What is binding?

Xu's binding is a whole body binding method, and all parts of the body should be tied tightly, so it is time-consuming and troublesome to bind, which requires the patient cooperation of the model. Xu's binding is that after the upper body and legs are bound, the wrist and ankle of the model are firmly tied together, and it is difficult to break free.

Therefore, the wrist and ankle are not strictly tied together in the actual binding, depending on the flexibility and muscle strength of the model. Just lift your knees and chest off the bed board. The posture of anti-tying makes the model completely lose the ability to resist and avoid chest training. The reverse binding puts a lot of pressure on the waist muscles and bones, so the general model can't be tied for a long time.

Reason:

Some people say that the tying person first makes five sets of ropes (flowers) and puts them on the neck and arms of the tied person respectively, and then tightens the rope to bind them; There is a saying that the bound person has five ropes (one in the throat and two in the left and right arms) from the front; It has also been pointed out that the so-called bound flowers mean that the binding rope behind it is in the shape of RMB.

The shape of the rope is divided into five rope ends, and the top two rope ends are tied around the shoulders, crossed to the chest or tied back along the armpit. The middle two rope ends are the upper arm of the binder, and the lower one is the wrist of the binder.
