The crab fights with both claws
raised together, supported by a solid body. This model develops skill in
zhuangzhang – the special technique of the MaGui style. On the external level,
it develops the wrists and upper arms. Someone weak in the upper arms, biceps, and wrists should do crab.
Crab circle-walking
Hold both arms in front of
the shoulders with the palms out. The arms are bent, but with an extending
power. Turn the body to face into the centre of the circle, keeping the arms in
the same position relative to the body. Do not put force into the arms, you want to wonder - is it the arms protecting the body or the body protecting the arms?
