我將以下幾個影像放在一起的意思是。..... 它們都是最好的外家拳的訓練，及招式示範，無可置疑，是最好的了，不能再好。要習外家拳，全都是典範，尤其是格三星，似第一段空手道的操作，我在年輕時，也是全情投入，全都經歷過。 但請想清想楚。在現今社會，除了當軍隊，執法人員外，練就此類過硬的功夫，有何作用？ 出手不易留手，傷了對方，似台灣的 朱雪璋，昨天尚要在法庭面對審判。 隨時要入獄。是以在中年後，改練太極拳，可濟世，替人治病，不再會犯官非。情緒變成穩定。思維敏捷。 因社會急劇變化，重文輕武，在未來廿年內，我會預測，除了內家拳，太極，形意，八卦掌外，只有詠春及少數拳種會存留，不是它們不好，是沒有新一代會繼承下去。太極拳可治老人病，對年長的人，是有百利，是以會在所有拳種之上，是供求的問題，也是必然的結果也。
傳說中的鐵沙掌..... 學成後也沒有大作用，用電腦，也變成不靈光。隨時會弄壞了嬌貴的小電腦。手指太粗，用手機也不靈活。是自殘的訓練而已。

很好，精采的示範，放柔一些就是太極拳的推手，某部份的手法。當然太極拳的使用方法是比它更豐富。但普通學員能掌握此中的運作，已夠使夠用了。

Fatal high school fight: teen cleared in single punch death, school bully killed - compilation
Seniors who practice tai chi - a Chinese meditation practice that combines deep breathing and slow, fluid movements - may be less likely to fall than their peers who don't do this type of exercise, a recent study suggests.
Researchers examined data from 18 previously published trials of tai chi for fall prevention with a combined 3,824 participants aged 65 and older.
Tai chi was associated with a 20 per cent lower risk of falling at least once and a 31 per cent drop in the number of falls, the analysis found.
"This is a fairly significant finding because tai chi is an activity that can be easily taught and that people can do independently at home or at their workplace or at the retirement centre on their own or in a group," said Jean-Michel Brismee, a physical therapy researcher at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and University Medical Center in Lubbock.
"So in regard to cost and preserving independence and health it is significant because people do not have to go to the gym or a special facility as they can do it anywhere," Brismee, who wasn't involved in the study, added by email.
Worldwide, up to 40 per cent of people over 65 and about half of people over 80 fall each year, researchers note in BMJ Open. Falls are often associated with considerable decline in mobility, independence and quality of life and are a leading cause of death in older adults.
For the study, Zhi-Guan Huang of Guangzhou Sport University in China and colleagues analysed data from published trials that randomly assigned older adults to either receive tai chi lessons or join a control group that didn't get this intervention.
Overall, 10 seniors would need to practice tai chi in order to avoid one fall, Huang and colleagues estimated.
When researchers accounted for how often seniors practiced tai chi, how much time they spent at it, the style of tai chi and the falling risk for individual patients, they still found these exercises associated with a lower risk of falling. Sometimes the fall risk appeared smaller but the difference between the tai chi groups and control groups was too small to rule out the possibility that it was due to chance, however.
Increasing the frequency of tai chi sessions from once a week to more than three times weekly was associated with a dramatic improvement in risk reduction, from 5 per cent to 64 per cent.
One limitation of the study is that it examined data from trials where participants knew what intervention was being tested and whether they received it, which has the potential to bias results, the authors note.
Even so, the results confirm previous research showing tai chi can improve balance, flexibility, strength of knee extension and reduce the risk of falls in older adults, said Dr. Chenchen Wang, director of the Center for Complimentary and Integrative Medicine at Tufts Medical Center in Boston.
"Many important components include: exercise, breathing techniques, awareness of the body, focused attention, mindfulness, balance and function, visualization and relaxation," Wang, who wasn't involved in the study, said by email.
"These components also positively impact health by improving self-efficacy, psychosocial functioning, and depression and can help patients bolster self-confidence, which also helps balance and coordination to avoid falls," Wang added.
The complex nature of tai chi exercise sequences can also support cognitive function because it requires steady effort to coordinate multiple movements at the same time, said Dr. Rome Lauche of the University of Technology in Sydney and the Australian Research Center in Complementary and Integrative Medicine.
"For frail elderly patients who can't go to the gym and conduct conventional exercises, or those with a preference towards relaxing mind/body interventions, the slow and flowing nature of tai chi might be the right choice," Lauche, who wasn't involved in the study, said by email. "For patients who have already fallen, it is important to undergo a medical examination first."
