Definitely the first benefits in qi practice are incredibly increased vitality, and greatly improved strength, health and functioning

I think this page describes the first, and to some people the most important benefits of qi practice, really well. -
"If you feel the "Runners' High" all day long? You don't need this art. If you feel the highest energy you have ever felt called the "Spirit of Vitality" all day long? Read no further. In other words, if you feel the vital energy after just minutes of training like we do all day long? You don't need this art.
If you can honestly say you are able to double or improve your productivity, never get a flu or cold, solve illness such as asthma, heart disorders, high blood pressure, insomnia and palpitations, fatigue, depression and varied injuries? Forget this art. Just read the discussion board for the testimonials to see how it has helped others. "

And from this site
http://www.taijigongfu.com/healthmartial.html
Local illness is often viewed as a failure of life energy or "Qi" to flow freely or correctly in or to that location. Proper practice creates a stronger immune system and general vitality as well. Also, not a small effect though often overlooked, is SWEATING. Chen taijiquan is not easy and practiced as designed one will break into a sweat in a short time. In China sweating from Gongfu practice is seen as very important as it cleans the toxins from the body, especially during internal arts which also use Qi Gong to clean the body.

BUT:

Taiji quan is not a cure-all. It may be very helpful in preventing cancers and other life threatening illnesses as well as aide in recovery and treatments, but it is not a magical cure. Taijiquan by itself cannot overcome an unhealthy lifestyle in the fight against illness. In combination with healthy diet, a manageable stress level and the absence of toxins and tragic genetics, it is a great benefit.

There is a lot more to write about the health benefits of taijiquan practice, but the really deep stuff has to be felt to be understood; the most obvious benefit is the amazing feeling of cellular joy that a practitioner feels on a daily basis!

Heat and electricity seem part of the spectrum of qi. It is why hot will go to cold and vice versa, and not something else. Energy expresses itself according to qi balance.

"Direct action on the affected areas results in rhythmical contraction of a large number of the myofibrils of the skeletal muscles and smooth muscles of the blood vessel walls. "

It can make you involuntarily flap around. It measures skin resistance and then changes it's current and the person can't adapt

Meaning you really feel real energy when in contact with that machine, no vague belief

What else were you thinking they might "go to?" Left? Right? Tacos? Spiny Norman? :rolleyes:

No, they should go to South Qi, sorry - South Quay.

(DLR is in play, but remember that Half-Term Rules apply)
 
Yes exactly, it is why hot is related to cold, up to down, and left to right, and not up to left
 
Benefits of developing qi do not, apparently, include

1) Improved reading comprension
2) The ability to write coherently, or
3) An increase in ability to apply simple logic

I am, of course, assuming Kilik is an example 'developing qi'

Enough qi power will allow you to Turnem green as long as you take into account the leaf fall timetable, in conjunction with the Half-term rules, and stay out of nip by protecting your subdominanant diagonals.
 
Spiny Norman?

"Dinsdale!"

I believe, I think that that refers to the ancient Pirhana wisdom which refers to the ancient wisdom of something's, maybe. Where it causes the retrogressive progression of the sines to a differnt place and where the wisdom was greater than now's. Where Doug was born again two months later and then again after that, I think, anyway thats what I read somewhere.
And Eric the Half a Bee.
Must, ipso facto, half not be.

Cruel, but fair.
 
Well, I'd written a long post in reply to the (badly misunderstood and much mythologized) qi/ki/chi thing, from MY perspective as a student of the martial arts for more than 30 years now. But it got et by the ether and has disappeared. Hm. Maybe that was Kilik's qi acting to prevent me from ...

Nah.

If I get real enthusiastic about it, I'll try to rewrite it and post it later.

In the meantime, there's an excellent aikido website called Aikiweb, run by a dear friend, Jun Akiyama. On that site, there's a list of common Japanese phrases using the term 'ki'. Look under Columns, and Language.

but playing to Stovold’s 2nd Amendment, I'll have to say:

ah, that puts you in nip as I have already declared my subdominant defence.

Oh wait, you said that we're using Stovold’s 2nd Amendment, my mistake, the 2nd amendment clearly permits the transgression of subdominant diagonals, provided that you keep and armed bear with you at all times, or something.

In that case, Lewisham.

and now I've put myself in nip. :boggled:

RANT! It's antics like this, and the kind of showy play it promotes which has given modern MC the poor reputation it's garnered among the "old school" in the last few years. The Johnnny-come-latelies who are only in it for the undeniable adrenaline rush will move on in due course leaving the game ravished and prostrate


Nevertheless, eschewing the obvious double reverse and block....

well, under the 1977 rules play would revert to me, but as I am in nip, I think it would transfer to the player opposite me.

I dunno, I always admired th beauty and simplicity of the '78 rule-set, its just those unthinking Luddites who fear change who hark back to the 77 rules. But as The Don called it first, I'll have to agree to abide by these primitive and uncivilized rules.
