Chapter 82 Heaving and crouching like a galloping horse
"Spread your feet at shoulder level, raise your breath, and squat down."
"Horse step, horse step, you have to squat down to make a living horse. You know how to ride a horse. The body rises and falls, so that you don't get tired."
“I’ll give you a mantra to rise and squat like a galloping horse!”
"Stretch your chest and raise your head, with your center of gravity from the top of your head to your buttocks and between your feet. You can imagine it is like a steel bar inserted from the top of your head, through your head and lumbar spine."
Following Zhao Zhilin's words, Qin Chuan had a picture in his mind, his anus tightened, and he shuddered.
Zhao Zhilin raised his hands to his chest, pressed them down again as he exhaled, and then stood up slowly: "Okay, let me do it again."
Qin Chuan had learned to ride a horse, so he naturally knew what the horse stance was like, so he immediately stepped into the horse stance and raised his arms parallel to each other.
He also imitated Zhao Zhilin's ups and downs just now.
Zhao Zhilin didn't say anything, just looked at him.
Five minutes later, Qin Chuan's calves were trembling, his arms were sore, and his facial features were distorted but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.
"You're wrong. The horse's steps are not so undulating." Zhao Zhilin said, "When you get up, your five toes grip the ground like chicken claws."
"Grab your toes hard, it will naturally activate your calf muscles, straighten your knees, tighten your thighs, lift your waist, and tighten your abdomen."
Even though it was a bet, Zhao Zhilin still taught Qin Chuan seriously, without hiding anything. After the instruction, he continued to teach squatting.
"When lying down, open your fingers and relax naturally. When your toes are loose, your knees and thighs will also be loose. At this time, sit on your waist and expand your abdomen."
"During this ups and downs, if you cooperate with your breathing, your body will not be so tired, and you can also exercise the strength of your lower body."
After saying that, Zhao Zhilin returned to his seat: "If you can't learn within three days, don't bother me anymore."
Even though it is just a horse step, there are many points before and after, and it still takes time and effort to learn it.
When he first learned it, he could do it in two days.
Master Lin Shirong said he was a genius.
Those fellow students with better qualifications can learn it in three days, while those with less qualifications can get started in five days at most.
If Qin Chuan wants to learn his Kung Fu skills, he must be someone with upper-level qualifications.
The words of a mediocre person are a complete waste of his time. There are many such people in his martial arts gym.
Qin Chuan didn't answer. He was thinking about what Zhao Zhilin just said. He tried his best to digest it bit by bit and then put it into practice.
I squatted for more than ten minutes and tried several times, but it still didn't work.
It’s not that there’s something wrong here, it’s that the steps are not in place.
Not practicing properly is more tiring than practicing blindly.
At first it was just a soreness in the calves, but now the soles of my feet are almost cramping.
"Ready for the next one."
"Qinchuan."
The assistant director shouted, Qin Chuan put away his horse, nodded towards Zhao Zhilin, and then trotted over to listen to Zhou Xingchi's narration.
In this scene, the second-in-command of the Ax Gang, Fei Xue, was punched and sent flying into a gasoline barrel, and his subordinate summoned someone with a cloud-piercing arrow.
So Brother Chen took hundreds of his younger brothers to wipe out the Pig Cage Walled City.
Zhou Xingchi was also very generous. Hundreds of extras were actually used on the scene. Everyone was wearing a suit and holding an ax in hand.
After the filming started, Ax helped his brother capture a mother and son and douse them with gasoline.
Qin Chuan, who was in a suit and leather shoes, looked at Fei Xue's injuries and faced the people in the Pig Cage Walled City who were knocked to the ground. He said in a lazy tone with a hint of murderous intent: "Who did it?"
"I'll count to three."
Then he took out the lighter and said: "One."
"Two~"
The second sound was very long, as if giving the attacker time to stand up.
As a result, no one came out, so he didn't bother to count to the third time and just threw the lighter at the mother and son who were doused with gasoline.
"Click, pass!"
Zhou Xingchi's voice came from the scene again.
The way everyone looked at Qin Chuan was a bit wrong.
These days, Qin Chuan spends most of his time in one pass, and the few who NG are Zhou Xingchi who wants to see where his limit is and deliberately NG.
As a result, Qin Chuan's performance was not as good as the first one.
Zhou Xingchi was speechless and could only recognize the fact that the best thing for Qin Chuan was the first thing.
In the next scene, Shi Xingyu catches the lighter.
Qin Chuan's face was expressionless, and hundreds of his subordinates rushed forward.
After filming this, Qin Chuan's role is gone today. He found an open space nearby and continued to study horse steps.
Another half hour passed with little progress.
When he finished work in the evening and returned to the hotel, he took out a small notebook, drew the horse steps, and wrote down the essentials next to it.
Then I simply created a character biography template.
Take out the Nuo tools and put them on your face, and then you will start to fall asleep.
…
In the dream, Qin Chuan also started learning from scratch. It took him a week to get started.
Not in a hurry to wake up, he continued to squat.
Half a month, a month, two months... until half a year later.
The lower body is as solid as a rock and will not move despite the wind and rain.
Qin Chuan felt that the power of the bottom plate was so terrifying that he could become the King of Wheels.
Sure enough, squats are the greatest tonic for men.
in reality.
The next day, noon.
Zhao Zhilin carried a thermos cup to the set for filming.
"Teacher Zhao." Qin Chuan stopped him, scratched his head and said, "I seem to have mastered that horse step. Do you want to take a look?"
This is so impossible!
Zhao Zhilin's first reaction was this.
He knew exactly what time Qin Chuan got off work yesterday, and he didn't have much time to practice horseback riding when he returned to the hotel.
Unless he stayed up all night.
Even if I stay up all night, it hasn't been that long since last night.
Just half a day.
He got started in two days and was already a genius. Qin Chuan got started in half a day. How could he still be considered a genius among geniuses?
"Prick it, let me take a look." Zhao Zhilin said expressionlessly.
Immediately, Qinchuan stepped forward.
Keep your toes on the ground to activate your calf muscles and bones, keep your knees straight and your thighs tight.
The lower body is fine.
For the upper body, raise the waist, tighten the abdomen, hold the head high, and hold the hands parallel as if grasping the reins. With each exhalation and inhalation, the body rises and falls by about an inch.
"Up and down, squatting like a galloping horse!"
Done!
Zhao Zhilin's heart was beating unsatisfactorily, and his breathing was a little short. This kind of genius is simply rare in his life.
If he hadn't seen Qin Chuan's horse-step skills yesterday, he would have thought that this guy was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
Ten minutes later, Qin Chuan's calves began to tremble, his face turned red, his breathing was no longer steady, and he began to sweat on his forehead and temples.
In the dream, he had half a year of horse riding experience, and his thighs, calves, waist, and abdominal muscles had all been improved.
In reality, he practiced for two hours in the morning, and his physical fitness was different from that in his dream.
So within ten minutes he started panting.
After another five minutes, Qin Chuan felt his blood surge and his eyesight turned black.
"Okay, let's stop here." Zhao Zhilin grabbed Qin Chuan's shoulders and lifted him up: "Are you feeling a little dizzy?"
Qin Chuan nodded: "Yes."
"Follow me."
Zhao Zhilin took Qin Chuan to the rooftop of Zhulong City Walled City, pointed to the distance and said, "Look at the distance, are you still dizzy?"
The view in the distance was wide. Qin Chuan took a few glances and suddenly felt more comfortable.
"Ups and downs, squatting down like a galloping horse, the second part of the sentence is called lofty and empty, the top shape is open, and when people are riding horses, they have a wider field of vision, and seeing far away can relieve fatigue."
"The same goes for Zamabu."
"Next time you can walk on the roof of a building or in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of a hotel. The view will be broadened and people will not feel dizzy."
"However, in the early stages of practicing martial arts, it is best not to spend more than an hour on horseback stance every day. You can divide it into three groups, one group lasting fifteen minutes. If you do more, it will be useless and it will easily hurt your body."
