Tim's Discussion Board: Xing Yi Quan: Hand Numbness during San Ti Shi

I wasn't sure if it was normal to have numb hands after long periods of standing in San Ti Shi. Does this mean that I am holding the posture incorrecty? Thanks.

Henanluoshan;
I had this problem in Tim's normal Xing Yi classes. Tim taught a special course in Xing Yi mind boxing years ago. My hands had gone numb, my vision played tricks on me, etc. If I remember correctly,I think Tim said it was par for the course in IMA.
I think he said that he would do this for hours in China. We normal westerners couldn't handle it with the amount of time we spend on IMA a week.
