LY guys have big dwarf feet and stocky shoulders even though the basics all looks like sub jee. the sifu's of the two styles have diff features

    do they do some type of tendon work around thee knees so the soles of their feet swell up like some weird dragon foot bridge skill? lol or is it the lung ying sifus all come from the same area known for bigfoot. lame pun I know..

    lol one of our Lung Ying guys is a Bak Mei Sifu now and he is huge but he bodybuilds and is tall, my sifu is not that tall but I notice his fist is huge, lol like his neck is thick but he looks like an Engineer like what he went to school for I think. I think all the pulling moves with tiger claw grip flexing is similar to doing dead lifts like your neck and hand bones become thicker from the pulling and rotating forces...adding floating and sinking to the bak mei staff form adds to this thickness of grip like heavy reps of lightweight dead lifts, arm curls and bent over rows.
