Yijinjing fitness method first appeared in Yijinjing written by Tiantai Taoist Zi Ning in the fourth year of the Apocalypse (1624).
Basic contents and methods
Yijinjing includes two training methods, internal and external, each with 12 potential. The internal work of Yijinjing adopts standing posture, which is induced by certain posture and breathing, and gradually strengthens the functions of the meridians and viscera. Most of them are static. Breathe comfortably and naturally, and don't exhale. Yijinjing has 12 postures and practice methods, which have been handed down from generation to generation, namely, Wei Tuoxian pestle (there are three postures), star-picking and bucket-changing, three sets of landing, claw-flashing, back-pulling, nine ghosts drawing a sword, dragon claw-probing, crouching tiger pouncing, bow-beating and call it a day. The external work of Yijinjing emphasizes external work. "Yi Jin Jing External Skill Diagram" points out: "Anyone who practices external skills must stand in a quiet place facing the East and concentrate quietly. You don't have to connect the whole body with force, just let it run through your hands. If you push hard, you can't get your hands in. Type one word per line, say 49 words silently, and then type with the next one without interruption. Be the first, consciously understand the laws of the mind, and be the second. People who are half a month late and one month late are familiar with all kinds of things, and power can penetrate the top of their heads. This refining force refines the gas and runs the method of easy tendon and easy pulse. "

Self-service application
Yijinjing has a large amount of internal exercise and is difficult to move. Generally speaking, full-set exercise is only suitable for young people with good physical strength or patients with chronic diseases. Can significantly improve physical fitness, eliminate diseases and strengthen the body. The external exercises of Yijinjing are mainly to move fingers, palms and upper limbs, which are generally suitable for healthy people and patients with chronic diseases of all ages. By exercising upper limbs, people can feel lucky, promote blood circulation and relax muscles, affecting the whole body.
Matters needing attention
People with weak constitution should use internal strength with caution, especially "crouching tiger pouncing on food", which has a large amount of exercise and is difficult, and should not be used during heart disease and asthma attacks. When the above-mentioned patients use external exercises, they should also reduce the number of operations of each type, and do what they can, step by step.
This method pays attention to the combination of static and dynamic, on the one hand, it emphasizes the close combination of static and dynamic skills in the way of practice. On the other hand, it means to be "dynamic and quiet" when practicing, that is, to maintain a state of mental peace, concentrate and breathe naturally; When practicing static kung fu, we should "move in silence", that is, keep the harmony of breath movement in a quiet posture. Only the combination of motion and static, the coordination of heart, qi and body, can refine qi and generate spirit, nourish viscera and qi and blood internally and strengthen bones and muscles externally. Meditation can promote the tranquility and functional adjustment of the body.
The internal strength of Yijinjing is adapted according to the twelve potentials of Yijinjing. Because of its remarkable effect of strengthening the body, it is widely used as one of the basic training methods of modern massage doctors.
