I learned the technique of chopping stones in half with the hand in 8th grade summer school where I took Kyokushin Karate from Sensei Don Buck. The trick (which you will see in the video) is to lift the brick or stone slightly before smacking it. Doesn't take much training, it's more timing than having a tough hand. That being said, the hand toughening techniques shown in the video will develop callouses, which will make one's hands far more dangerous.
Exactly! Lifting the brick/stone and dropping it actually creates the break. Must have been great learning from Don Buck. There's a guy with powerful hands.
@@terrancejohnson5605 of course not, therein is the system and wisdom. There is self massage along with external liniment and herbs for internal repair. When you get to earth element (stone, brick) very much needed.
@@IronFistKempo you know this same sifu jiang broke solid granite? Nevermind brick or river rock. Even a video breaking a brick with just an index finger no trick there my friend.
Hand conditioning should NOT create calluses, it should aid the density of the bone and the strength of the tendons. neither of which benefit from calluses. Conditioning is a complete system of exercises, massage, and medicine. it is not simply thumping stuff to cause scaring. That can cause long term damage.
THIS IS JUST BEAUTIFUL. I study Goju-ryu Karate but I also try to study as much I can from what is being said in these videos. It would be a dream to join the HOU QUAN MEN school and be taught by this great master.
Not to take away anything from the GM, but as a martial artist of 37 years, I have to point out that while he may be very skilled and very powerful, the rock-breaking demo is deceptive. Breaking a rock against another rock, especially when holding it above the other rock, is not as difficult as one might think. My grandmaster told us about this type of demo decades ago. He said it is a trick. As a demonstration of real power, he should post a video demonstrating a knife-hand strike to the rock while holding it in the other hand so it doesn't break with the aid of another rock. This would be more convincing. Peace... Train well.
Don't know how this is a trick cause I don't see much magicians doing it ,I mean it's a combination of science and training ,the science part is very simple to understand but the training part is very real.
@KHABIB ** TIME my friend if you have never danced professionally then does this mean that you cannot dance if a plumber does not have a certificate from a university does this make his skill any less.
@@jsieunarine While in college, me and my friend used to perform this trick for our girlfriends to show how tough we are ))) - just a bit less than Bruce Lee )) Another trick with an "inner power chi" is to take a bottle of cola and knock out the bottom by just one palm punch. It's easy, in fact: just open the bottle, drink a couple of sips and than sharply slap the neck of the bottle with your palm. Water hammer effect is at your service )))
Try laying carpet for 20 yrs I have knees the size of a coconut, knuckles that a gorilla would be proud of and one big bicept from lifting so many beers. Funny thing is I'm 40 now and I still surf 3hours like I did when I was 15. Conditioning is key. Use it or you loose it!!
@@juleslongdin-prisk4232 using my spare time to meditate between world tyranny got myself up to 20 pull up reps 3 times daily. Physical health and mental health is at its peak. No video I'm a genuine Ozzy fighting for my god given rights. I hope you are well be strong Human spirit!!
It shows that a lot of the haters who question the fighting abilities don’t really know Jiang Yu Shan ! In that clip minute 7.25 you can make your opinions! 2007 he lost once and after that he won 2015 the world championship in lei tai . 2016 he won the MMA KARATE championship in TOKYO at age 45 ! In the 80 kg finals he was facing the Ukrainian KUDO KARATE CHAMPION Sergey Gorodivsky
Haters going to hate because they can’t comprehend and can’t accept the success of somebody else. I researched this guy and he’s legit but he’s very dedicated.
All these ancient martial arts are good for movies....real fighting MMA has been proven to b superior to all of them...the ufc is where u see who can fight,or who just playing drunken master 🤣
@@TheBushido626 I think you mean "pretty sure the short ones were harder to break, the long one is much longer so the center is weaker" It's not the size, but the shape.
Thank you for the Video & May the Master have a long life to train others! I used these methods while in Prison in the USA on the floors and walls of the concrete cell.
That's awesome. I always said if I were in prison I would do that too. Meditation, training, reading, no better way to pass your time. You came out stronger.
Same, I punch brick walls and back slap them and punch cast iron machines at work. It would be handy in prison to toughen up, become stronger and defensive and pass time and good learning without electric devices and distractions.
In his prime my Sensei was a breaking champion. He was always pounding his fists into sand bags, makiwara and telephone poles. He's in his 60s now and doesn't have arthritis. I fought for over 20 years, I'm only 41 and I have arthritis in my left hand. I only dabbled in makiwara training. I suppose it's never too late as long as I start slowly.
@@lucasgrey9794 really? I had no idea. I think for me though it was the chronic injuries to my hands and feet . Kickboxing elbows and punching foreheads hurts. But maybe if I didn't eat any of that stuff I would have been better off as far as arthritis goes. Health wise for sure.
@@casz7098 Look up Weston Price on pdfdrive. He did a research all over the world in the early 20th Century on primitive populations and found that toothache and arthritis started to become prominent when these primitives adopted sugar, wheat flour and vegetable oils as main parts of their diets.
@@Jazzman-bj9fq I agree but I know enough that proper type and application of herbal medicine is essential and mandatory . Otherwise you will get bad complications
@@tidemover Yes, it covers almost every aspect of the conditioning of the mind and body. It's not as simple as ppl think where they just get some wood and stones and hit them for a few weeks or months.
This dude reminds of a villain from a Kung -fu movie....you know the type of villain thats very calm and cool but very deadly and has a sort of swag in his step.
Or having nothing better to do than writing these comments. That's like watching a boxer punching the heavy bag and saying "imagine having nothing better to do with your life than punching a bag all day". Apparently you really needed to write something
It is true these forms have A LOT of flaws. But then again it comes down to the instructor. My Sifu has always taught us that we cannot rely on just one style or method. You can pick pieces out and form them with others to apply the best defense you can. The real problem is who has the time anymore to study 6+ styles 🤷♂️
I believe Grand Master Jiang Yu Shan was also helped by mother nature who gave him a very wide arm span compared to his body. Grand Master Jiang Yu Shan has put the talents that nature has given him to good use.
I assume it's a lot about how he had grown up, he isn't the first generation in his family to train in kung fu so he's very likely to have trained hardening and strengthening his arms and hands in those techniques which is why his arms are big and strong. All in my opinion and perspective.
Kung fu is centered around kill and maiming moves than trading punches. MMA is more about knockouts and submissions. You wouldn't establish rules on the battlefield. One is not better than the other.
The stone breaking technique is actually a trick. The hand holding the stone raises the stone, so that when the striking hand hits the stone it is in the air and not on the ground, carrying it or pushing it to collide with the stone on the ground which actually is what causes the fracture. Also the breaking of the little stones given to the "student" actually requires much more effort to break than the bigger stones. No belittling of the trainer, his technique or fighting skill, just stone breaking is clearly a trick.

Its not just the years. Many artists say that they have +10yrs in the arts. Despite them sitting on their Couches, watching TV for most of that time. Its the Quality, Duration, Frequency, and Intensity of the work, that largely dictates development speed the most. For example... I used to train over 4hrs a day, 7 days a week, and at an intensity level that pushed myself to my complete limits and breaking points. At about the 3yr mark.. I was virtually untouchable to the local sport artists. Others whom have decades more time in the same art that I studied... would still get destroyed by these same fighters. Adding to this... there is a huge difference between Knowing, Doing, and Full Mastery. Only one of those, is reliable and repeatable, in a real situation.
Kung fu techniques used during a life or death situation are all targeting the groin, eyes, and throat. These strikes are illegal in mma because it too damaging, which is why they’re the most effective. You can’t really spar with these techniques. Therefore you will never see it during sparring or mma. It’s illegal. You just train the techniques and your muscle memory will bring them out when your life is in danger.
@@saigonproducer Why does it (sparring) have to include lethal techniques. I'm pretty sure there are Kung Fu techniques that aren't lethal to be used in sparring. I don't care about MMA. What I care about is actual combat training this whole cooperative training via routines instead of practicing on a resisting opponent. The main issue is fight experience. Sure you could train for 30-60 years and never spar. But when it happens you regress back into a beginner due to never being put under pressure. Man, I got some relatives that train at Shaolin, and you know what? They spar. I've never seen them spar, only talked to them via WeChat. Lethal or not, sparring is a very important factor for a martial artist's growth and progression. You don't need to use lethal attacks on a person in sparring. And not everything needs to be related to MMA. Muay Boran has a ton of lethal attacks and they spar. And of course they don't use the very lethal attacks to kill one another.
@@vincentlee7359 you are misunderstanding me. I didn’t say sparring is useless. I’m saying you won’t see the most violent techniques in sparring which is what real kf practitioners focus most on. And most kf schools don’t even teach them, so in my opinion, those are useless fake kf schools. If you were to see kf sparring without the techniques I spoke about, it’ll just look like mma sparring. It’s all just punches and kicks. Real kf is striking the eyes, throat, and groin because that’s what was done during war when ppl are trying to kill you.
@@saigonproducer You realize not every Kung Fu technique has to be lethal? The more you're defending this the more you sound like those Akido guys who defend tooth and nail about no need to spar for Akido because the techniques are too lethal or dangerous to use in sparring. But when the chance pops up to use such techniques, they flop and get beat.
@@vincentlee7359 lol I’m not saying sparring is useless. Of course sparring is mandatory. I’m saying you won’t see the core of kf in sparring. It’s going to look like mma sparring. A kf kick is a Muay thai kick. It’s all the same shit.
I wish I hadn't stopped Iron Palm training 25 years ago, but work and living arrangements with no place to practice noise complaints, cop harassment when looking for a place where no one would be disturbed eventually led me to quit. Tried to return to it 15 years ago and became allergic to the hand medicine . I've just returned to 3x/day light training a few weeks ago without the Jit medicine . I honestly don't think the medicine is required , you just have let bruising fully heal , the worst is when you break a large vessel (backfist).
Instead of Dit Da Jow...Im an iron palm practitioner....run hands under barely can handle hot water then plunge into very cold water...temper hands...do this before practice and then after.... I slap 50 times per day each hand....not sure about noise....do on a hard surface...and steel plate......or use a bag full of pebbles...quieter.
I studied these techniques in Taiwan nearly 50 years ago. What is missing, intentionally no doubt, is the role of Chinese herbal medicine in making such punishing regimes possible and effective.
I guess you missed time marker :26 where he applies Jow.. and that bottle is seen sitting there for many of the filming sequences. No legit Iron Palm / Kung Fu teacher.. ignores Dit Da Jow lineament. My teachers Always had a bottle that was shared with the entire class.
I saw a video of you 13 yrs ago teaching looking much lighter less muscalar wing chun with monkey fist....and fast forward to present and WOW you added a ton of muscle as you got older plus your a vegetarian! true shaolin warrior! request to make a video HOW you this? please don't say its ALL in the courses...
All your videos very good indeed, especially for those not in the knowing. I do southern steelwire mantis many of my training methods very similar. Peace & great health to you.
how often do you participate in full or near full contact sparring? i trained for years in a combination of karate and TKD. sparring was as much a part of training as learning how.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 well i never done anything other than full contact, but always friendly sparring with felliw members of my club, ive tested myself many times against other styles but these days only with my students so im holding back so i can keep my students ,
Im 47 years nxt birthday .i will add ive had a run of 23years sparring quite a few street fights from idiots starting it , ive always walked home with other people's blood on my clothing..
@@kungfuwaysteelwiremantissi380 my sparring was also with fellow practitioners. there were a few rules involved so we never got seriously injured. for example, no fist strikes to the face. slaps were ok though.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 yes flat fist anywhere but to the face open hands only, kicks anywhere but head or groin, locks & throwing allowed all students fully conditioned with Qigong, so everyone ready for action. Minimum of 2 hard years before sparring.
The reason the stone breaks is because it's on top of another stone. Try placing it on a softer surface and try breaking it. Otherwise it's a parlor game or a circus act.
Definitely incredible, and I'm sure he has tremendous hands and striking power from these exercises. But... I wonder how much damage the hands could get like this before devastating arthritis sets in? I am not in the know as far as if there is some method that these Masters used to avoid it? I am definitely all ears.
@@organika53321 is that some sort of lame attempt at a troll? It's ok to ask questions knowing that trauma is a factor in developing arthritis. Or is that too dumb of a question for your high intellect? Peace be with you.
chigung has been proven verifiably false. remember, "chi" translates as "breath". pretty much every martial arts known teaches proper breathing. it's more about focus and efficient use of oxygen than it is about "using the force". there is science behind the "hardening" or "conditioning" that he is doing. in order to "harden" your hands, you must injure them a bit so that the boney growths reinforce what was already there. later in life, it's not uncommon for this conditioning to turn into arthritis. i went through years of conditioning my hands, feet, shins, forearms, elbows and knees. now i'm 52 years old and have arthritis pretty much throughout my body, especially where the conditioning was focused. so when you say "chigung" you are just spouting superstitious nonsense.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 from reading dr yang jwing ming, he says that common reference to Qi usually means nerve force unless other wise specified (blood Qi, heart Qi, etc.) In this context I would say that qigong increase bodily circulations and increases nervous activity. What is the extent to what our nervous system is capable of in terms of influencing electro magnetism is beyond me, but for most of us this is a decent way to center, massage bodily tissues and direct nerve force.
@@paulbarclay4114 there is a difference between cynic and skeptic. i do not believe that human conduct is wholly motivated by self interest. as for being a crybaby, that was when i was a "baby". this is not to say i "don't cry" because i love a good tear jerker as much as the next guy. maybe even more so, since most guys were taught that it is weakness to cry. i'd like to hear about your experience at the end of the movie "the notebook". i almost bawled my eyes out, so to speak. lol
Being a Mason for 36 years will have the same affect we have unbelievable hand strength and forearm strength if taught some martial arts I would be very dangerous lol
@@crouchingwombathiddenquoll5641 I just started training judo last week at 31 years old and boy am I sore but it's all I've been thinking about.. like you said, you just gotta do it!
@@forrestthroughdatrees go for it bro. I'm sure that's great mental and physical exercise. Keeping up with the flow and momentum of the staff is probably a meditative experience
I much rather spend the time it take to condition my hands to that degree on training my accuracy in hitting the EYE. I only condition my hands like that to avoid injuring in the event that I miss the Eye. This from a COBRA's perspective.
Hallo Hisham, kannst du mir bitte erklären wie man als Anfänger die Abhärte Technik für Hände und Arme übt und was am besten dafür geeignet ist ? Vielen Lieben dank ❤️
At the end he is body hardening by squeezing every muscle he has, this makes it harder for opponents to tell when you're breathing, releases serotonin, and builds robust fighting style.
sounds like bullshit and extreme waste of energy, he conditions his bones more, repeated light damage makes micro cracks in the bone which then recover much stronger.

Hi.. Do you have a healing doctor??
How many times do you have to hit your hands on that stone and tile ? I want to make my fists tough too...
which medicinal oil do you use ?
Best demonstration of iron palm I’ve seen since Budo in the seventies.
Conditioning is so important, thank you for sharing your knowledge ;)
I need to do this.
Can you upload some sparring videos? I never really seen kung fu sparring and interested to see what it looks like!!
Kung fu techniques used during a life or death situation are all targeting the groin, eyes, and throat. These strikes are illegal in mma because it too damaging, which is why they’re the most effective.
You can’t really spar with these techniques. Therefore you will never see it during sparring or mma. It’s illegal. You just train the techniques and your muscle memory will bring them out when your life is in danger.
@@saigonproducer Why does it (sparring) have to include lethal techniques. I'm pretty sure there are Kung Fu techniques that aren't lethal to be used in sparring.
I don't care about MMA. What I care about is actual combat training this whole cooperative training via routines instead of practicing on a resisting opponent.
The main issue is fight experience. Sure you could train for 30-60 years and never spar. But when it happens you regress back into a beginner due to never being put under pressure.
Man, I got some relatives that train at Shaolin, and you know what? They spar. I've never seen them spar, only talked to them via WeChat.
Lethal or not, sparring is a very important factor for a martial artist's growth and progression. You don't need to use lethal attacks on a person in sparring. And not everything needs to be related to MMA. Muay Boran has a ton of lethal attacks and they spar. And of course they don't use the very lethal attacks to kill one another.
@@vincentlee7359 you are misunderstanding me. I didn’t say sparring is useless. I’m saying you won’t see the most violent techniques in sparring which is what real kf practitioners focus most on. And most kf schools don’t even teach them, so in my opinion, those are useless fake kf schools.
If you were to see kf sparring without the techniques I spoke about, it’ll just look like mma sparring. It’s all just punches and kicks. Real kf is striking the eyes, throat, and groin because that’s what was done during war when ppl are trying to kill you.
@@saigonproducer You realize not every Kung Fu technique has to be lethal? The more you're defending this the more you sound like those Akido guys who defend tooth and nail about no need to spar for Akido because the techniques are too lethal or dangerous to use in sparring. But when the chance pops up to use such techniques, they flop and get beat.
@@vincentlee7359 lol I’m not saying sparring is useless. Of course sparring is mandatory. I’m saying you won’t see the core of kf in sparring. It’s going to look like mma sparring. A kf kick is a Muay thai kick. It’s all the same shit.
when pain resistance and stupidity come together...
I wish I hadn't stopped Iron Palm training 25 years ago, but work and living arrangements with no place to practice noise complaints, cop harassment when looking for a place where no one would be disturbed eventually led me to quit. Tried to return to it 15 years ago and became allergic to the hand medicine . I've just returned to 3x/day light training a few weeks ago without the Jit medicine . I honestly don't think the medicine is required , you just have let bruising fully heal , the worst is when you break a large vessel (backfist).
Instead of Dit Da Jow...Im an iron palm practitioner....run hands under barely can handle hot water then plunge into very cold water...temper hands...do this before practice and then after.... I slap 50 times per day each hand....not sure about noise....do on a hard surface...and steel plate......or use a bag full of pebbles...quieter.
Where's this training center at?
wife: Dear lunch id ready. Husband: give me few more minutes
I studied these techniques in Taiwan nearly 50 years ago. What is missing, intentionally no doubt, is the role of Chinese herbal medicine in making such punishing regimes possible and effective.
any that you know and can share?
I guess you missed time marker :26 where he applies Jow.. and that bottle is seen sitting there for many of the filming sequences. No legit Iron Palm / Kung Fu teacher.. ignores Dit Da Jow lineament. My teachers Always had a bottle that was shared with the entire class.
How many reps do you do to get a desired result?
Very good, thankyou for the tips.
I saw a video of you 13 yrs ago teaching looking much lighter less muscalar wing chun with monkey fist....and fast forward to present and WOW you added a ton of muscle as you got older plus your a vegetarian! true shaolin warrior! request to make a video HOW you this? please don't say its ALL in the courses...
Some but not all secrets are revealed in the free 54 lessons at WarriorNeigong.com/notes
All your videos very good indeed, especially for those not in the knowing. I do southern steelwire mantis many of my training methods very similar. Peace & great health to you.
how often do you participate in full or near full contact sparring? i trained for years in a combination of karate and TKD. sparring was as much a part of training as learning how.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 well i never done anything other than full contact, but always friendly sparring with felliw members of my club, ive tested myself many times against other styles but these days only with my students so im holding back so i can keep my students ,
Im 47 years nxt birthday .i will add ive had a run of 23years sparring quite a few street fights from idiots starting it , ive always walked home with other people's blood on my clothing..
@@kungfuwaysteelwiremantissi380 my sparring was also with fellow practitioners. there were a few rules involved so we never got seriously injured. for example, no fist strikes to the face. slaps were ok though.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 yes flat fist anywhere but to the face open hands only, kicks anywhere but head or groin, locks & throwing allowed all students fully conditioned with Qigong, so everyone ready for action. Minimum of 2 hard years before sparring.
The reason the stone breaks is because it's on top of another stone. Try placing it on a softer surface and try breaking it. Otherwise it's a parlor game or a circus act.
What kind of oil was that on the hands to prepare for the bone conditioning?
Jow

Hi
Can you please tell me
That , what is the scientific-secret behind 20yrs consistent training benefits ?
......und er war in Deutschland beim Militär? Vor ihm hatte dort sicher jeder enormen Respekt!!! Ein Supertyp!!!
I'd love to have a Sifu like him. His students are fortunate to have such dedicated teacher.
I like it..
But in in construction so I also do this to my hands daily.
LOVE this man. He's full of wisdom. Greetings from Spain.
I prefer internal hardening.
Definitely incredible, and I'm sure he has tremendous hands and striking power from these exercises. But... I wonder how much damage the hands could get like this before devastating arthritis sets in? I am not in the know as far as if there is some method that these Masters used to avoid it? I am definitely all ears.
I'd tell you, if you had a brain that is
@@organika53321 is that some sort of lame attempt at a troll? It's ok to ask questions knowing that trauma is a factor in developing arthritis. Or is that too dumb of a question for your high intellect? Peace be with you.
@@danlozza your inability to have a sense of humor proves my former point that you indeed still do not have a brain to call your own..
@@organika53321 big ego weirdo
@@Liam-ke2hv a simple joke escalates due to you not having the brains to understand it point made
Do you do any chigung focusing on the hands before or after iron hand training?
Probably both.
chigung has been proven verifiably false. remember, "chi" translates as "breath". pretty much every martial arts known teaches proper breathing. it's more about focus and efficient use of oxygen than it is about "using the force". there is science behind the "hardening" or "conditioning" that he is doing. in order to "harden" your hands, you must injure them a bit so that the boney growths reinforce what was already there. later in life, it's not uncommon for this conditioning to turn into arthritis. i went through years of conditioning my hands, feet, shins, forearms, elbows and knees. now i'm 52 years old and have arthritis pretty much throughout my body, especially where the conditioning was focused.
so when you say "chigung" you are just spouting superstitious nonsense.
@@lonnierh0dgejr41 from reading dr yang jwing ming, he says that common reference to Qi usually means nerve force unless other wise specified (blood Qi, heart Qi, etc.) In this context I would say that qigong increase bodily circulations and increases nervous activity. What is the extent to what our nervous system is capable of in terms of influencing electro magnetism is beyond me, but for most of us this is a decent way to center, massage bodily tissues and direct nerve force.
@@Awakenedmind333 seems like a decent explanation. it boils down to efficient use of oxygen though.
@@paulbarclay4114 there is a difference between cynic and skeptic. i do not believe that human conduct is wholly motivated by self interest. as for being a crybaby, that was when i was a "baby". this is not to say i "don't cry" because i love a good tear jerker as much as the next guy. maybe even more so, since most guys were taught that it is weakness to cry. i'd like to hear about your experience at the end of the movie "the notebook". i almost bawled my eyes out, so to speak. lol
is this good for osteoporosis ? :)
The blonde homie showed lots of fear and anxiety you can see his hesitation
Excellent thank you 👍
I seen these kung fu matches go up against a mix martial artist or boxer and it did not end well.
No shit ! A grappler would eat him for breakfast
3 to 4 minute mark, he is afraid of hitting his pinky it seems
Being a Mason for 36 years will have the same affect we have unbelievable hand strength and forearm strength if taught some martial arts I would be very dangerous lol
Been a marble mason for 20 years,I can squeeze the Schlitz outta somebody.

The algorithm really wants me to watch this.
This I didn’t mind, no politics. And a crazy French guy, what’s not to like?!
I’d love to just go somewhere, some mountain or something where I stay for a year just being trained.
Join a local boxing / judo etc club.
Just gotta get up and do it, try it at home first, but as in the Nike advert “Just do it…”

@@forrestthroughdatrees go for it bro. I'm sure that's great mental and physical exercise. Keeping up with the flow and momentum of the staff is probably a meditative experience

very interesting man.
Here fr they Respekt the Monkey Style thank you for the upload
Nice video Mr.❤️😇
Real Gongfu. High skill level. Much respect.
This is awesome. Much respect! 🙏
What hes is applying oil name
Grandmaster requirements has changed alot.
I much rather spend the time it take to condition my hands to that degree on training my accuracy in hitting the EYE. I only condition my hands like that to avoid injuring in the event that I miss the Eye. This from a COBRA's perspective.
@@ToddTommow The forbidden technique
Hallo Hisham,
kannst du mir bitte erklären wie man als Anfänger die Abhärte Technik für Hände und Arme übt und was am besten dafür geeignet ist ? Vielen Lieben dank ❤️
At the end he is body hardening by squeezing every muscle he has, this makes it harder for opponents to tell when you're breathing, releases serotonin, and builds robust fighting style.
sounds like bullshit and extreme waste of energy, he conditions his bones more, repeated light damage makes micro cracks in the bone which then recover much stronger.
where do you guys come up with this bullshit? and to post it as a comment like you know wtf you're talking about. "releases serotonin" LMAO
