Whew, there's an attention getting topic :P
Ok, well, keeping in mind the source, in Is this real or fake? (http://forum.kungfuonline.com/1/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=126197291&f=340190991&m=1511939872) Turiyan said "People just want to control the system. Did you know that TECHNICALLY, if you come in contact with water, with chi raised in your body, like when you do chi kung, you could theoretically die of pnumonia?"
Wow, that's not cool. So like if I wash my hands after doing my qigong am I going to get sick and die? Granted, I seriously doubt I'm generating much chi at all, but still...
Repulsive Monkey, I appreciate your warnings, and at the first noticable sign of discomfort/bad feeling I plan on quitting. However, here's a weird story for you. About 3 years ago, I was doing Wing Lam's iron body and Green Dragon's stone warrior, everyday, which I learned from tapes. I had an excellent source of instruction on the side who was familar with both programs to help me along when I had questions, but he was over the net, too. I did both of these programs daily for about 1.5 years, and strangely, it's the ONLY 1.5 year period in my life where I never got sick. I always get sick a few times a year, except during that time. Maybe it was just a weird coincidence. Who knows?
btw, as a side note, Wing Lam's iron body says absolutely nothing about reps or sets or length or duration or anything on the tape, so it's almost vital to have someone familar with the training to help you.
Anyway, yeah, I'm not gonna die am I if I get water on me after qigong?
