In your opinion, what's the combat value of this training?

The combat value of certain training methods may not be immediately apparent.

Running for example.
The practice can be done for health or for combative purposes.
The purpose may not be apparent to those who do not practice.

For those who subscribe to the concept of 'Qi,'
they might find practices like this and others interesting or helpful in their own training.

 

[Gao Laoshi]

There is some combat application-- mostly refining different types of gong (skills). For example an advanced aspect of #6 includes training peng (rounded, resilient, rebound power), ji (pressing forward power), cai (pull down), lu (diagonal pulling), an (pushing down), hua (blending 化 with and avoiding an opponent's attack), and kao (aligning the body as though ramming an opponent with the shoulder). This system is often considered part of the Chen Style Taijiquan system and the legacy of renowned martial artists Feng Zhiqiang and Hu Yaozhen.
