Now I'm going to show you another way to practice your Iron Palm. Earlier we did the Horse Stance. Now I'm going to show you the Bow Stance. So earlier is a Horse Stance. Bow Stance, we do the same thing, okay, but just standing in Bow Stance and up. When you feel tired with your legs, you want to shift and change to the right hand. Okay. And of course, do this for a couple hundred times. You can do it like with a combination or you could just do Bow Stance and slap, slap a hundred times and switch legs and switch hands and slap. Switch and chop. Okay then chop. Okay. And of course you could also do it with the elbow. Okay. So this is hitting the, hitting the box with the Bow Stance. Okay. Now whatever you do to one side, you do to the other. And same thing, the first stage, you hit the beans for six months, then go on to the next stage, you hit the gravel for another six months. Then you come up to steel or pebbles. So you put up with a lot of pebbles probably about forty five pounds and do the same thing for another two year or more. Okay. You still hit it. Palm, okay palm. Chop. Chop. Back hand. Back hand. And of course you could do a combination of one, two, three. And switch sides, one, two, three. Do that for a couple of years and you should be strong to break some bricks. Okay. And in the next segment I'm going to show you the actual brick breaking. This concludes this section.
