Introduction1:10
In this brief introduction, we will discuss how modern qigong has little effect on the every day practitioner. Iron arm will cultivate strength in the arms and body that applies to many aspects of life. Through the training, your arms will become more resistant to pain of impact. This is how martial artist develop truly invincible punches.

Arm Grabs2:21
Arm grabs work the entire arm, especially the fore arm. It accentuates grip strength, as well as building your legs stronger.
Forearm Raking1:25
Additional forearm strength, but more focused. It also can incorporate the lat muscles of the back. Back and core muscles are very important because they generate force in punches.

Biceps, back muscles, and grip strength. My teacher gave us the visualization of "squeezing oranges", or "pulling chains connected to outer walls".

This is one of the most important exercises in martial arts. I would suggest making goals to properly and effectively do Tiger Push-ups in your martial arts training.

Description

True iron arm training is very difficult to come by. In this course, we will tackle the traditional Qigong of Iron Arm. Lectures include daily solo exercises. When I was training with my teacher, he described the results from when he did this program as "having steel cables for arms". The rigorous program is easy to learn and extremely effective.

Note: Iron arm training is very difficult, and you should consult with a medical professional to determine your eligibility for the course.

Who this course is for:

Suited for students of all levels interested in martial arts
Martial artists who want stronger attacks and defense
Those interested in Internal Martial Arts
Those seeking to build strength, and align the spine correctly
