Another amazing video Mike! I discovered your channel during Covid lockdown and kept watching it all this time. Thanks for all the effort you put in these videos!
The secret behind number 3 is to relax your body and align it in a way it will hold itself. In detail, your body has two types of muscles. One is arranged along your body, like your biceps. The other type is arranged across your body, your skeleton muscles. Usually you can only control the ones along your body, which do have a lot of power but very little endurance, which is why this exercise is getting so hard over time. By switching off those muscles (attempt to relax) you push the weight over to your skeleton muscles, which have high endurance and low power since they hold up your body all day long. By doing this you can hold that stance for literal hours. The issue now is that this is known from the so called inner martial arts (Tai Chi Chuan, Qi Gong, ...), which indicates that you cannot learn how it works by simply observing it. This will come down to training your body feeling, which this excercise somewhat does, but in a more advanced way. To remain the position for longer than one minute its once again all about the basics. Now doing the excercise in the way you attempted is just wrong im afraid. What could help is to just stand straight up and try to relax these muscles along your body, which will automatically train the muscles across your body. Stand casual, feet parallel and lined up with your shouldes. Move your tailbone downwards, almost as if you are about to sit down. Now go through your body from top to bottom, try to feel every muscle, consciously relax it. Again, as confusing as it sound, this is not about power but about body alignment. Only your skeleton muscles will give you the endurance required to remain in this position for a longer time. Train that three times a week. Now go back to the initial exercise, you will improve. Good luck.
Mike you have such a good mentality! In the video there were stumps on the stick to help the monks, but you did it with a Normal pole! This proves to me that nothing is impossible!
Thanks to you I started learning the martial arts weapons (nunchaku & Bo staff) and now I'm really very good at fighting using them. BTW love your content very much. Love from India ❤️❤️
Love your videos! The best thing in them is that you show people to never give up and keep trying, because the PRACTISE is a key to success. Keep doing such a great videos and… YESGOO
This video inspired me to meditate. And I feel better. I don't use Headspace, but that doesn't matter. What really matters is wellbeing, and meditation multiplied mine. Thank you, Mike.
The one inch punch that Bruce Lee popularised is more of a show of how fast he could recruit muscle fibres from all over his body into 1 solid output of power which is why when you watch Bruce Lee do it his whole body literally twists to corkscrew the power from legs to core and back he barely "punches" in his demonstrations he merely twists his body acting like a spring.
Mastering does not mean to do it once out of 500 trys, it means, you can do it on every new attempt, after you mastered it. Besides that, good content.
'Kung Fu' means success through hard work. Everything I see on your channel has been achieved through trial and error. Truly, every video on your channel is Kung Fu.
I love ur vids keep up the good work And i would recommend on the one inch punch u should keep ur body behind ur punching arm so that way u can hit it harder and YESGO
Hello, Mike the reason why breaking the thicker piece of wood was harder to break through was affected by the person holding the wooden pieces not holding in place, therefore when you applied the force you just pushed the board back with the person holding the board, resulting in more attempts and being harder to penetrate.
The one inch punch is not something you only engage your first but you have to engage from your feet transferring the kinetic energy from the roots through the kinetic chain (body)
