Is drunken boxing most effective when you are actually drunk?

[Gilbert]

it is true that being drunk loosens up the body and makes it more flex to smooth around with the movements...but you dont need to be drunk..

 

the style your imititating a drunking person holding wine cups.

 

you can be holding the imaginary wine cups with one finger or do it with two.

 

some excercises you can do are

 

stand on one leg....and the other bend up to waist level.

 

now do ten strikes forward with the hands...like punching but using the wrist.

 

DO NOT LOCK YOUR WRIST WHEN YOU STRIKE... just use the power from the forarm. you dont generaly hit with the wrist but with the top part knuckles.

 

do ten on each hand and change leg and do another ten on each side.

 

another excercise is called the bridge..hope you know this excersise because it is kind of hard to explain it typing.

 

this excercise try to hold it for 1 minute..

 

another excercise is the scorpion...its like doing reverse leg lifts. in leg lifts you lie facing up. in scorpion you lie facing down.

 

then without getting up do reverse sit ups

 

do about 10 reverse leg lifts and 10 reverse sit ups

 

another is the rag dolls... you fall forward and like a ball you roll all over continuesly forward.......this is very dangerous...ONLY DO THIS EXCERCISE IF YOU ARE FLEXIBLE ON YOUR BACK. thats what the bridge excercise is for. to build flexibility.

 

now in this art since some dont drink.......one could spin...very fast...and try walking without losing balance and falling all over....this is just to get a feel out of what it feels like to be drunk and performing the art.

Oh, I found out somewhere that this is how the Shaolin monks did the training for it....

 

50 one legged squats on each leg

 

50 toe raisers on each feet

 

50 toe raisers on both feet

 

10 front kicks

 

10 hook kicks

 

10 round-house kicks

 

10 side kicks

 

50 push-ups

 

They also did it using weights....

 

Weight vest of up to 20 lbs

 

Ankle weights of 5 lbs on each leg

 

Wrist weights of 2.5 lbs on each arm, near the wrist

 

Hold 5 gallon buckets in each arm in an outstreched style

 

Yeah, it's kind of hard, but I'm pretty sure, with practice and determination, anyone can do that drunken fist training.

WW which do you "roll" on?

 

Yeah, drinken boxing is the most lethal when the practitioner is ACTUALLY drunk.

 

His breath will "kill" ya!
