Chinese ancients named the Wushu arsenal the ``Eighteen Arms.`` but there are many more in use. Almost all fights are accompanied by weapon usage of one kind or another. The combination of fist fights and weapon usage allows for a fuller and more efficient application of Wushu skills while sh-arpening the insight of combat and control and enriching the program of Wushu exercise.

Wushu masters have systematically summed up the con-tradictions of offence and defence and established a set of theories and techniques on combat.
4. The movement of the human body is only the external display of Wushu.

Coordination and cooperation are called for with each and every movement of the hand. eye. body. foot and form of movement. Wushu stresses that the mind directs the circulation of air flow within the body and that the inner circulation of air generates the external strength. so demonstrating the combination of external and internal forces. Cultivating air flows inse the body in order to improve the basic structures inse the body is an important purpose of Wushu exercises .

Human feelings and abilities are clearly demonstrated through the rhythmic movements of opening and closing. and the emotions excited in doing exercises.
