Spoiler Alert 🚨 - Isometrics‼️
There is a reason why many Martial Arts emphasize the Horse Stance... This video gives some explanation as to "why"... You can start with Wall Sits, work your way down over time, increase duration, until you are ready to get on the Horse. Ride on! 🙏

I've had these in my head for a bit: Stiffness is weakness. Motion is lotion. Stillness is strength.
Go with the Rope Flow 📿
Have you ever tried Rope Flow? Or even heard of it? I consider Rope Flow to be Tai Chi. The same principles are there. But it gives you feedback that solo form practice lacks. It's one of my favorite practices. ENJOY. 🙏

https://youtu.be/-CNzF2yLsUY?si=RYoCrPxaOGgDDtru This is a good drill that integrates silk-reeling energy with shoulder and elbow. Totally agree--I started rope flow for it to give me immediate feedback in my fluidity, in lieu of a taichi instructor.
Super Bowl Sunday... 🏈
Who's watching? Who you got? Any big plans? Traditions or rituals? What are you eating? I used to be a BIG fan back in the day... I grew up with it... Played since Elementary... In the Marines... We'd have our Annual Mechs vs. Flyers game... But I've kind of fallen off over the years. They keep making the season longer... And the current rules completely handicap the defense. I used to love the big hits... (The Mech defense was legendary, lol)... But those are now a thing of the past. Knowing what I do now... When they do happen... It's more cringe inducing than a cause for celebration. I remember when Darren Woodson hit Darrell Jackson back in the day. Jackson went back to the locker room and had a seizure. 🤯 That was the stuff of legends. But the implications are serious. All that said... My favorite sport now is probably MMA, lol. It has all the big time action of old school football... And then some‼️ But is also somehow safer⁉️ 🤯 ENJOY the day... 🌞 With friends and family... OR rolling solo! 😎 Keep your head on straight! 💯 But keep your head on a swivel! And maybe... ☯️ A little Tai Chi.🙏

I didn't even realize it was SSS until they started prepping the halftime show... On one of the TVs at the gym. 🙃 It seemed a little empty for mid-afternoon.
Just "Relax" LOL 🫠
"How to Relax in Tai Chi" Are you relaxing or are you tense?

Some qigong or dynamic tension can help relaxation by increasing awareness in those parts of the body. It's easy to forget about fascia, but few people seem aware that it's more densely innervated than muscle. I've been enjoying little bits of loosening exercises in my warmup, like heel drops for the arms and shoulders.
Akashic Record Type Vibrations... 🔊
I came across this Akashic Record Vibe Type Beat in another group that centers around music and vibes. Have you listened to something like this before? 🤷‍♂️ It made for some great ambiance while I did some Qigong / Tai Chi. Try it out and see what you think.

@Jake Hill Agreed. I refer to 'tracks' from a lot of artists because it may be musical, but not necessarily a 'song.' Yeah, I listen to plenty of synth music. Owl City is a favorite, or lots of EDM and dubstep. I have yet to find anything that adds to my kungfu practice, aside from an odd phenomenon that I noticed when I used to spend time cramming for tests: Sometimes, I play 'music' just to give my brain something to exclude. As if, the thought of filling my attention with 'this instead of that' increases the level of focus on 'this.' So, I may listen to hardstyle (pogo stick music) while I train the ropes, then leave it playing, as something to consciously ignore. The psychology of that is probably bogus, but that's how it feels.

@Jake Hill I'll check that album out! I respect but never tracked with WuTang. I pretty much only practice outside, so I usually just focus on the inside. I believe there can be good music for kungfu! I just haven't found any that contribute well for me—at least, not consciously. Like you say, it probably wouldn't have lyrics.
