一、通背拳概說 General Introduction of Back-through Quan
通背拳，武術拳種之一，因流傳區域較廣，故流派分支較多，就其拳稱而言，“背”字有用手臂的“臂”的，也有用脊背的“背”的。盡管拳的稱謂有所不同，演練風格也有一定差異，但在拳理和曆史淵源上基本是一致的，特別是在技術上都充分體現了腰背發力貫於肢體的特點，因此，1982年出版的《中國大百科全書·體育卷》中把通背拳的“背”字定寫為脊背的“背”字。
Back-through Quan, one genre of Wushu boxing, has got more genres and branches because of its relatively wide-spread practice.In terms of its appellation, someone replaces “arm” instead of “back”, so it is also called “Arm Boxing”.Although the appellation of boxing and their practicing styles are different, the boxing theory and historical origins are largely the same.Especially from the skill, it fully embodies the characteristic of strength generated from back and waist to the body and limbs.In the“Sports Volume of Encyclopedia of China”published in 1982, it was decided that the Chinese character “back” in the term “Back-through Quan” means “the back of a human body”.
