Oww!!! my bong sau hurts!

Roy:
"Try it with a slight tilt upwards, I bet you that you will find it to feel much stronger. In fact ask someone to force harder on your bong while spine is perpendicular, and you may find the structure breaks down easier than with the tilt.

In fact if you keep the spine erect, bringing the bong elbow to your shoulder level, then tilt the whole structure like a statue, till your center (solar plexus) points upward at the 45 degree angle, you will find that the elbow will be at the ear level."

Hi Roy: Words dont always capture the real motion.
I have no problems with my bong sao. I dont tilt my spine and my bong sao structure does not break down easily. And when I complete the bong sao in
practice, the elbow is slightly higher than the elbow level. We probably are doing things a little differently- but that's OK. Thanks for sharing your views.

Perhaps when we meet, I can show you what I am referring to. However, it is still worth a try as I have done.
