Iron fists is a form of ancient Shaolin Kung Fu. Students of iron fist train their fists through repeated damage to the bones and skin in the hands. As the hand builds up calluses and muscle, it becomes harder and more powerful. A kung fu master wielding iron fists can break bricks in one punch.

That’s dedication bro nice video
@@ShreyaBG1063 because it's more clickable
@@betatoalpha3689 thank you!!
I have seen this but i don't think a human hand can break bricks no matter how much people train.
The bones in our hands are very frail and easy to break and they can't get harder at all and if we hit stuff repeteadly like this we will only get hurt.
Iron fist is a term used for fighters with powerfull punches who can KO an oponent,not break bricks.
This is the type of stuff we see in movies but this is not reality.
Learning to do iron fist in 7 days...sounds alot like me trying to study a whole semester in 1 night
More like the whole year in 1 week lol.
This is Just stupid video for keep kids visuals. It's ok, CZcams rulez
It is just enough time to learen how not enough time to do anything. It takes 4 to 6 weeks for any changes to develop. About a year for serious development of the iron hand skill
Actual iron fist used to require breaking the bones until they became a solid mass... my master could break a coconut while holding in the other...
@@scottsthaname1 a little excessive. You dont actually half to destroy the hand. My sifu also did the cocunt breaks but still played piano.
COLLAB WITH ME HAFU BRO!
that would be very Wude
Yes Hafu go favorite creator
SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE
Yes Hafu Go favorite creator!
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
Man, i am seriously impressed.. not because you trained hard and not because you broke the wood and porcelain.. but because you pushed through despite being scared and broke them both. I have done such training before and anticipating the pain just before hitting a wooden plank (all bruised knuckles) was too much for me to chicken out a couple of times.. RESPECT!
my uncle who trained karate for decades told me to tape a phone book to a brick pillar we had at home and punch until my fists hurt every other day to harden my knuckles. he also said when punching the phone book stops hurting to let him know. i let him know after a while and he says, take away the phone book and wrap the pillar in some rope, continue and when your fists stop hurting from punching the rope let me know. i asked him what's next after the rope stops hurting to punch and he said that he doesn't know because punching rope never stopped hurting his fists.
Some Uncle Iroh type humor 🤣
i cut up box and tape it to the wall..using book seem like a waste to me..beside boxes are much cheaper
I'm late to the comments, but I've been doing Iron Palm for about 10 years. You should be gradually increasing the training, and using Dit Da Jow before and after each training session. The gradual stress and healing is what increases bone and skin density. Doing it at an accelerated rate like this can cause permanent damage and arthritis. Be careful, and remember that if it hurts too bad then you need to rest and heal before continuing.
your 100% right but remember this is for youtube.... look at his form from the first time hitting wood to the second time. complete stance change, grounds himself before striking the second attempt etc... its all fake for views.
@@gimbo70 yeah he could've broken it the first time
Does dit da jow do anything? I have tried researching the scientific benefits of it and I really can't find very much. And honestly I've conducted my own experiment I've punched stuff with my right hand where I can punch boards and break bricks with my right hand and my left hand I've done nothing. And so far I haven't had any issues.
@@jaimemunoz5920 Scientifically, it's debatable that the way Dit Da Jow is made increases any of the benefits. It's proven that certain herbs do have anti-inflammatory benefits, but it could be arguable that taking an ibuprofen is just as effective.
However, over exerting during iron palm training CAN cause long term issues like arthritis if not done properly due to the constant inflammation from impact.
@@jaimemunoz5920 that said, the after care process has been used for a long time and has been proven effective. So I don't argue with it.
My uncle practised iron palm for years.
The sound of him hitting steel was sickening and amazing at the same time.

Admirable discipline! Iron kung fu training can’t be completed in a week, but if you kept this up for a few months i bet you’d get through the brick!

THIS video was so intense, damn I wanna do that too. Powerful video. I loved it.
I've been training iron fist for a couple months, and I can say one the thing that definitely helped me was the absence of pain, once you break through the first little while of pain it becomes easier and easier as you go on.
Did ur fist become stronger ?
Have fun with your arthritis
@@travis8106 honestly i dont really care
@@BenDover-ch9vg How about you have a friend type that for you again in 5 years when your hands don't work 😭
@@travis8106 only the weak develop arthritis, i simply will just not get it
Yo man, you're supposed to use Dit Da Jow to recuperate after every session. I commend your commitment, but do be mindful - your body isn't meant to go through this sort of pain without proportional recovery.
It is ESSENTIAL.
True that. i was about to suggest the same.. he should've rest for a day or two to recuperate well before doing the test..
I've never heard of dit da jow until I saw your comments. Definitely will look into it
@@hafu Do it. It's the best aid you can invest in if you're going to commit to developing yourself in Shaolin Kung Fu, or any martial art.
And while you're at it, you may want to put some time into studying their methods, as well. If it's alright with your Shifu, look up other fighting monks like Shi Heng Yi or Shi Yan Lei, who both have a presence on CZcams and social media.
This is a path worth walking, and I don't want you to see it end early by diving into what you don't know. Remember your early training - walk, don't run.
@@hafu It’s traditional for real martial arts from China. Surprised you never heard of it.
I lived in Asia for 24 years and trained in Iron Hand in a Temple environment for a number of years, but it took the full 24 years to train the hand properly. We had a lot of strengthening methods over the years, ranging from a large wok with gravel in that would be heated and striking it. Iron sand in bags to strike. Similar to Makawara training with rope around wood. There was one long bag with ball bearings in. Hanging large diameter bamboo. Hitting the training areas with a rolled bunch of wooden chopsticks. Hitting rush mats on the floor or over logs, plus lots more. Always, but always we would start and finish by heating our hand (we only trained our right dominant hand/fist because the left was for grabbing) over charcoal and then dunking the hand into warmed Chinese herb solutions made by the Sifu. This had to be done regularly and constantly massaging the hand to prevent serious joint problems now and in the future. It had to be built up in stages so the bones, tissue, ligaments, etc., could thicken until we could easily punch through bricks, break a coconut with the back of the fist and tiles with the palm. I didn’t train the palm, only knuckles, back of the fist/hand and inside wrist/thumb joint area. The Chinese balm is crucial to not damaging the bones and tissue and it would toughen the hand and joints. Some Chinese KungFu actors used to only do press-ups on knuckles and then sandpaper the callouses to show more, but they didn’t have the bone density and thickness that came from striking, but looked cool. Our knuckles swelled and grew to large size over the years. Interesting videos you have. Well done.
man.. i bet if you were to punch a brick the entire wall cries?
Classic Training.Thank You. 🙏
Lol he lied the entire time the wood was presawn most of the way through same with the porcelain look at the falt lines before he tryed to break them

Nah, this stuff is supposed to be done in one month to reduce the risk
good job for not giving up man i watched this whole series
I do the sand punching and knuckle pushups so I know how painful it is, it literally tears up your skin at first. This guy might become Shang chi someday if this goes on.
I want to start iron fist training will it cause arthritis in the future?
I've just been punching a smooth concrete wall everyday in the last month or two, 1st week and my skin tore off. Now, I can punch coarse concrete bricks without bruising, of course I dont hit it that hard. I can atleast break a plywood now without it hurting

Love your content. Really hope you keep this going.
This was amazing...kiddos to your hard work, it paid off...wish you could have shown some recovery/healing tips for your injured hands.
6:25 your first day in mc.
Very interesting and entertaining video. I did notice that you stuck out your thumbs to balance your body 4:15 but that also takes away some of the pressure from your knuckles. Put those thumbs back into your fist soldier! Yeah I definitely wouldn't recommend doing this for most people. That was pretty intense to do all that in one week especially since you started with soft knuckles to breaking real boards and tile(though I suspect they're probably scored but still pretty hard for someone who never trained their knuckles before). Lots of people look at that tile and think that it's so thin that would be a piece of piss to break but tile is obviously really hard and they're heavy for a reason. Great job, now put some ice on those hands I think they need a vacation. lol
Hey My Guy!
You clearly have the heart to train and give it your all! In my opinion, you should put that heart towards movements that your body is designed to do, and build your condition internally.
I think that usually people train with herbs, and practice gradually over years, combining micro fractures in the hands with qi gong in the body to harmonize ones internal condition. The way I was taught, Iron Fist originated as a method to cripple one hand into a club for self defense, and monks changed this technique from a crippling practice to one of healing because people who did this died much younger from illness.
If you decide to continue this practice for yourself, or portray it to others, please practice under the direct guidance of a master who can help you train in a way that is balanced for your whole condition.
All the best,
Tyler
honestly super proud of Hafu for not giving up
7:30 "i wanan break something" your hand, man this take time, a lot of time
Good video. I was very glad that you informed the viewers about the potential hazards of nerve damage and the potential of developing arthritis
Wonderful vlog with master level editing skills...It means u have not just worked hard for iron punch but worked for video editing as well .

I would think, even tho it's a harder surface, that the porcelain is easier to break than the wood since it not as thick and it's a lot more brittle.
So called 'masters', karate students and other m arts practitioners use YTONG blocks and boards, ceramics, and thin wood board that we use in school for making things, u can break that with ur dik not only with hand... Useless showing of power... Let them try breaking our balkan wood board, real brick and iron plate...u ll brake ur hand but none of these, maybe shaolin monk but these jerks for sure can t...
@@gamingforlife9704 Your saying it as if you can break a brick with a single finger 💀
@@brine_5162 i can break a brick with a fist, wood board too... But i can not break iron plate... I have trained 3 years shotokan karate, boxing 1 year, wing chun few months... I was 2nd best fighter in my club, after europian karate champion...
If you use an Small tile likeq 10x5x1 it will probably stay intact unless you hit with only one or two knuckles. Breaking wood wouldn't work against a surface so ends up being easier to do with harder or softer woods and nearly impossible with flexible ones.
Deppends on what you're trying to see:
Wood for brute strength
Porcelain for velocity and explosive power (it's a lot more brittle, yes, but if you don't have the speed and explosive power, if and when it breaks, it will cut you)
Bricks for the overall, you see, the thing with a brick is that you got to be able to hit like a hammer, but with enough speed.
Well done, Grasshopper. You have accomplished much more with your humor than with your 7 day speedy course. I was greatly amused.
I so appreciate this video! 😂 It shows what I have to look forward to if I ever attempt 😂😂😂
My karate coach always did nuckle push-ups after the training while we did normal ones. At some point I thought it looked cool, so I adapted and since then I’m regularly doing them. Now I finally know, what they are good for. Thanks
they're good for both

Leg it man 🔥 coz it's winter time u had faced many problem and got very painful pain u r a hard worker 🔥 keep it up bro❤
Congratulations Bro..No doubt U must be in pain in that moment but the satisfaction will be for a long 😂😂😂
10/10 deadening the nerves in the hand makes it so you can punch harder into denser stuff without feeling too much pain. The end game is not painless. The endgame is being strong willed enough and disciplined to deal with the pain and still break whatever it is you strike
Hafu, watching your self motivation to go beyond, is inspirational. Outstanding!
I can imagine a sibling fight with these ...
I really have mad respect for you bro keep it up
2:29 chinta ta Chita chita chinta ta taa

5:35 just gave me "hey guys today we are in the suicide forest" memories
Compared to day 1 the supporting concrete bricks were also more far apart. That helped too.
Also actually putting weight and force behind it. If the 1 week of goofing did anything it was make him think he could do it
Might be a good idea to substitute time to massage sand or rice alternatively with your hands. Helps to allow mobility and strength back into hands when starting to feel arthritic.
great effort for Iron Fist training. I'm still training Iron Fist but still not mastered it. I train when got free time
Never stop doing these things bro 💸making our day better
its make me remember my Silat Training Days. boy and my school is traditional styled so its very hard. never had indoor training, day or night, morning or midnight, rain or hot burn under scorching sun, bare knuckleed push ups on everything, asphalt, paving, rocky yards, for years. my knuckles were just like rock. literary, its hard, thick skin, and it is Black, it was just as rock.
hahaha.
The rope on wood is called Makiwara it's a karate training tool
Dude , now i really have mad respect for you bro keep it up 👍
3:33 When You Do it For the First time......
I got u bro 😂😂
Being naughty 🌚✌🏿
Would need to do this training at very least 1 month to see any proper progress... Or a year to achieve level where the training actually brings some of the benefits that is meant to bring.
Whole point is to break skin and slightly fracture bones and as they overtime heal and break again they each time get stronger. In 7 days there is barely time for any of that process :D
of course the board was solid and uncut in the middle, well done man✊😤✊
8:15 coming from someone who's working on the general construction field for 16 years you're not breaking a piece of plywood and have the edge where it broke look that clean it would've been jagged and splintered also that looked like 1/2 or 5/8 plywood you're not breaking that with a punch nice try though we can all see the saw mark on the edge where you pre cut the plywood but not all the way through
Finally someone has realise that this is all fake
Great determination Hafu Go.
You are great man.
Great job bro!👍🏼
I love this video. It is truly amazing what we can do when we train our bodies and our minds.
Please don't take this personally but, I feel that rather than that it's truly amazing what kind of damage one can do to one's own hands when they simply enough just put their mind to slamming their hands against a rock on day 6 after 5 previous days of what is essentially hand abuse on other way too hard objects...7 days...way too hard of objects...not a wise decision but surely one that can have real and maybe unfortunately lasting consequences. I would hope that no one will follow in the footsteps of anyone doing the sort of supposed iron palm "training" we're seeing in this video here.
0:41 bruh hafu LOOOOL
2:22 nice music btw
Some of the best best content on the platform
8:17 I thought he was gonna say “oh god, that felt good”, instead he said “oh god, that f***in hurt” 😂
cool shit man! The Makiwara (rope on a wooden beam) is actually a little flexible so you can generate more power without breaking your hand. It's a little different to your improvised one. Also a little advice for hitting it: don't pull your hand away immediatly, so the force that you are releasing with the punch comes back to your hand, it is more effective. watch steven wonderboy thomsons video on handconditioning it gives you a little more indepth explaination
after watching so much Kung Fu movies, I sometimes imagine myself fighting gangsters lol or even flying from there to there. This video was a nice experience to see the insight training of Kung Fu!
you're a badass
@Genos sussy
It’s awesome and brave that you did this. But man, be careful on your knuckles push ups, your shoulders and your back isn’t going to like the fact you go sideways on the right while going down. Stay straight and bend your arms in the same time 💪🔥
Great content hafu I'm proud to say I've been here since u first started and I've always loved your videos they're so inspiring and you constantly make bangers back to back
As one that practices and breaks.. that board broke amazingly straight down the middle against the grain. Remarkable. Never seen it do like that before. Unless I am seeing it wrong.
Hes done it before. Hes just being overdramatic for views
@@lilosnitch3247 it'd be boring if he broke that wood and his reaction is like Squidward's am i right?
I agree with you that breaking a board against the grain so cleanly and straight is suspect, and it is extremely difficult. Breaking porcelain or brick is more likely to be less difficult to break than soft pine boards against the grain.
I don't recall any martial arts breaking demonstrations where practitioners break boards against the grain; have you?
Absolutely that board was cut
Lol you can see that it is a BreakBoard..its meant for practicing lol pretty much for stunts

@@hafu 7 days not long enough. It takes months to years of daily dedication.
This man puts his life on the line for CZcams- he could simply have gotten arthritis and never be able to do CZcams or anything normally again- I’ve been watching him for a while but the stuff that he does is amazing
I liked both yours and Brandom Williams videos on Iron fist, both of your videos are very similar and I liked it
Lets appreciate all the things he does for us
He is going through so much pain
Fadias enter the chat😏
From what I understand, when doing each of these training methods it’s not about speed during the starting stage it’s generally about consistency in technique and strength, once doing this for let’s say a month then you can focus on speed
主要是硬度，增强手掌肌肉的密度和抗击打能力。
nope, not speed especially not strength, the goal is to not hit it too hard then progress and add force
Yes
I have a book that explains it well .
The dynamic art of breaking.
7 whole days??? That's real dedication.
“MoOn PrIsM pOwEr, GiVe Me StReNgTh”
In my experience the better training is hitting semi-hard objects or water like because flesh is semi hard and absorb impacts. Many times your punches and kicking don't damage or you end in fracture because hitting flesh is pretty different than hitting hard objects. It's more important know how to dig your punches and kicks into flesh and bone than breaking wood.
Knuckle push ups are useful too in order to correct proper alienation of the wrist.
Unless you aim for the face.
It's meant to makes your hands solid like stones.
And what is the purpouse of that is a bit useless :S ifnyou want cut wood axes are better t'han any fist, ifnyou want selfndefense axes or knives, and idnyou want really kill someone or good ultimate selfndefense a little hiden Gun and shoot fast against the opponent. I have martial arts experience Friends and end bad against thief with knives vs me that i never practise martial arts, im very small Guy and thin and with only one hit of my loyal all life axe companion i end some thief in ground here now on Àsia and in past on my native Pirineu snow mountains land... Seems more like for have self confidence or look Cook to others than any other reason 😅
Trained iron fist for 4 years officially, just now moving onto bricks and metal. Just takes time lol
Insane. All that progress in just 1 week. No one expected that you can break a brick. But I didn't know that you will break anything in just 1 week
I use to do knuckle push up daily at 1 hour I use to do 50. I can feel u bro it use to pain too much I use to do rope punches too
You should do more Kung fu videos hafu
Normally you would start softly and take plenty of time before increasing intensity or harness of material. You also want work on your grip strength too.
"Definitely don't try this at home".....
Me watching the video just to replicate at home 😅😂
if you want to push up clenched that is used to support is the index finger and middle finger, if you use the ring finger and little finger it will cause the eye nerve
You punched those things so hard they they looked like they were precut in the punch shots. Crazy stuff man!
Yeah, clearly !
if you punch porcellana It Splinter not cut in perfect half
Let's all just take a second to remember his first punch was the equivalent of a 3 year old girl slapping a couch. Day 7 was some full force punches.
Imagine someone slaping you but it feels like you got punched 50 times
A pre broken board helps
one the best ways to get a harder punch is train like this once every two days for 2 hours it helped a lot in boxing
Cute, the precut board was great!
Thank you for great exercises.....I trained with hitting trees walls floor ....now I am almost feel less
8:58 got me hyped
this is interesting as when i do pushup i always use the knuckles. the pain on my knuckels is simply less than the pain from bending my wrist to a 90 degree angle.
"I can't hold a hammer due to the pain, BUT I can just beat the nail in with my hand."
0:15 "I wanna have Iron fist..." If you wanna have an iron fist, you need to train for 7 years not for 7 days only. Train both fists not only the right fist. Incase you injured 1 fist and become a marshmallow fist, at least you have 1 iron fist to use.
Thanks, French Bruce Lee!
What a high iq 🤣
French Bruce Lee is onto something here
@@sagesmith8443 be watah mah fwen
When training sand punching or sand bag slapping, you need to focus on the technique/position of each punch so that it become a muscle memory first before you speed it up.
You have the right way of training, just need to focus on doing it right in every punch before slowly increasing the speed.
Overall it’s a good content, keep it up.
Speed isn’t everything even those monk that train for years are still doing it slowly ensuring every step is right.
Good job man
Thanks for the video man, but for those who don't have any experience with this type of training. I don't recommend that they follow what you did. A huge part of iron body training is the slow progression of conditioning over time. You shouldn't be performing it before you reach a baseline level of conditioning. That usually takes about six months or more depending on the body part you are conditioning. If you progress too fast you do not have the underlying bone, skin and qi (for those who practice the qigong aspect) built up to protect you.
A safer training regimen would be to start with you softest material conditioning material. Train it will proper technique for a month or more. I would recommend three to get your baseline conditioning for your bone and skin density to build up. After each session use a good dit da jow. Thoroughly massage your hands from your finger tips back to your wrists for a few minutes a day to free up blood stagnation and help heal in between sessions. If you don't have a dit da jow. You can use cool water and follow the same massage procedure as the jow.
I do recommend getting some jow. It will help you heal faster. You can progress through your training materials keeping the 1-3 month pace, but listen to your body. If you are getting sore from training a level. Check your technique, or spend more time at that level before moving on.
I have been doing iron fist for over a year now and I can tell you that my knuckles are much denser now. And I can also break 3 bricks with my hand
in 10 years you'll be able to break 30 bricks, that's enough to cause significant structural damage on small buildings
Love to hear that, keep it up and make your hands as strong as a diamond
@@atropa6053 lol
What I think to stay motivated is that everytime I feel pain I think that I was levelling up
Quick question buddy.
I've been training the dagger technique for almost 15 years, can I still train iron fist or did my bone structure shifting make it impossible? Because I'd love to mix them with the gun technique to create a new style called
"spear fishing"
My biggest issue is I'm a little low on power (bigger body kinda slows you down) my dagger style is worth it, the gun style adds a small kick, but the follow through loses too much energy
Actually, you need to rest and let your fists recover and become stronger.
