Ginger Fist & Phoenix Eye
Does your Wing Chun Employ The Ginger Fist and Phoenix Eye Fist!!!
Some good condition tools I find for Both are punching a Century Bob, Small Hanging Sand Bag, and Wall Bag. Old School conditioning of course is doing push ups on your ginger fist or phoenix eye. But personally Don't do those. I believe if you do regular push ups you will have power enough. An Punching something with those specific hands will both make it become natural for you and condition your hands at the same time.
Now since I have been on here I have heard people say ginger fisting someone in the body like the ribs or stomach. Personally I prefer Palm strikes below the diaphragm.
Training Ginger Fist and Phoenix Eye on the Century Bob is to drill Locational Spots for striking. So you get striking the weak spots so ingrain in your soul you do it on instinct. It becomes second nature.
Training Ginger Fist and Phoenix Eye on the Wall Bag is strictly to condition those strikes so you don't hurt your hand hitting someone with them!
Key Spots to hit someone
Ginger Fist - Throat, The Nose,Upper Lip of the nose, The chin, under the eyes, Between the eyes at the bridge of the nose,The neck behind the ears, maybe the temples and the neck under the jaw bone.
Phoenix Eye Fist - The Eyes and Under the eyes, Any specific points on the face repeatedly,The temples, Behind the ears on the neck, and the Diaphragm or wind pipe.

The Flow is relentless like a raging ocean with crashing waves devasting anything in its path.
"Kick Like Thunder, Strike Like Lighting, Fist Hard as Stones."
"Wing Chun flows around overwhelming force and finds openings with its constant flow of forward energy."
"Always Attack, Be Aggressive always Attack first, Be Relentless. Continue with out ceasing. Flow Like Water, Move like the wind, Attack Like Fire. Consume and overwhelm your Adversary until he is No More"
