@BKKaye arm as hard as a steel pipe ain't conditioned enough for you? truth is fight doesn't suppose to last more than a minute, a real fight ends in seconds.
Mr singh you miss the point, the video shows how through his experience and training Sifu Yap Leong has developed a softness and internal force that can defeat, someone who is significantly bigger and structurely heavier than himself. incidently the power lifter also trains in Kung fu
Point taken. In that case it is not advisable to do this exercise as it damages the blood capillaries, and in some cases over time cause blood clots which could lead to premature strokes. Any conditioning that damages capillaries surely by logic cannot be good for the circulation as a whole.
as a practitioner of kung fu for many years and also working in the scientific field i dont think one can generalise to say all arts can cause arthritis as if anything in my experience it can actually help and prevent arthritis by strengthening bones/joints/tendons and if you look carefully in the video clips they are not hitting on the wrist joints!

lets se yap leong bench press with this guy, who would press more?
my point is the body builder is not a kung fu guy. so obviously hes gonna get hurt,
so the point of this video was basically nothing.

That is why practitioners use liniment to restore circulation and heal brusing before it starts.
The limbs are not struck until the capillaries burst.
That would be stupid and I have seen karateka and some kung fu guys do this.
Conditioning takes time and trying to become an iron man overnight only injures one.

Sifu Yap Leong is about 60 years of age - and he is far from arthritic.
