The Wudang Eight Duan Brocade had its own unique characteristics. The movements were coordinated with the breathing method. During practice, attention was paid to the coordination of internal breathing and external movements. For example, the first movement, the Sanjiao with both hands, needed to adjust the body posture between inhaling and exhaling. When the ten fingers of the hands were crossed and lifted up, the body was stretched up and down, and the arms were straightened and the body was stretched up and down. The head was raised and paused for a few seconds. The second move was to stand in the horse stance and slowly draw the bow with both hands. For example, the left hand should push with the palm of the eight characters and the right hand should pull with the claw. The movement of the left and right push and pull should be slow and carried out at the same time. In a relaxed state, you should experience the feeling of pulling the bow and supporting it. The third type of conditioning of the spleen and stomach must be a single action of supporting the upper and pressing the lower. When standing with a wide shoulder, one palm should support the sky and the other palm should press the ground. The eyes can look straight ahead or look up at the hands. The upper and lower movements must be completed at the same time and there must be a sense of pulling and supporting. The fourth move, looking back with all kinds of injuries, was to stand with shoulders wide and put both hands out on both sides, palms facing forward, turn your head to look left (right) behind, put both hands out and look back at the same time, and turn your head without moving. The fifth move was to shake one's head and tail to get rid of the fire in one's heart. Standing in a left bow stance (or right bow stance), supporting one's thighs with both hands, leaning forward with one's head and knees vertical, turning one's head to look at the tip of one's right foot, etc. These actions were meant to improve one's health and internal energy cultivation.

Li Zifeng was the teacher of the Eight Duan Brocade of Taoism. He was the personal disciple of the famous Wudang Taoist health expert and the 14th Wudang Taiji successor. He pointed out that the national standard version of the Eight Duan Brocade had simplified the movements to make it easier to spread, so the effect was greatly reduced. The Eight Duan Brocade he taught was more ancient and primitive, suitable for people aged 30 to 65. It had the effect of replenishing qi and blood, improving immunity, driving away lumbago, insomnia, yellow face and hair loss, and so on. Men who practiced it could strengthen their yang and qi, and they would be full of physical strength and spirit. Women who practiced it could promote blood circulation and qi, and their faces would be rosy and their bodies would be good.

Ba Duan Jin was a type of China Qigong. It was a Taoist cultivation method that included body movements and breathing conditioning. There were already written records of it in the Northern Song Dynasty. In terms of posture, it was divided into standing posture (feet and shoulder width) and sitting posture (sitting cross-legged), and the specific movements were different. In terms of schools, there were the Southern School (mainly soft, also known as the "Wen Ba Duan") and the Northern School (mainly hard, also known as the "Wu Ba Duan"). However, no matter which posture or style it was, it was composed of eight movements. Each movement was called a "segment", and each movement had to be repeated many times in coordination with the breath conditioning. Ba Duan Jin's movements were soothing and suitable for people of all ages to exercise. It could regulate the spleen and stomach, exercise the blood vessels, and even prolong life. It was very popular among the public. Its main associations included the Health Qigong Management Center of the State Sports General Administration, the China Health Qigong Association, the International Health Qigong Federation, etc. The main events included the World Health Qigong Exchange Competition, the China International Health Qigong Exchange Competition, the National Health Qigong·Ba Duan Jin Exchange Competition, etc. The representatives were Yang Bailong, Cui Shunyi, Hou Wen, etc. In addition, each formula of Ba Duan Jin could be separated and practiced individually. Each formula contained multiple key orifices, and the key orifices could also be practiced individually. Moreover, the key orifices could be further decomposed from the time and space of the movements. Choosing a good time to cultivate would help him better absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth to improve the effect of his cultivation. It would also prevent physical fatigue from causing sports injuries. While waiting for the TV series, you can also click on the link below to read the classic original work of "Dafeng Nightwatchman"!
Taiji Fist and Ba Duan Jin were both excellent traditional health exercises. It was difficult to determine which one was better. Both had their own characteristics and could be chosen according to one's physical condition, exercise purpose, hobbies, and so on. Judging from the complexity of the movements, Ba Duan Jin's movements were relatively simple. It was mainly a set of Qigong sequences consisting of eight movements (now modified and integrated by the General Administration of Sports into 10 movements). The number of repetitions of each movement was clear, and the movements were easy to learn and practice. There were not many branches and factions. Tai Chi included a series of complicated gestures and footwork, forming complete routines such as the first and second old frames. The movements required more precision and fluency, and it required a longer time to practice and understand. In terms of function, Ba Duan Jin was a fitness Qigong that focused on regulating breathing, promoting blood circulation, and relaxing the body and mind to achieve health effects. It was helpful for body flexibility training. When one had sufficient strength, it could also be used for strength training. At the same time, it was a good kind of cardiovascular exercise that had a certain effect on relieving the discomfort of cervical and lumbar diseases. It was suitable for people of all ages to practice. Although Taiji Fist was an internal boxing that combined fitness, health, and martial arts, the public used it more for fitness. It combined martial arts elements, such as defensive techniques and the cultivation of inner strength. It also included Taiji Pushing Hands and other martial arts. It also included auxiliary exercises in equipment, such as Taiji Ball, Taiji Ruler, Taiji Fan, Sword, Spring and Autumn Big Knife, and so on. It emphasized strength, especially the strength of the lower limbs and the core of the waist and abdomen. Although the rhythm was slow, it was both hard and soft. Judging from the venue requirements, Taiji Fist had higher requirements than Ba Duan Jin. For people with poor body flexibility, who wanted to do simple health exercises and had limited time and energy, Ba Duan Jin might be more suitable. For people who pursued martial arts skills, physical coordination, and spiritual cultivation, or were interested in strength training and more complex sports forms, and had enough time and energy to practice, Tai Chi might be a better choice.
