Sports health care, also known as Chinese medicine fitness, refers to the use of traditional sports methods for exercise. Our ancestors have long recognized that the universe, especially human life activities, have the characteristics of sports, so they actively advocate sports health care. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, sports has been regarded as an important means of fitness and disease prevention. For example, "Zhuangzi Deliberately" said: "Breathe, get rid of the old and get new, and the bear is for its life. This guide, the person who raises the shape, is also the test of Peng Zushou. " It shows that quite a few people used guidance and other methods to exercise to keep fit. Lu Chunqiu clearly pointed out the significance of exercise for health preservation: "Running water does not rot, relatives do not bite, but move." So is Qi. If the shape does not move, the essence will not flow, and if the essence does not flow, the qi will be depressed. "Here, taking running water and pivot as examples, the benefits of exercise are illustrated, and the harm of inactivity is clearly pointed out from the relationship between shape and qi. Obviously, this shows a truth: moving is healthy, while not moving is weak. Huangdi Neijing also attaches great importance to exercise and health preservation, advocates "tireless physical exertion", opposes "sedentary" and "long lying", and emphasizes "harmony of skills and numbers", so-called "Shu Shu". According to Bing Wang's note, "Shu Shu is the road to health care", which generally refers to various health preservation methods, including various physical exercise methods. During the period of the Three Kingdoms after the Han Dynasty, the famous doctor Hua Tuo created the "Five Birds Play", imitating the movements of five animals, namely tiger, deer, bear, ape and bird, and doing gymnastics. His disciple, Upp, exercised every day according to the "Five Birds Play" and lived to be over 90 years old. His eyes and ears were smart and his teeth were intact. The appearance of "Five-Animal Play" has brought the Chinese medicine fitness to a brand-new stage, which has opened up a broad prospect for the emergence of other forms of sports health care in the future. In the Jin and Tang Dynasties, more and more health-preserving people advocated sports. The first rule of Feng Junda, a Taoist priest of Qingniu in Jin Zhanghua's Natural History, is that "there is always little physiological desire and no excess". In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Liang Tao Hongjing compiled "The Record of Raising Sex and Prolonging Life", saying: "People want to work less, but they are tired. When people have finished eating, they should hesitate and make progress. Therefore, running water does not rot, and the household axis is not delayed, so it is also because of its labor. "Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty, also attached great importance to exercise and health preservation. In Bao Mingsheng, he put forward that "all diseases can't be reached, and if people practice hard", and he himself insisted on walking, thinking that "it is better to measure the warmth and coldness of the four seasons and go out in three miles and two miles and three hundred steps". By the Song Dynasty, the research on sports health care methods had taken another step forward. For example, Pu Qian wrote "A Record of Health Preservation" and specially opened a course called "Limb Adjustment", which advocated the use of guided exercise. Leng Qian, a well-known health care scientist in Ming Dynasty, wrote "A Summary of Revision" and "Biography of Wang Cai", both of which advocated exercising with guidance. Tai Ji Chuan, which is very popular in China now, is said to be the thirty-two potential boxing classics summarized by Qi Jiguang in Ming Dynasty according to folk boxing methods. Cao Tingdong, a health care scientist in Qing Dynasty, created "three items of lying, sitting and doing" as a simple guiding method for the elderly to exercise. The above shows that the ancients attached great importance to sports health care, and "sports are not bad" is the traditional view of our Chinese nation in health care and fitness, which is completely consistent with the understanding of modern medicine. Modern medicine believes that "life lies in exercise". Exercise can improve the metabolism of the human body, make various organs full of vitality, delay the process of aging, and is especially beneficial to the cardiovascular system. French doctor Tissot once said: "Exercise can replace almost any medicine in terms of its function, but all the medicines in the world can't replace the function of exercise. "Although a little too much, but there is still some truth. The fact is that moderate exercise can make life and work full of youthful vitality and relaxed fun. It can help establish the law and order of life, improve the quality of sleep, ensure adequate rest and improve work efficiency; It can improve the adaptive and compensatory functions of the body and increase the resistance to diseases ... In short, exercise can improve people's health, prevent diseases and prolong life. Because of this, some people abroad say that "exercise is the source of health", which is the same as Yan Xizhai, an educator in the Qing Dynasty in China. The view of "one move is strong" is completely consistent.
