This frontier warfare also explains why the gaucho's martial reputation involved considerably more than personal duelling. He had to endure long rides, poor food, exposure, fatigue and uncertainty. He needed to know how to move through country where roads were rudimentary or nonexistent. He needed to recognize water, grazing and routes of travel. He needed to handle a horse after hours of riding and still be capable of fighting. In an irregular war, the ability to remain mobile and self-sufficient could be as important as the ability to strike an opponent.
There is an old saying in the martial arts world: "One who practices martial arts is half a doctor" (武林有句俗话“一个武半个医”). Those who train in martial arts often suffer injuries, so skilled practitioners also tend to learn bone-setting and massage techniques. In the ancient city of Cangzhou (沧州), there is a renowned martial arts master named Ma Zhendong (马振东), who, while training in martial arts, also mastered the advanced skills of bone-setting and massage. He teaches people martial arts for fitness while also providing free medical treatment.
Wu Qin Xi was created by Hua Tuo at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Hua Tuo’s contributions to physical fitness and health preservation were outstanding. Based on the theory of the "Inner Classic" (Nei Jing) of traditional Chinese medicine, the theory of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements, and the movement patterns of the body's organs, meridians, Qi, and blood, Hua Tuo observed the habits and postures of various birds and beasts. He selected the characteristics of the tiger (fierce), deer (agile), ape (intelligent), bear (steady), and bird (harmonious) to form the Wu Qin Xi routine. This is a health-preserving Qigong that combines internal and external cultivation, perfecting the ancient (导引) and Tu Na (吐纳) breathing exercises

The Jian Jing manual is not a collection of techniques, rather it is a method of controlling distance, line, rhythm, and force so that the staff becomes an extension of the whole body, and the body becomes a formation. One of the main problems with those that have not studied the staff, is that often wiggle around the staff without attention of the body, and in chinese martial arts, and in the Jian Jing, significant focus is on distance, stepping, as well as the lines of forces.
