@Peter Hofmann The purpose of that exercise seems to be primarily to develop stability in your body (learn to control the weight, not let the weight control you). It requires super strong forearms but it's a full body movement. Skill is definitely involved because there is lots of room to develop your own technique of twisting the weight from one side to another

How long were the stick and the cord? and how much weight was tied to it?
Like about 2,5 - 5kg?
please answer!
who's the Monkey Fist Teacher ??
The last exercise. Let's get some crossfiitters and mma know it alls to show us how it's done.
How strong is master Hasan's grip strength. With those big hands of his can he submit your average man just grabbing him? There are only 54 people on earth who can squeeze down the number 4 hand gripper. If he can do it on you tube it will add more credibility to monkey kungfu.
I Moved to Hong Kong to study hung kuen 7 years ago. This guy is the real deal and one of the few that understand the internal arts. Incredible!
Have you met him personally.
real master with real skill with real and normal personality. Kung fu is not dead.
Most traditional martial artists are a bit crazy in the head - they don't really live in the present day
You saved us when you showed our generation is not all soft brother!! Conan! Great content man... just found your channel a few days ago... make me want to travel to this area of the world!
I really enjoyed following along. I used to train kung fu so I could understand it somewhat. I felt these exercises gave me energy instead of taking it from my body/using it from my body. :)
This has been great to watch! Thanks guys 👍🏼
Thank you very much Matthew!
Wow what an amazing video to show what an experience is meant to master king fu with great discipline
Using your own strength and pushing is great. Ive been doing it for a long time just not in that style, doing things like having my hands grip each other as hard as possible, arm wrestling myself, and just pushing on each other palm to palm as hard as possible.
Really nice bro, thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work
Glad you liked it, thank you as well
Danke für die tollen Einblicke welche Trainingsmetoden es noch gibt.👍
Der sollte mal zurück nach Deutschland kommen und hier echtes Kung Fu einführen! : )
@Peter Hofmann
Na das was ich geschrieben habe!
Using energy to create energy. Pure joy when the channels are open.
Wow... Great to see this amazing video.. Hope more videos uploaded, by the way, how many kilos is that?
Nice video. Thanks for documenting this!
Thanks! Episode 3 is also out! www.vahvafitness.com/the-worst-pain-ever-harden-bone-kung-fu/
This channel has high professionalism, is educational and very useful, and this is my favorite channel 👍. I have to say that. It's much better than many others channels this type.
Thank you Nebojsa, we try to do our best to generate great content that helps people
10:55 deserves a better song to be played
Your approach to fitness is way ahead is next level!! keep it up bro!! Love you videos always!!
Thank you sanjeev
This is how it was always meant to be before people got lazy. Not next level. Old school.
internal kung fu is good but it also helps to be built like a truck driver - I also practice Hsing-yi's lat pulldowns, Bagua's bench press, and TaiJi's heavy bag training.
Could you please elaborate on these exercises?
It helps to be phisically as truck driver. It seems every movement is qi gong ? Where are the differences? 🤷♂️
Cara queria muito fazer o curso completo mais pra mim é muito caro... esse é um grande mestre com muitos conhecimentos e ainda disponibilizando esse grande tesouro no curso 👏👏👏👏
You are so lucky buddy!! You can learn from a very great master!! 🙏❤️
Great video and GREAT music at the end...
Thank you
Nice video, thanks for sharing. Is there any specific reason why the fingers are interlaced during the spine stretching exercises? Thanks in advance, James
Yes. Going clubbing and pumping muscles are both relevant to learning internal martial arts and about the Dao.
This is the only foreigner that I have seen that has really mastered Gongfu. Bravo!
Hey. I notice the posture your doing before the video start looks almost identical to my internal style dai xinyi. It's referred to ask "monkey squatting" and helps train dsntisn rotation and opening/closing of the sacrum amongst other things. Does this develop similar stuff?
You should make a video on the mediations you learned brother
Great video guys. It hurts just looking at the marks on your forearms!
Thanks Fredd!
I see a master of movement! thanks for your intense passion!
Thank you David!
About that barbell disk suspended on a stick.
Some time ago I had to shovel a good deal of gravel (we did the parking spot), and couldn't help but notice that handling a simple shovel actually requires the application of your body power in many unique ways. As I did the barbell training at the time (squats, cleans, jerks -- such stuff), I appreciated how much more complicated movement simple shoveling is. A couple of days before I read about them using weights in traditional kung-fu. It definitely rings some bells :D. After all, the original Qigong and kung-fu borrowed a lot from everyday tasks people had to do in ancient times.
Now back in Finland you have some snow, don't you :) So I wonder if you use shoveling the snow in your backyard as an exercise.
Thanks for your videos, nice job!
No need to borrow anything, for everything is gong fu.
Boxer
Boxes 🎉
@@kasumifu1541 So do you think those stories about the monks originally training some movements fr agricultural works are "false hits" (as stories often are)? Or do you mean I should use "inspired" instead of "borrowed"?
Thanks for another awesome video! 💖 What was the weight of that mysterious toy thing?!
I think the weight is only 2.5 kg (5lbs) but the leverage multiplies it a lot!
That blonde guy looks like Ironfist...
except 10x better
awesome instruction - thank you
Thank you as well Jef
Omg I seen that move long time ago in a tai chi class that was obscure
I must say I got addicted!!!nice work guys!we want more!
Did he teach you chi gong and nei gong?
Who was the teacher of the Monkey Kung fu teacher?
HOW much does it cost per month to attend classes?
are there any European branches?
Thanks, we have more videos coming out. We learned a lot of stuff. Read our 3 articles here to learn more about the background and find his Fb page for the recent prices: www.vahvafitness.com/real-kung-fu/
No idea of European branches.
keep going 👍
This way of fitness to practical use is much better
voy a practicar ese ejercicio...
en otra ocasion , te comparto un ejercicio de taiji quan
Well done with the weighted stick exercise
Thanks, it was an interesting tool
Great cinematography!! Much Longevity too you 😁
Thank you, same!
عالم الكونغ فو عالم مليئ بالاسرار واساليب القتال والتدريب وهذا شيئ عظيم تحية للمدرب أستاذ الكونغ فو اظن انك من سورية هكذا اخبروني اصدقائي
Love the series
anybody know how much that weight on the string is? I tied a 5 pound dumbell to a string and stick I found and it is pretty effective, but would like to compare.
Back got to big couldn't get shirt off ha ha.awsome stuff very interesting.
It was also like super hot humid weather there so you get sweaty easily

please answer!
Welcome! I think it was probably 5 kg but the leverage makes it seem a lot more
Is always surprising how this master is so muscular, yet so soft and flexible.
What is the music used in the video.Where can I purchase it?
Wow it was amazing
Thank you Rouf, glad to hear!
does they do forms of standing meditations? learned it a few weeks ago and practice it on a daily basis since then, feels very powerful too. :)
Yes, we also learned various standing meditation forms from Hou Quan and Yiquan! It's very powerful stuff
@@Vahvafitness have you integrated that in your routine since then? :)
I love the light comedy 😆
saludos desde El Salvador soy nuevo suscriptor
I think this fitness might have some benefit with my nerve damage in my left leg giving me drop foot
What r the exercises. ..plz tell
How much was the weight on the end of the stick
It is intereting to see. These are all standard gongfu morning practices. even little kids learn this. they become more difficult when your musscles are too large. that is why in the past the gongfu masters were not overly concentrated on developing big muscles, because they are in the way for agility, which was higher prized than musculature. It is under the influence of modernization that musculature became a thing. Even in the Chinese daoist wudang mountains where I studied myself it had become an issue, so older teachers retreated from teaching.
18:40 Background. I knew I heard a slight german accent there on the master :D
good job💪
Thanks!
Amazing!!
Thank you Sreejith!
How many kilos is the weight?
You should get in contact with shifu Yan lei!
He seems to be jacked. Maybe we will ;)
Marathon ❤
Qi gong training is useless unless you really try to change your way if doing things. You can't just expect to do a bit here and there to add to your karate or whatever external stuff you do. Internal stuff requires a major change in your muscle memory. You must change the basics. For example relaxation is key. You have tomba able to,totally relax every joint in your body. It's not only a bit of relaxing here and there. You must be able to totally relax at will. Qi can not flow through tense joints. Stand up with knees slightly bent and butt curled forward slightly instead of arching your back like you normally do. Your shoulders must drop. If shoulders are relaxed they will drop. Concentrate deeply to get everything relaxed. Hips are difficult to relax, but a must. You may gave to stand for a long time to attain a totally relaxed body. Don't give up. It's worth it. Forget your old ways. This is much better. It's very hard but worth it. Eventually it will be your natural way.
Wenn kommt davon mehr...?????
Just doing the hands together over my head. I heard parts of me crack that i didn't know existed
What was the injury on your back he spoke of? What caused it?
Modern lifestyle. I had back problems since I was a teen (a long before I started training). Here is my back fixing video: czcams.com/video/t-e1AKPGfXY/video.html
Amazing like
Which style kungfu is this. I really like it
He is the grandmaster of the monkey style but also a master in other kung fu styles
The Tibetan White Crane uses similar exercises. Is this a common training
Most Kung Fu / Qigong styles have similarities between each other
What’s the best way to contact the Taiwan master?
You should be able to contact him via his school's Facebook page (in description)
@@Vahvafitness l love you
Genial......
Thank you Marcus
I do Tai Chi Chuan i Love Martial Arts 🙌👏❤️
Tai Chi is fantastic!
VAHVA Fitness you are travelling and meeting the real masters. A problem is that western people are easy to fool. I have seen so many videos of people calling themselves sifu or master. People actually believe it. I have watched videos getting great comments and millions of views and they have no idea what they are talking about. People see that the guy is a sifu according to himself and they love it. You know there are more phonies than the real thing.
@@Vahvafitness ♥️
teach me i want truely learn this
You want to learn what? You watch a short video and that's it. You found your path in life to follow. What will you get from this? What made you decide that you want to learn something?
You should really look into 99qigong by master tu..
I notice that all the martial arts guys are immensely strong tough guys who probably do not even need martial arts to defend themselves. I remember a Samoan friend of mine who said he was not afraid to go out at night in bad areas. "Nobody bothers me" he said. Of course he was built like a tank with arms like oak trees. Back in the day I carried a small .38 Special SW and luckily I never had to use it. I am skinny and weak.
A small SW makes people equal..
I want Conan forearms!!
I am not going to lie. I lost faith in kungfu after so many of them got defeated in the ring but this guys seems pretty legit. If he was in California I would definitely check it out.
Qi Qong is jewel from china that have been pas down to next generation for many many years unfortunately not many people practice It anymore
Amazing
How about killing a person from a distance without touching them how about using Chi to move objects and a person USA Woodmore PA
I love that these men embrace physical contact.
猴拳 Hóu Quán ( Lausutaan: ' Hou Tsyen ' ) Kirjoitusmerkit: Apina + Nyrkki
'Hou Chyen' or 'Hou Chuan'. I realize this comment is not in accordance with the Dao. We both need to contemplate.
I thought Taijiquan, Baguazhang and Xingyiquan were the only purely internal chinese martial arts, which require fang song (looseness of body). This stuff looks mostly external to me.
The idea of culture revolution is to wipe out everything from the old era, including traditional mannerisms and martial arts. This guy is like an archeologist to excavate these forgotten artifacts of martial arts applications. One aspect is missing in these video, the nerve system, eyes sight reflex conditioning among Shaolin 72 methods. It's a similar to the idea of speed bag in boxing. Ability to evade sharp weapons or punches is more emphasis by the old masters than attacking skills.
for monkey style, i was imagining it would be more accrobatic.
interesting videos
強！
Xiexie!
I love how the instructor really puts these young bucks in their place.
Haha thanks Ali. You better show respect to your elders especially when they are kind enough to teach you
@@Vahvafitness aaA a

That was funny, he's fighting to take off his shirt
Try shifu Kanishka Sharma .....!
Wow~I live in Taiwan. Awesome!
Great country, really enjoyed my stay over there!
How much wheight is there on that stick with the cord?
I think it was around 5 kg but because of leverage it feels a lot more
@@Vahvafitness It looks very diffucult I think i'm going to make one to try it. I love your content about this conditioning I re injured my index finger in sparring and I was thinking before of conditioning my fore arms and hands because of this you have inspired me to look into it again.
That oil they use to rub on your small injuries dit dat jow or something? Do you have any links to find anything good for it online or to make one yourself?
Also I was impressed the master still had full mobility in his joints this proves he knows what he is doing!
Very nice videos and keep it up thank you !
11:10 Mitä?... Eikö suomella muka pärjää Taiwanissa...??
Ei pärjää perkele!
Like styl
Thumbnail looks like the Chad meme
We laugh at camera man but most of us. ( myself included) are in worse shape. 🙃
You should visit different teachers. Go to Shaolin for example, or take a Wushu class at a sport university. To get the full picture.
We are planning to visit new ones in 2019, mostly MMA though.
