If a Kungfu practitioner doesn’t know regimen, he won’t get high Kungfu level even trains Kungfu everyday. On the contrary, probablly will get sick.
1. Avoid coldness
There was saying from predecessor: warmness promoted your Kungfu , coldness results in illness. It’s normal that body get sweat and hot After the training, but Avoid coldness and keep warm after training, which is the first thing need to be done for Kungfu practitioner. For people who do specific Kungfu training, such as iron palm, iron body, can’t touch cold water, stone and iron pipe within an hour, if not, his Kungfu will fade out and get sick.
2. Avoid fog
Do not practice Kung Fu in fog. The dirt and toxin in fog will bring harms to the human. For this kind of weather, you can drink three small cups of alcohol to detoxify. One cup could work, but three cups are better (For someone who never drink, do not push yourself).
3. Avoid wind
There is old saying for Kungfu practitioner, guard against wind is as important as against arrow. Some of rheumatism diseases are caused by wind, therefore,do not stand in wind or use electric fan when you are sweat.
4. Guard sweat

The sweat pore on skin will open when you get hot, and also will close when get in coldness suddenly. At this time, the toxin in your body won’t get out by sweat, but will stay in body, then you will get sick if keep like this for a period of time. The right way should be: If it is winter, put on your jacket to keep warm even you get sweat. Just let body keep sweating and dry naturally. After that, you can take a hot shower. If it’s summer, don’t need to put on your jacket, but still have to let sweat go and let it dry naturally. This is what we talked “Guard sweat”.
5. Take water
Water is the main element in body. But you might get sick If supplement a lot of water as soon as you get sweat, The right way should be: take a cup of cold boiled water before morning training in order to make up the water you lost in the night. And also drink some warm water before the night training. It’s not right time to supplement water when you get sweat, should be when your sweat get dried. And also not too much, half a cup or a cup is ok.
6. Simply acupoint tapping

The second is to tap the zu san li acupoint (first, find the point 10 centimeters from the knee on the shin,Second, Zuo san li acupoint is around 3 centimeters away from the first point outside of shin),36 times as well. The third way is to tap the yong quan acupoint ( in the center of the bottom of the feet), also 36 times for each foot. These three tapping, can not only get body relax, but also get longevity.
