Back-hitting is a great way to get fit, save time, and don't cost money. It is the secret of Yang-style Taijiquan, and in the past, disciples who had to formally surrender to the door could get the true transmission. Hitting the wall is a basic skill for Tai Chi to practice strength, but the complexity of practicing Tai Chi is prohibitive for ordinary people, so we simplify the complex and specialize in its trick - hitting the wall. However, this simple collision with the wall, like a slap, can also hit a realm.
Nowadays, this simple and easy health regimen has been widely promoted, whether it is middle-aged and elderly friends who exercise in the park in the morning, or Taiwanese politician James Soong and business celebrity Wang Yongqing are all keen to hit the wall.
Taiwan's wealthy businessman is 92 years old, and the secret depends on it!
Wang Yongqing, the former richest man in Taiwan, until he was 80 years old, could still run 5,000 meters, and once left a record of 36 minutes and 30 seconds.
After the age of 80, because his body was not suitable for long-distance running, Wang Yongqing changed to practice hitting the wall, and he continued to practice day by day.
Wang Yongqing often does the skill of hitting the wall, which is to hit it with his back to the wall, and it is said that hitting the wall will recirculate the qi of the whole body. Of course, Mr. Wang Yongqing started a little late, although he did not live past the age of 100, he also lived 92 years old!

The old man "hit the wall" hundreds of times a day
After 15 years of persistence, gray hair turns black!
Lian Shuide, an old man in Zhangzhou, Fujian, was a famous "medicine jar" when he was young, but at the age of 60, he was on the "Healthy Elderly" celebrity list in Zhangzhou City, and what is even more amazing is that his white hair is still black, he said that this is due to his "wall health regimen".
When it comes to Lian Shuide's movement of hitting the wall, there is also a reason. In 1995, by chance, Lao Lian learned from the newspaper that Wang Yongqing, a wealthy businessman in Taiwan, hit the wall for fitness, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wang Yongqing is 73 years old and still insists on hitting the wall, it seems that this is a good fitness method, which not only saves time, but also does not cost money, I think I can do it." Today, Lao Lian has to "hit the wall" every day to exercise, and he has not been able to beat it for 15 years.
15 years of "hitting the wall" career has changed him from a "yellow acid person" ("a person with a weak physique" in Hokkien dialect) to a "blessed appearance" ("good complexion and very energetic" in Hokkien dialect).

So, what are the benefits of hitting the wall for health?
Open up the blood veins of the whole body, strengthen the body and prevent diseases
The impact of the wall is centered on the spine (Du Mai) and the area around the spine and spine points, extending to the sacrum and caudal vertebrae, which are crucial for kidney function. The spine is called "Roller Pass" in Taoist Dangong, and the front and back of the acupoint of the front vein of the chest, the practice of this skill is to borrow the power of hitting the wall to break through the back pass and the chest in the middle of the body, so that the qi and veins around the body are smooth, and the qi of the six organs and five organs are reconciled.
In addition, hitting the wall shook the spine, causing the entire spine to tremble, which is equivalent to orthopedia, adjusting the abnormal joints, tendons, fibers, etc. The spine connects the brain and the cerebral cord, and can open up all the meridians, nerves, blood vessels, etc. related to the brain, which is extremely helpful for the improvement of brain-related diseases.
Strengthens the kidneys and detoxifies
We hit the wall and hit the Du Mai, there are two bladder meridians next to the Du Mai, which is the longest and most important meridian in the human body, and it is also the largest detoxification system in our whole body, so opening the bladder meridian is particularly good for strengthening the kidneys and detoxifying.
Regulates the internal organs, strengthens the spleen and stomach
Hitting the wall with the back can not only regulate the internal organs, relax the muscles, clear the qi, calm the mind, but also strengthen the spleen, stomach, and dampness, and help improve cervical spondylosis and neck and shoulder syndrome.
Improve immunity, lower blood pressure, and improve insomnia
Kinesiology experts believe that the spine and both sides of the spine on the back of the human body are distributed with rich nerves and many important acupuncture points, and have a wide range of connections with the limbs and viscera, long-term persistence can not only promote local and even systemic blood circulation, enhance endocrine and digestive function, greatly improve the body's immunity, but also lower blood pressure, improve insomnia.
Hitting the wall for health, easy to learn, and convenient!
There are so many benefits to hitting the wall to maintain health, what is the specific practice? Actually, it's very simple to do:
(1) Stand with your back to the wall, your feet shoulder-width apart, and the distance between your feet and the wall is calculated in the unit of your own shoes, about 1.5 shoes in length.
(2) After the person stands firmly, the hips drop slightly, and the hands are hugged and placed in front of the chest, so as to form a Tai Chi posture with the chest and back pulled, so that the internal qi can be concentrated in the spine. However, in some cases, in order to extend the impact to the bladder meridian and shoulder blades on both sides of the vertebrae, it is also possible to let the hands fall vertically naturally.
(3) Inhale deeply through your nose first, and then your body will naturally fall backwards and hit the wall, and the person who touches the wall will feel a bang, and the inhaled air will be squeezed out by the wall, and the qi veins and acupoints will seem to be squeezed open open, and the whole body will resonate and feel comfortable. Exhale with your mouth and nose at the moment you hit the wall, and the mouth will naturally make a "huh" sound when you exhale, instead of artificially vibrating your vocal cords. Don't hold your breath when you hit the wall. If the force is too strong, you can open your mouth and exhale.
(4) To avoid hitting the wall with your upper shoulders first, tilt your hips slightly so that your entire back hits the wall vertically.
(5) The soles of the feet should always be close to the ground and should not be raised.
(6) If you know where there are meridians blocked up and down, you can adjust the part of your body that hits the wall, and focus on the areas that need to be strengthened, such as the left or right shoulder blade, or the area around the sacrum and eight hip points below, etc. If you want to increase the force of the impact, stand farther away from the wall.
(1) The wall must be load-bearing and the wall surface must be flat, otherwise it is easy to be injured.
(2) Do not practice for pregnant women, those with back trauma, or surgical wounds that have not healed.
(3) It can be hit 1-3 times a day, 200-1000 times each time, or 10 minutes to two hours. It can be gradual, the number of collisions is from less to more, the distance from the wall station is from near to far, and the farther away from the wall, the greater the impact force.
(4) The three exercises of hitting the wall, twisting the waist and sticking to the wall are the same as beating and stretching, and may produce headache, dizziness, cervical spine pain, coccygeal pain, stomach pain, hiccups, farting and other symptoms during the implementation process. Where there is discomfort, it means that the meridians are blocked, and it is a lesion, which is a good sign for the effect, so don't take the reward of qichong lesion as a punishment.
The biggest feature is that you can use local materials to refuel and inflate your body at any time.
As long as you persevere, you can achieve good health and disease prevention effects! Send it to your friends around you to see it~
