    Think about this, if you are in the gym, and want to sit on a basket ball, which one supports your weight? One full of air? or one completely deflated?

    Last weekend, my guys were working at that move for their blue belt test. That move is called "撒(Sa) - Casting". It takes advantage on the spinning momentum. It has nothing to do with "internal power". All my guys can do that and I know there are not Qi masters.

    You compared sitting on a basketball to sitting on a human lung... because they both have air in them.

    Do you have the slightest clue of how ridiculous that makes you sound?

    For one... an NBA approved basketball is at 7.5-8.5 PSI, while a human lung is at 1.5 to a maximum of 2.8. Second of all, a basketball consists of a sealed synthetic rubber shell. A lung consists of soft, porous tissue, and is not sealed.

    It has been said that you can run over a basketball in a truck and not burst it. Try that with an exposed lung.

    Again... the correlation is ridiculous.
