Master Waysun Liao's Temple Style Tai Chi works on Golden Bell training. The explanation my teacher (master liao's student) gave me is this:

 

With Golden Bell, the Qi is focused to a point and in a martial arts application, the point of contact gets neutralized and reversed by developing the ability to focus the Qi down to that point.

I do a "bell" standing meditation from my system, yet I don't think it's golden :)

It creates a feeling of total aloofness, stillness and power.

I did a few months of Kaishan Golden Bell/Shield a few years ago. It was interesting, probably nothing to compare to movies :) . There was a short chi gung form and visualizations, rubbing the belly w/ an herbal elixir, then a long series of hitting the stomach area in a circular manner. You slowly graduated from an open hand to loose fist, to harder fist, wooden block etc.

 

I quit before the wooden block training started. It was nice, not done in a militant or masochistic way. The advanced students were taking very hard blows repeatedly in the stomach and other areas. It probably built up internal strength.

 

I learned a light tapping exercise from it that I still do, and they had excellent longevity guided meditation that is unique. Nice people, unique practice, but it was expensive, $100 a month and it only met once a month, (though it required daily practice) which was a turn off for me.
