Can this be learned or are some blessed.
I bought myself a titanium groin cup. Took it out of my gym bag and put it on, and “The boys” drew up immediately. Those suckers get cold in the winter!
you can learn that, or so im told 
hum… what if they got up in there and then got stuck… that would probably be bad right?

did you have a “to do” list when you signed up or you just throw this stuff out at random?

A little birdie asks me, randomly random.
Just curious…why would it be a blessing to be able to do this?

If you can pull “the Boys” up into your body, they can not be smashed by a kick or ripped off by a grab.

And that is why some kung fu clans practice this methodology:

[This clip - through Grand Master David Ip’s quick words - will also enlighten the “Olympic” weight training fraternity (together with their “decades” of “experience”…LOL) in this forum who believe that all kung fu uses, or should use, weight training to develop power.]

Some people consider this a type of Hei Gung training, not fighting.
There are two exercises I know of, small primordial circle, big primordial circle, are the translations, more or less. I’ve also heard them as “Big Sun Day” and “Little Sun Day.”
I’m told its closely associated with the ‘kundalini fire’ in yoga and other Indian stuff.
Inside, you clench up like you’re holding back a major wiz, and pinching off a turd, lots in common with pilates concepts on sinking the navel and splitting the abs.
Breathe in focusing on your dan tien - filling it. Then you rotate the energy up your spine, through your head and back down your front. In sync, fill your lungs from diaphragm then ribs, then shoulders, and reverse back down. Easy.
Repeat. The repeat part is the tricky bit.
I believe the withdrawing of the testicles is a byproduct of this exercise, which some martial artists capitalised upon for its obvious benefits. Pak Mei was one, allegedly.
Personally, I’m just not that far into Hei Gung…I’m only 51.
Gotta give props to Fa Xing
Cryptorchidism is the word of the day. We could even start calling the trolls here Cryptorchi****s.

I know a few guys that can do it, no biggie it seems of you train it correctly.
Never seen ANY of them pull it off in a fight though so not sure how practical it is.

Thanks Gene, and we can thank the fact that I have to learn about this stuff because I’m a Human Bio major.

the time used to develop this “skill” could be better spent on more effecient techniques.
seriously, some of the crap people spend thier time on is beyond my understanding.

in some styles that do this, it is a byproduct of the training. It is not something that is an isolated practice, so it is not detracting from time spent developing other skills.

Ever seen anyone do it in a fight?

Haven’t seen any naked kung fool fights or done any inspections.
