Training Energy Flow Through Ki-Mu - The Principle of Natural Body Movement - Part 2.

■ Based on the explanation from Part 1, let's explore the principle of natural body movement through breathing, explained in terms of the antagonist, agonist, and synergist muscles.

♤♤♤

The principle of the body moving naturally through breathing can be explained by connecting it to the concepts of antagonist, agonist, and synergist muscles.

During breathing practice, the natural movement of the body is primarily influenced by the interaction and balanced cooperation of these muscles.

1. The Role of Muscles in Breathing:

○ Agonist: The agonist is the muscle primarily responsible for a specific movement. During natural movement induced by breathing, this muscle plays a leading role. For example, during deep breathing, the diaphragm, which expands the chest cavity, acts as the agonist.

○ Antagonist: The antagonist muscle works in opposition to the agonist to maintain balance. When the diaphragm expands, the antagonist muscles in the chest and abdomen gently relax, allowing the body to maintain balance.

○ Synergist: Synergist muscles assist the agonist by smoothing out movement and providing stability. These muscles help support the natural movements that occur with breathing, assisting with subtle body movements that happen during the process.

2. The Principle of Natural Movement:

As breathing deepens, the muscles automatically cooperate to produce natural movement. While the agonist leads a specific motion, the antagonist relaxes rather than resisting, and the synergist aids in making the movement smoother.

With the balance of force maintained in this process, it can feel as though the body is moving on its own. Ultimately, the movement that occurs through breathing results from the harmonious interaction between muscles, allowing for a state of effortless and natural movement.

No matter how well we explain or understand this phenomenon, there will always be limitations.
However, when we come to realize that "Nature has consciousness and is alive," we can transcend many of these explanations and experience the phenomenon firsthand.
아무리 이 현상을 잘 설명하거나 이해하더라도, 한계가 있을 수밖에 없다. 하지만 "자연이 의식을 가지고 있으며, 살아있다"는 것을 알아차리고, 깨닫게 되면, 많은 설명을 초월하여 그러한 현상을 직접 경험하고, 각자 능력과 노력에 따라 스스로의 삶을
여유롭고 풍요롭게 만들수 있게 된다. 즉 각자의 더나은 무술 수련과 더 나은 삶을 영위할 수 있다는 말이다.
