The day before yesterday, an old leader came to visit at home. Speaking of fitness methods, he said that yoga is the best fitness method, ranking first among all fitness methods. He said that he had seen a yoga performance and his hamstring was pulled apart. We can't lift that leg so high in the future. I don't think his view is right. Ranked first in all fitness methods, yes. You can't practice until your hamstring is pulled open. This is not right. You can't say that you can't practice without stretching your muscles. On the contrary, I think middle-aged and elderly people are more suitable for practicing yoga, and it is more necessary to practice yoga. The reasons are as follows: 1. Because of the growth of age and long-term work, some parts of middle-aged and elderly people have become stiff or even deformed, losing their straightness and elasticity when they were young. Yoga is the best way to improve physical condition. By practicing step by step, the body will become softer and more elastic. Believe me or not, I am the best example. When I started practicing yoga at the age of 39, I never exercised because I worked at my desk for many years and my body flexibility was not good since I was a child. Legs as hard as a stick, fat face like a bucket, belly like watermelon skin, hunched back. My shoulders are up and down, and I can't even do the simplest movements. Now, people who know me are surprised by my change, but I haven't revealed the secret of my change! I feel that my practice is still shallow and I don't know enough about yoga. I don't want to mislead others. Therefore, old age and poor flexibility and rigidity are not obstacles to practicing yoga. On the contrary, it is more necessary to practice yoga to improve physical condition and increase health capital. I have lived for half my life, and I am tired of running around. Finally, my face turned yellow, my eyes turned yellow, wrinkles crawled on my face, my hair turned white, my blood pressure was high, my stomach became bigger and my body became heavier and heavier. Youth is passing, life seems to be passing, and our time is passing. Sigh that life is too short, and try every means to stop the passage of time. This is what I once lamented, but now yoga has given me a new life. Its breathing and meditation gave me real nutrients, and the posture method allowed me to soak in it and absorb it at will. What yoga made me realize completely changed me, kept my heart young forever, and taught me to enjoy life happily all the time. 3. Why are middle-aged and elderly people more suitable for practicing yoga? When I was young, I was often full of lofty sentiments, unable to sit still, short of money, housing and cars, and I had to be prepared for my own efforts. There are many ideas, and it's not time to decide. As for young people, they like to practice yoga because it can bring them a good figure and even make them have a moment of peace in their busy and impetuous life. The deeper things of yoga bring greater changes to our mind and body, which depends on our understanding. Middle-aged and elderly people often begin to reflect on life and re-recognize themselves. They have the knowledge and experience of life, and they will feel something when they practice yoga, so I think they are more suitable for practice.
