Yeah, maybe you should.
How different, may I ask?
It is difficult to develop tendon changing without also to train inner power because the extension is done from the inside and not from being pulled from the outside.
If you want to know, then train in both of them and over time your body will give you the answer, remember: things tended to go from the more simple to the more complex, the more natural to the more...
Baduanjin was first recorded in the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), even the famous scholar Zhuxi (1130-1200) wrote about it in one of his writings, whereas Yijinjing as we know them today, was...
Actually it is the opposite for me - they have similar internal training with different external postures.
Traditional Baduanjin and Yijinjing have different postures as showed in the attached diagram. Modern practitioners tend to mix them up, not knowing their origin and history.

I think you and your partner have a hard time distinguishing between nuances. :cool:
On the other hand, if you didn't yell, he might not have come. :eek: :D

I came, I saw, I smiled.

Hi CFT,
I was going to say something funny, but never mind. Good that you join in.
Hi CFT,
It is not an absolute view, it is just two man' opinions about a couple of photos, but it helps to make us think. That is all.
Stop manifesting! :eek::D
Hi Scott,
There is no perfect stance or form but there is a concept called "wuwei' and "youwei", and it depends on you which path you want to follow.
I agree with you, my 40 years of experience...
Hi Scott,
There is no point in counter arguments because it will only be words (hot air), I would put my money on Master Shi if the two ever decided to "strength test" each other in this posture,...
Nothing will stop you from posting, so why worry about me?
There is no need for us to exchange and share, we are just too different, so let it be. I can sense this right from the beginning.
