double meaning in person back 24 high and low center, (i.e. back two scapula point middle hole)]Outside about the Italian pine to the shoulder, enables two shoulder joint relaxation to have meaning of the sagging, causes two shoulders to fall to the submersion, before simultaneously joint holds (i.e. micro, buckle) forward slightly[this point is important, otherwise, the empty armpit and the arm next to the skin is not very difficult to achieve. ]
The falling elbow, the elbow downward pine falls meaning. If the elbow hangs, then the shoulder cannot sink. -odd thought that falls the elbow to sink the first shoulder, sinks the shoulder to be loose the shoulder, the pine with sinks is the causes and effects first. Can the pine be able to sink, can sink, then can fall, can fall powerfully then. Can the pine, be able to sink, can fall, then the strength can pass through. Falls the elbow is meaning of the elbow point common sagging. Besides the elbow department must be higher than peace in the shoulder movement, underneath the elbow point should hang faces. Falls elbow’s key not to turn the elbow, not the bright elbow, turns the elbow bright elbow easy to cause the width from armpit to shoulder. For instance has the potential two whereabouts, the elbow point carries, crosses the back is the bright elbow, the bright elbow strength does not put in order. When white crane bright wing, the elbow do not turn, turns the elbow easily to cause the rib region, on the back arm department muscle to raise, the shoulder also easy to mention, the strength surfaces the boat. Must avoid this question, the hand raises when must simultaneously receive the waist, the rib region muscles relax, receives the hollow of the shoulder, causes the scapula to pull out then.
The Young Taijiquan two cross mnemonics (to upper limb request) said: “stretches (chen) to leave the elbow point; Vacates the armpit. The elbow point, entrains the (zhuai) arm point, the company skill, the belt finger”. Two cross mnemonics words and expressions not brief and to the point, thought-provoking, what although it refers to is upper limb each spot, can actually have chain-reaction from one to the other, not only associates moreover can feel truly immediately, as a result of upper limb’s activity, affected including the chest, has initiated has pulled out the back. . . . . As soon as one stretches entrains draws out the empty armpit (spatial armpit), the arm not next to the skin. The empty armpit plumbing arm, the finger loosens micro Qu Zhei is to create the hand cloudy three, the hand three positive these six passages through which vital energy circulates unobstructed vitality circulation detachment condition. If not like this, clamps closely two hands, the hand three cloudy do not pass; If the empty armpit is too big, the hand three have passed cloudy, the shoulder has been but actually anxious, the hand three positive do not pass. Therefore, wants the nature sagging. The empty armpit do not be too big, fist such size was good. Wants the pine static nature, cannot be affected, takes the posture intentionally. . Sinks the shoulder to fall the elbow, the empty armpit loose wrist, causes our chest big muscle, the arm big muscle, the deltoid muscle, shoulders myo- is loose down, like this can cause the hand three cloudy, the hand three positive these six passages through which vital energy circulates to be unobstructed.
Each time the good fist walks the frame to be able to achieve these requests, passes through period of time practicing, will cause the shoulder joint to loosen; At this time you will feel that will succeed in obtaining the arm not to be able to lift, likely was dislocated has been same, is sore difficult Chu, moreover did not use a strength; The spoken lines were the arm do not dare to move, this was the shoulder joint loosened when the phenomenon, did not use the fear, passed through ten day of about time to restore normally, could realize at this time to you the upper limb had the feeling which the pine, sank, works; Two arms likely hang on the shoulder are the same, as soon as your thought moves the arm to raise or the submersion in naturally, probably some mysterious strength is having an effect, especially in practices the primal chaos has the potential time, this kind of feeling is most obvious; Every one moves is such nature is harmonious, does not have a spot to be affected.
