Gu Yu Cheung's Iron Palm Method

By Neil Ripski

Gu Yu Cheung's Heavy Hands is possibly one of the best kept secret Iron Palm methods in Chinese Martial Arts. Master Gu was an incredibly famous Northern Shaolin Master who travelled to the South to teach, answering many challenges and never losing. He is documented in the most famous iron palm photograph today – Sifu Gu himself slapping through thirteen bricks without spacers, resting on the earth.

Made available for the first time, Sifu Neil Ripski shares his knowledge of this powerful qigong technique.

**NOTE**

The most important part of this or any qigong practice is to avoid qigong bing 氣功病 (qigong sickness) which is most often related to creation of heat through visualization and imagination. Heavy hands has a motto that one must keep in mind in order to not only gain the full benefit of the training but avoid qigong sickness.

The bones are light and cool, /

the flesh is heavy and wet.

Be sure the body cools after the postures are finished! Do not seek to continue with the feeling of warmth. Do not chase the fire.
