Chen Qiao also knew that the people in front of him couldn't say what the reason was, so he didn't wait for the three in front of him to answer and directly said the answer.

"Some people say that the bigger the muscle, the greater the manpower, and the smaller the muscle, the smaller the manpower.

In fact, this sentence is also true.

Why is this correct? ”

"Because the muscles are not necessarily big, but the muscles of the people, the kind that are particularly thin, the strength will definitely not be too great!"

Well?

This immediately caught everyone's attention.

Li Shuixin asked suspiciously: "Isn't it true that the bigger the person, the bigger the muscles, the more powerful?"

Could it be that the little man has more strength than the big man?

I don't understand this statement a little! ”

Chen Qiao felt a little helpless, how could he recognize it like this?

Indeed, in the eyes of many people, the stronger the muscle mass, the greater the strength, and the smaller the muscle mass, the less strength.

In fact, human strength is not determined by muscles.

Of course, strength comes from muscles, and is attached to muscles, and a very thin person must have a limited amount of strength.

But strength and muscle size are not completely positively correlated, not that the larger the muscle, the greater the strength.

To understand the relationship between strength and muscle, let's first look at the composition of muscle, which is composed of muscle fibers, muscle fibers have the ability to contract, and the nervous system forms the body's locomotor system and completes various motor functions.

It is mainly composed of the muscle membrane, sarcoplasm, nucleus, and myofibrils. The contraction of muscle cells depends on myofibrils, so myofibrils are the main source of strength.

Through training stimulation and recovery, we can thicken the myofibrils and bring about an increase in muscle strength.

Unfortunately, myofibrillar doesn't have much potential to grow in size, and no matter what kind of training you do, it won't grow much in size.

So, if your myofibrillar size has been set, it is originally that big, no matter how you practice, although the strength will increase, the growth will not be too big. ”

Yuan Hong was a little puzzled, he asked rhetorically: "Then why are those generals in ancient China all tall, and I haven't seen any thin ones become generals!" ”

"That's a very good question!"

Chen Qiaoxiao's explanation.

"This is one of the things I want to explain to you, why my country said in ancient times that martial arts should be practiced from a young age, that is, when the human myofifiber has not yet grown into a fixed one, find a way to make it grow bigger.

Myofibrils can grow up before people stop growing and developing, and the tall and powerful that develops normally can naturally determine the strength attributes of people, and the more adult myofibrils are, the more powerful they are.

Therefore, in ancient times, martial arts training should be grasped from a young age, and systematic training is required to make one's myofifibrils grow bigger and more powerful. ”

Liu Qingqing asked cautiously: "Then we should have stopped growing and developing by now, and even if we practice our myofibrils again, they will not grow anymore."

Isn't that just a wasted practice?

But there are many people who have increased their strength through exercise! ”

Chen Qiaoxiao's explanation:

"I mean to stop growing and then work hard to make myofibrils grow, but the growth is actually limited, but it is not that it cannot grow.

That is, the strength to increase is not much, but it is not that it will not grow strength. ”

Li Shuixin's sad face: "That's over, if the growth strength is limited, no matter how much we practice, it's useless!"

What's the use of limited growth in power?

Giants are scary enough, and there are giant crows, and all kinds of large insects, and if one day there is an eagle all over the world, then we can only sit back and wait! ”

Chen Qiao smiled, and couldn't help but give Li Shuixin a stir-fried chestnut.

"I haven't finished yet, what are you anxious about?

I'm talking about the limited strength growth of the myofibrils if the exercise only makes the myofibrils grow.

It's not that we're limited by this power.

Because muscle fibers are actually only a small part of the strength that provides the human body. ”

His words made Li Shuixin's eyes light up.

"You're saying that the main strength of man is not myofibrils alone?"

Chen Qiao nodded,

"Where does the most important strength of man come from?

Very simply, the amount of force that the human body can use is actually related to the skill of exerting force.

Strength is formed by the coordination of individual muscle groups, and a single muscle group cannot complete a coherent movement.

Here, I will talk about what the core muscle group is, which refers to the muscle group of the waist and abdomen, connecting the upper and lower parts of the body.

Its main function is to achieve power transmission.

No matter which muscle group in the whole body exerts force, it must be conducted through the core muscle group, so even if the muscle strength of a certain part of the body is particularly developed, the core muscle group is too weak, and the muscles cannot be exerted.

This is one of the reasons why in ancient times we who practiced martial arts had to practice the waist of a tiger, the most important thing is the waist!

If the waist is not good, what martial arts practice is for nothing!

So then again, why do people have no muscles in their fingers, but they have so much strength, and when they carry a sack of wheat and rice in a bucket in the countryside, they have no problem carrying dozens of catties or hundreds of catties, what is the reason?

In fact, it is very simple, because the people who do these jobs use the strength of the waist and abdomen, and those who don't know how to use the waist can't do any work! ”

Speaking of this, Chen Qiao paused for a moment and let everyone digest the knowledge and content before continuing

It can be seen that the coordination of the body and the use of waist and abdominal strength are one of the main sources of strength of the human body.

The last and most important one is the nerve group.

I asked you just now, what is the reason why human fingers have no flesh, but they are very powerful?

You don't know, so I'm telling you now, because the fingers, even without flesh, are one of the densest parts of the human body.

And the reason why the fingers have so much power is, of course, because of the action of the human nerve group, the brain controls the limbs.

This is the most important key to the cognition of martial arts practitioners, that is, thinking!

If you dare to think, you can dare to do it, and if you don't dare to think, then there is no possibility! ”

After speaking, Chen Qiao began to take out his own cold weapon, of course, other people's cold weapons were the same as his.

Because in terms of physical fitness, although the clones are divided into male and female, almost all of them are not much different in strength.

After all, they have not been born for a long time, who is stronger than whom!

Now they all have a sword on their bodies, and they also carry two short sticks one meter long.

"Cold weapons and guns are king, but before guns appeared, it was spears that dominated the battlefield.

Knives are generally not very useful on the battlefield, and sometimes you may not be able to hack someone to death if you cut them twice.

But if you stab someone with a spear, it's pretty much the same.

In the first edition of Qi Wuyi's new book on the discipline school, many weapons were included, but the knife was not included because it was useless.

It wasn't until the second edition that the use of the knife was barely included, but it was still useful with a shield.

Otherwise the knife is useless on the battlefield!

On the battlefield, it is usually guns and bows and muskets that can dominate victory!

If you are close, you can use heavy weapons such as hammers and whips or maces, and generally there is nothing to do with knives. ”

Yuan Hong nodded, agreeing with this sentence.

"At that time, there was a fight between the educated youths and the educated youths, and one of the educated youths held a firewood knife and cut the other like a blood gourd, but he didn't die.

The one who was cut in a hurry, took a plug, and directly stabbed the one with the firewood knife, and then the blood flowed in an instant, and he died on the spot.

It's true that three or four slashes can't withstand a stab. ”

Chen Qiao nodded.

"That's right!

So, that's why I asked the veteran robot to give us a sword, our sword, which has a blade 60 centimeters long and a handle 22 centimeters long.

When we hold a sword, we can use it as a short soldier, but if we encounter a strong enemy, we can combine it with a gun, two one-meter-long guns and a long sword more than 80 centimeters long, which can form a spear of about two meters and seven meters.

Because the ancient spear was a combination of a spear and a long sword, which could be stabbed and chopped, and it was also the predecessor of the cavalry armor-breaking horse lance in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

And because of the material, whether it is a gun or a long sword, it is not heavy but it is extremely tough, and the sharpness is acceptable.

A spear of about 2 meters 7 long and about 5 pounds, as long as we use it skillfully, self-protection is not a problem!

Now, I'm going to teach you the basic movements of the spear, the first one is the stabbing, this action needs to be practiced 1000 times today, and then according to the condition of the body, a certain amount of time will be given to rest.

Okay, now the training starts ......"

In fact, martial arts training is boring, but this kind of boring training is necessary, everyone who can escape death in danger is basically a person with very strong willpower.

This kind of willpower is very tenacious, and in peacetime in a peaceful society, it may not be very useful and different from ordinary people.

But if in the current world, a wild world full of dangers, every advantage here can make one's survival reliable.

They need to practice the prick, and once they get used to the movement, they go to the target to practice the feeling of piercing into the object.

"In ancient times, when a general rode a horse and held a horse lance to hedge, he would stab forward at the moment of contact, and then release the control of his shoulder at the moment of stabbing, let his arm and the barrel of the gun swing back, and then pull out the tip of the gun, or cut sideways, and then pull out the tip of the gun.

If you don't know how to exert yourself and haven't practiced targeting, you are likely to be knocked off your horse by the force of the collision when you hedge against the enemy. ”

This is different from the so-called knights in the West.

Therefore, in ancient China, even the skills of fighting wars needed to be inherited.

Chen Qiao explained to them. The essentials of the movement, while taking them through the training of the stabbing movement.

Suddenly, Wan Xiaoqian walked out and said to Chen Qiao: "Chen Qiao, the research is going well, it has been carried out to the next step, we need animal experiments." ”

Chen Qiao nodded: "Okay!" I'll get you something to catch a frog and come back! ”

Frog fishing, that's a memory from my childhood.

I seem to be quite excited.
