These punches may look sissylike, but I'm pretty sure that with the relaxation and heaviness combined with the speed, that they are absolutely lethal.
The term 'martial' means 'war,' and in any war, you use the right tool for the right job. 'Iron shirt' is a type of conditioning to strengthen the body for/against blow during HAND-TO-HAND combat. True chinese martial artist (although admittedly few and far between) understand the true principles behind the poems.
Correct. Basically when you condition the bone in the body, you create small fractures in the bones. after the fractures heal, the bones become a bit thicker. this continuous process strengthens the bones, and making it so that the force they could produce, could be the equivalent of being hit by a car at 20MPH
When you say small fractures, that's a bit of an understatement. Microscopic fractures, is more like it. Most of these "fractures" are happening at a chemical level and can't even be seen through a microscope. Fractures probably isn't the right word, but to be honest I can't think of a better word for it. In medicine, this ability for bone to adjust over time to progressive changes in use, is called Wolff's law.
"Iron shirt taken to it's logical conclusions was unfortunately and tragically demonstrated in the boxer revolt" There's nothing logical about pitting 'magical body armor' against bullets,... which should tell you the mind state of the so-called 'boxers' of the revolt. The truth is,.... the fanatics to which you refer, was made up of majorly non-martial ability wielding superstitious peasants.
@darkie1973 lol iron body isn't meant for blocking bullets. you have to be a mental retard to think that. it conditions the body to take punches. it's just body acclimation.
Though chi can play a role, it takes many many many years to actually use it to protect your body as in Iron Shirt used by the Shaolin. He is actually using certain parts of his hands and arms to strike being careful not to strike with the weak points along the joints. This is just a product of simple hand and arm conditioning. I should know because I take Kung Fu as well (including Drunken) and we work very hard to be accurate with these types of strikes. Happy to see u believe in chi though :)
Strong chi can be attained by regular exercise and cardio-work outs. But to manipulate chi is through meditation and Gung Fu. You train drunken? cool! I train dizzy, high and a little stoned. LOL!
i agree re. hand and arm conditioning and importance in technique and relaxation; personally I don't believe ideas of Chi help anything at all... 'Iron Shirt' taken to its logical conclusions was unfortunately and tragically demonstrated in the Boxer Revolt...
WXD hammer first is basically the idea of throwing the punch from any angle with a loose arm and transferring power on contact, greatly aided by huge amounts of speed and momentum, it's not only an overhead swing as is naturally assumed on hearing the term 'hammer fist'. It's like a metal ball on the end of a length of rubber - as Marko says.
Also, WXD students through steel hand condition their hands to be almost impervious to injuries. I doubt someones skull would injure their hands.
aha, you ever punched someone in the forhead? Didn't think so....it hurts and i don't care how much conditioning you have..fact is your hand has alot of easily breakable bones
They do steel hand conditioning. They can slap river stones and make them break (harder than bricks). They can lay a household brick onto a concrete slab and crack the brick in two with a hammer fist (different to other Martial Arts breaks where they have two bricks about 15cm apart them a brick bridging them, making it much easier to break).
Sometimes a fast stunning strike is useful because it will give you enough time to utilise a more powerful technique afterward. This is a common and fairly effective method in quite a few of the arts.

Chi is bullshit. You can't protect your body with chi. Anyone who tells you otherwise is full of shit. Bones are not somehow above physical laws.
