Tai Ji Chuan's fitness value is various: physical, spiritual and artistic. Tai Ji Chuan exercises the joints and bones of the whole body outside, and exercises consciousness, spiritual temperament and nerve function inside. At first, I practiced movements, postures, bones and muscles, and later I practiced thoughts and internal qi activities, so I practiced from the outside to the inside and from the inside to the outside. This way is not a simple activity, but under the control of ideas, people's nervous system, motor function and respiratory system, circulatory system, digestive system and immune system have been comprehensively improved, and its fitness value is comprehensive, natural and scientific.
First, the intention to calm down and the combination of static and dynamic actions have a significant effect on improving the nervous system.
In today's society, the pace of life is tense and interpersonal relationships are complex. People are eager to return to nature, and hope to cultivate themselves and get peace. Taking part in sports is a good way to relax, but most sports are simple, superficial, short, flat, fast, noisy, not refined and without rich connotation. Tai Ji Chuan is an all-round sport that can truly achieve high-quality relaxation and cultivate sentiment. Tai Ji Chuan's mode of movement requires a close combination of thought, action and breathing. Under the control of consciousness, the heart does not move, the deformation is silent, the heart moves, the internal qi is guided to urge the limbs, and then the whole body moves section by section, and all parts of the body participate in the exercise, and it is achieved under very relaxed and light circumstances; Therefore, it is necessary to calm down, eliminate distractions, and pursue the emptiness of the concept of bones and joints; Therefore, the ability of nervous system to be controlled by self-concept is improved, and it can transmit and receive all kinds of information quickly and correctly; With the deepening of exercise, the improvement of proficiency and the enhancement of the stretching, contracting and transforming abilities of skeletal muscles, the balance, flexibility and speed of information transmission in the nervous system are also improved, and the accuracy is also improved, thus improving the function of the nervous system. During the exercise, part of the command system of the human brain gets excited and concentrated, while the part that usually works gets full rest, which breaks the pathology and focus of the disease, repairs and improves the function of the higher nerve center, and at the same time, the patients with internal organs are also repaired and improved, and some local symptoms will gradually be alleviated and disappeared.
People who often practice Tai Ji Chuan are full of blood, cheerful, quick-thinking, strong in immunity and seldom catch a cold.
Second, the whole exercise, continuous, promotes digestive function and substance metabolism in the body.
Tai Ji Chuan's movements are loose and slow. With the improvement of respiratory function and the adjustment process of nervous system to internal organs, the contraction and relaxation of diaphragm and abdominal muscles play a self-massage role on the liver and gastrointestinal tract, so that the intestine, stomach, liver and kidney can exercise properly, promote the blood circulation of internal organs, improve the tension, peristalsis, digestion and absorption ability of gastrointestinal tract, enhance the secretion function of adrenaline and improve physical fitness. Therefore, regular practice of Tai Ji Chuan can stimulate appetite, improve gastrointestinal function, reduce constipation, reduce cholesterol content in blood, and also play a role in preventing arteriosclerosis.
Third, qi stagnation and support from all sides can help to reduce the burden on the heart and promote the health of the blood circulation system.
Insist on practicing Tai Ji Chuan, not only exercise the muscles, bones and joints, but also relax the mind and limbs in an all-round way due to the action of ideas, so that the meridians are unobstructed, blood and blood flow around, capillaries are opened, and venous and lymphatic reflux is accelerated, thus reducing the burden on the heart. Abdominal breathing is formed by the practice of staying in the abdomen, sinking in the abdomen and rotating inside the abdomen. The formation of this breathing mode promotes blood circulation, strengthens the nutritional function of myocardium, improves the process of cardiac nutrition, and contributes to the health of heart, blood vessels and lymphatic system. At the same time, due to the reduction of the body's center of gravity during boxing practice, the blood circulation function of the legs is enhanced, and the burden on the heart is also reduced.
