Features: The "Inner" of Internal Martial Arts—Where is the "Inner"? This book reveals it as Internal G (Inner Cultivation). Internal G is originally simple and clear, with almost no complex movements, easier to practice and learn than external G (forms), yet it remains little-known and has almost become an untransmitted secret. This "near-sightedness" in martial arts inheritance must have profound reasons. Author Zuo Zhiqiang is both a dedicated martial artist and a reformer in martial arts education. The three main G methods recorded in this book are the author's long-practiced and proven internal cultivation methods, making it an excellent introductory guide for martial arts enthusiasts and readers who wish to enhance their physical fitness through internal G. This book can serve as a preliminary textbook for internal G practice, and readers will find it beneficial to open and read. Is Internal G the same as Internal Martial Arts? Do Internal Martial Arts have secret heart-mind methods? Can you practice martial arts without practicing G? The author, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood and has studied under four masters, is proficient in various internal martial arts such as Xingyi, Bagua, and Tai Chi. The first part of this book interprets internal martial arts and related questions through casual discussions and Q&A. The second part elaborates on the methods of internal G practice, while the third part includes insights from fellow martial artists and several disciples, along with some photographs. This book can serve as a preliminary textbook for internal G practice, and for martial arts enthusiasts and readers who wish to enhance their physical fitness through internal G, it is an excellent introductory guide.
