The most effective kung fu training techniques are usually the most basic. For many centuries at h Shaolin monastery kung fu was taught in the same way to its many students. The basics have remained focus on Flexibility, stamina , strength and endurance.
This involved many exercises that focused on conditioning your body during many grueling drills.
I remember when I first started out as a green martial artist I was paired with a partner who was much more advanced. The first drill was to block against a round punch they would block and then follow up. At the time my weak puny arms would deliver the punch , only to have my partners strong conditioned arms block and follow up.

The body must first learn to perform the proper techniques at an extended range of motion comfortably and without excessive effort and strain. Flexibility, focus, and strength are the keys to graceful power needed for gaining skill in the martial arts
If you wish to make extremely rapid progress you must have a well designed martial arts stretching routine. The most effective programs consist of light morning stretching workouts, light evening stretching workouts, and intense main workouts. This may seem to be excessive, but staying with an aggressive martial arts stretching and workout program such as this will improve your flexibility in less than half the time of an easier regimen. When your flexibility has improved sufficiently, your workout regimen will become less time consuming.
