Using the fascia under the skin to move or manipulate people seems to be the latest "chi power" feat. No real martial applications unless one is very highly skilled. Anyone have experience with this?
Fascia refers to the vast connective tissue of the human body.
Whether it is soft fat or dense tendon, in the current broad definition, it can be regarded as fascia. But if you look at the functionality from a sports perspective, the function of myofascia (myofascia) is mainly the main function.
The term myofascia includes muscle tissue (myo-) and fascia (fascia), and refers to the fascia that connects muscles. The production and control of movements, in addition to the contraction and stretching of muscles, require fascia to coordinate the balance between muscles and bones.
They cooperate with each other and are inseparable. Robert Schleip, a German myofascial research expert and the author of "Fascial Kinesiology," divides the functions of myofascia into four types: shaping, supply, action, and transmission. Shaping: covering, filling, protecting, supporting and allowing muscles to maintain their shape Supply: metabolism, supplying nutrients to organs Movement: transmitting muscle power, assisting in stretching and resisting resistance Communication: the largest sensory organ in the human body, responsible for external stimulation reception and transmission
Assume one has reached to the high level, what does this kind of "pushing" skill/ability can enhance his combat ability?No real martial applications unless one is very highly skilled.
