Chen Style Taijiquan Second Set As Taught By Grand Master Chen Zhaokui: The ultimate guide to unlocking the secrets of Taiji (Traditional Chen Style Taijiquan ... late Grand Master Chenzhaokui Book 2)

The Chen Style Taijiquan was originally invented for war since it was based on 29 of the 32 grapple techniques selected to train the Ming Dynasty soldiers. Today the Chen Style is practiced mostly for self-improvement and health benefits. However, the key to improving the mind and body is through nurturing the "Taiji Ghost", meaning the subconsciousness of the brain. Without the original applications in heart, the mind inevitably gets lost in sending meaningful signals along the proper physical paths to the target muscle groups to generate power. This drawback needs to be fixed for health improvement as well as professional research and clear understanding of this system.In contrast to the First Set, the Cannon Fist Set (the Second Set), focuses on the Yang side of the system, aiming to complement the power gained from the First Set, backing up the pliability and flexibility of the First Set with the explosive energy. An appropriate analogy maybe that it is like discharging a battery, releasing the stored-up energy from the mind and the body. Please note that this eBook has the best reading experience on a tablet.
