The Spatial Reality Check Traditional Wing Chun dummies stand roughly five feet tall and require a three-by-three-foot clearance arc for proper footwork and arm extension. In a home office, this footprint frequently collides with desks, bookshelves, or doorways. Standard hardwood trunks weigh between 130 and 200 pounds. A standard residential floor joist may not support

The Myth of Static Balance In Wing Chun, balance is not about standing still. It is dynamic equilibrium. True balance is kinetic feedback management. When you strike a heavy bag, the target yields and moves away. Your brain registers zero resistance. You learn to push without anchoring. This creates a false sense of stability. Infographic:

The Physics of Feedback Material density dictates drill efficacy. A standard practice dummy features a ~9\” trunk diameter and weighs between 130–200 lbs. This mass creates the necessary inertia to resist your strikes. If you train on hollow PVC or lightweight softwood, the material flexes and vibrates. That springy rebound masks poor structure and encourages

The Biomechanics of Wu Sau on a Static Object The core challenge of dummy training lies in the difference between live resistance and static mass. A traditional dummy trunk typically measures around a 9-inch diameter and weighs between 130 and 200 pounds. This massive, stationary weight means there is zero natural give. When you throw
