5.0 out of 5 stars Improve your life, 27 Jun 2007
Thats all you can say about this book as its exactly what it does, I have had so many problems with my legs and back and after spending thousands of pounds on chiropractors, physio's and osteopaths I finally found help with an expert in Tui Na that got me to do the Wu Chi exercises in this book.

After a few weeks of following Kam Chuen Lam instructions I had already improved my mental and physical state 10 fold.

My breathing is so much better also, I cant explain how amazing things are for me now and a lot of it came through this book.

You can help fix your body no matter how tangled and exercise without having to do press ups, squat thrusts or over exertion.

If you have back trouble as I did I highly recommend it as my 3 slipped discs have totally repaired, although I do recommend you see a Tui Na specialist which was the main reason im back to normal.

Open your mind to new things and try it.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent sequal to "Way of Energy", 21 Mar 2008
By Robert (London) - See all my reviews
Any Tai Chi practitioner will get excellent benefit out of daily practice of the Zhang Zuan exercises described in "The Way of Energy". I found serious benefit in my 30's. The benefits were not initially obvious, but after a few months work, had transformed my Tai Chi form.

Having not trained seriously for several years, in my mid 40's, I recently restarted my Zhang Zuan practice as part of a fitness drive. The benefits are begining after a couple of months - improved posture; better breathing; feeling stronger; helped me start running again; enjoying the relaxing / meditative aspect of the practice.

This book takes the practice further, and describes the practice more in the context of the Yiquan martial art it is central to. There is surprisingly little overlap with "Way of Energy". It gives a stronger theoretical background to the practice. It has extended the range of positions I am practicing, and gives a wider appreciation of how to develop my practice over time.

Criticisms??? The movement practices are not that clear from the book. I will have to buy the DVD to ensure I can practice these correctly. A little more help on how to develop a training session might help. (There is some guidance, but it is limited.) Also, bear in mind the injunction that an ounce of practice is worth a pound of theory. The book will only do its job if you commit to daily practice (10 minutes is enough initially.)

Also look at "Opening the Energy Gates of Your Body" for another approach to standing Chi Kung. The Amazon.com website has additional reviews.
