   Five weaknesses and seven injuries, wait and see later (they'll be gone)
   Train long, exercice long, tendons and bones strong
   Weakness injuries (from over-exertion) all because the internal organs
   (are) weak.
   Thrust out (straighten) the chest and twist the neck to take a good look
   to the rear.
   Hold the waist and hold up the chest, the body is upright
   Especially effective in curing internal injury

   (English version: Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming, "Ibid.")
