（通五經，增強抗病力）
這個運動方式的預備式是先將雙腳分開，腰骨挺直，扎起四平大馬，雙手十指伸直，掌心向地，掌背向上，雙掌放在馬步的中間空位上，離小腹約三寸，左掌中指對著右掌中指，然後，將右手掌提高超越額頭上約三寸，然後開始動作。
「一」，右掌用力打落馬步中間離小腹三寸的空間，即預備式時所放的位置，左掌同時提起高出額頭上三寸，「二」，左掌隨即打落，而右掌又同時提起高過額頭，「三」，右掌如第一式打下，左掌亦同時提高於額頭，左右手交替打下，共數「十」下。當掌打下時用力，同時馬步打一次坐低一些，使全身氣力增強。因為姿勢似打鼓，故名「扎馬打鼓」。（圖2為左手打下後提起右手隨即打下時情形。注意馬步已坐低。）
這是一項快節奏的運動，打時叫「一、二、三、四⋯⋯」，是六通拳的隨聲呼吸法，是以不能加入氣功。六通拳的隨聲呼吸是屬於自然呼吸法。六通拳始創人何琼師傅在教這一式前，先說這一運動有通五經內臟，抗癌作用。運動能夠抗癌，已被醫學界加以肯定，因為人體是有免疫力的，運動可增強體內的免疫力，使細胞對癌症產生免疫能力，這就是她所說有抗癌作用的理論根據。其他的運動都可使細胞加強抗癌的免疫能力，但有些運動過分劇烈，不適合老年人，而六通拳則老少咸宜。
Posture 9: Stand Firm and Play the Drum
The nineth posture of Luk Tung Kuen is known as “Stand Firm and Play the Drum”.
Starting position: Stand up right, feet apart at shoulder width. While keeping the upper body upright, slightly bend down two knees. Lift the arms upward until the hands are in front of the body at the level of the hips with the palms facing downward. The hands should be about 3 inches away from the abdomen. The middle finger of the right hand should point to the middle finger of the left hand. When ready, raise up the right arm until it is 3 inches higher than the forehead.
Movement 1: When count “one”, press down the right hand as one is playing the drum. Simultaneously, raise up the left arm 3 inches above the forehead. When count “two”, press down the left hand and raise up the right hand. Do this for ten times. When press down the hand, bend the knees lower than before and increase the effort. This posture looks like a person who is playing the drum. One point that worths remembering is that it is to use hands instead of fists.
This exercise is rather violent. When count “one”, “two”, “three”, “four”, remember to use natural method of respiration and avoid using the method of respiration as practised in Qigong.
According to the explanation of the founder of Luk Tung Kuen, Ha Kinh, this exercise is beneficial to the vital organs of the human body. A person is immune from cancer after a long time of practice. The field of medical science has already affirmed the theory that doing exercises can strengthen one’s resistance against cancer. It is because doing exercises can strengthen one’s immunity from disease. If one’s power of immunity has strengthened then one’s resistance against cancer can also be enlarged. Other exercises can also strengthen the immunity power of a person, yet other exercises are too strenuous and may not suitable for the elders. However, Luk Tung Kuen is suitable for the young and the elders.
