THE 1,000 REPS. PROGRAM
PROPER FORM TRAINING FOR MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS

The following example is based on teaching a fighting or exercise form 50 steps in length at a rate of 5 new steps per week. Obviously, this is an illustration only, but it does closely parallel the pace at which most new forms would be taught at Green Dragon Kung-Fu, and the principle can easily be applied regardless of how many steps are taught per session or how much time elapses between the offering of new steps.

Week #1 First 5 steps Do 500 reps.	Week #2 Steps 6-10 Do 250 reps Steps 1-5 Do 250 reps.	Week #3 Steps 11-15 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-10 Do 250 reps.	Week #4 Steps 16-20 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-15 Do 250 reps.	Week #5 Steps 21-25 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-20 Do 250 reps.	Week #6 Steps 22-30 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-25 Do 250 reps.
	Week #7 Steps 31-35 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-30 Do 250 reps.	Week #8 Steps 36-40 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-35 Do 250 reps.	Week #9 Steps 41-45 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-40 Do 250 reps.	Week #10 Steps 46-50 Do 250 reps. Steps 1-45 Do 250 reps.
	Week #11 ENTIRE FORM 250 reps.	Week #12 ENTIRE FORM 250 reps.	Week #13 ENTIRE FORM 250 reps.	Week #14 ENTIRE FORM 250 reps.

TO NOTE:
1. During actual instructional period (10 weeks), no less than 500 reps. Per week are spent on the form to be broken down as indicated. This averages only 71 reps. per day. You should work much harder!
2. The division of 250/250 gives as much attention to the brand new steps as is given to the combined total of all steps previously taught. You need extra work on that portion which is new.
3. The instructional period of 2.5 months after which doing only 250 reps. weekly (only 50% of what you had been doing!) will give you 1,000 reps. through the COMPLETED form in only on month. *Many Chinese systems believe that the benefits (especially those which are REFLEXIVE) do not begin to go into the body until at least this 1,000 reps. on each of their forms in a lifetime!!
4. At Week #14 you will have: 3,750 reps. in on the first 5 steps!! 3,250 reps. in on Steps 6-10. 3,000 reps. in on steps 11-15. 2,750 in on Steps 16-20. 2,500 reps. in on steps 21-25. 2,250 in on Steps 26-30. 2,000 reps. in on Steps 31-35. 1,750 reps. in on Steps 36-40. 1,500 reps. in on Steps 41-45, and 1,250 reps. in on the final teaching, steps 45-50!!
a. As a result of less work coming at the end portion, spend a disproportionate amount of work on the last half of the form when training after the 14th week.

THIS IS PROPER FORM TRAINING!! IF YOU'RE NOT DOING AT LEAST THIS MUCH WORK, YOU KNOW WHY YOU HAVEN'T ACHIEVED THE RESULTS YOU'D LIKE. START YOUR NEXT PIECE OF NEW MATERIAL WITH THIS TYPE OF COMMITMENT TO TRAINING IN MIND - YOU'LL SEE THE DIFFERENCE!

5. It goes without saying that you can't 'retrain' on all of your old material using this system-you don't have enough hours in the day. USE THIS SYSTEM ON EACH FIGHTING/EXERCISE FORM AS YOU ACQUIRE IT!
