All actions of "single whip" use one word. Explain that when doing the "single whip" action, your arms must be stretched back and forth like a straight whip. The straight whip is naturally soft and firm, and the beat is crisp. In attack and defense, the "single whip" style is the use of attacking and defending, constantly eliminating and hitting. If the opponent hits me head-on with his left hand, I will hook my hand with my right hand (pinch hook) and hang my hand on the right back side. At the same time, I will insert my left leg into each other's crotch (or step on each other's front foot) and hit him in the chest with my left hand. The left and right sides will be consistent, and the opponent will fall down after being hit (Figure 5- 10). Another way to use it is to hang the opponent's hand and immediately hit the opponent's jaw with the back of his hand and wrist (Figure 5- 1 1).
