Brief description*

*Excerpt from the book: Jin Jing Zhong. Authentic Shaolin Heritage: Training Methods of 72 Arts of Shaolin. ISBN: 978-1440474170

Shaolin exercise “Soft Bones” is the soft GONG FU of the internal force. It is called “Twisting the waist and bending the legs” in common speech. It is obligatory for training the “soft” GONG FU for those who practise SHAO LIN WU SHU (Shaolin Martial Arts). It allows to obtain flexibility of all joints, nimbleness and deftness of the body, avoid awkwardness and restraint of movements. First of all, it is necessary to start from training legs (LIU TUI). There is a saying among specialists in WU SHU: “You will not achieve a success in the course of your life if you practise Martial Arts without training legs”. ...

<...>

... With time the body will become soft like cotton wool. The waist and the leg will become very flexible. You may roll yourself up into a ball in a lying position. You will be much more flexible than ordinary people. If you learn WU SHU (Martial Arts) on this base, certainly, you will achieve a great success.
Before training you may take a caldron, pour boiled water into it, cover with white fabric from above. When water cools down a little, lie on your back, steam your waist: the effect will be still better.
