How to practice the legs of Tai Chi

First of all, I want to tell my friend that pressing high does not mean that you can lift high, mainly because you do not have muscles that can lift your legs, abdominal muscles, waist muscles, and muscles on your legs. These all need to be exercised a little bit, and cannot be lifted up immediately. Another reason is that there is a certain relationship with age.

Workaround

1, to insist on pressing the legs, after pressing the legs to kick the legs, as the saying goes, three points of pressure seven points of kicking, according to their own physical fitness, at least 30 to 50 times a day (the first time can be kicked a little less, to prevent the next day too tired, step by step). In the method of leg pressing, positive leg pressing is the foundation and is also the method that the practitioner feels difficult.

Beginners often have the following problems: bow their heads, bend over, rush to touch their feet with their heads, there is a big gap between the chest and the legs, and some are unstable, like falling backwards, and even leg ligaments are affected, so in the process of practice, we must pay attention to the method, maintain the standardization of the action, rather kick just over the chest, do not lift the heel of the leg to support the leg or bend the knee, or bend the waist and back with the head to meet the tiptoe, which shows that the flexibility training of the leg is not in place, and the ligaments have not been opened. As long as you insist on the combination of pressing and kicking, and practice often, you will definitely reach the foot touching the forehead. Practicing leg exercises requires long-term persistence, one step a day, only in this way can you practice leg exercises.

2, to slowly practice controlling your legs, first a little, from 10 degrees to control, then 15 degrees, a little up, 90 degrees is the hardest time, this time must adhere. There are many ways to control the legs, according to my own experience of years of practice, it is better to use the side of the hand to support the wall to raise the leg, the specific method: hand support wall, leg lifting, maintain the side kick posture, how high can be lifted, how high can be lifted, maintain three minutes, five groups a day, within twenty minutes to complete. After adaptation, the leg control time can be extended to five minutes. Also, the premise is that the ligaments must be pressed open, otherwise the legs will not be lifted.

3, if you want to go further up, then you need the help of the hand, you first use your hands to lift up, and then feel that you can stand firmly, slowly release your hands, try to control yourself, the last important point, is that the above solutions must be insisted on, so that you can reach the height you want.

In fact, to measure the level of a person's tai chi, it is not that your legs are raised high to prove that the boxing is practiced well, only in the competition is required to raise the legs. The game requires that the heel exceed the shoulder. The requirements of the traditional routine are in line with the waist, tai chi pedaling feet, parting feet do not need to be raised high, because after lifting, it gives people an opportunity to take advantage of, so there is a foot but knee, split foot but waist.
