1, softness

Tai Ji Chuan is relaxed, soft, casual and natural.

Soft activities are conducive to body relaxation, natural breathing, suitable for people of different ages, sexes and constitutions to exercise, and sports accidents will not occur. Especially for people who are weak and suffer from chronic diseases, it is a better physical therapy method, so softness is the main feature of Tai Ji Chuan exercise.

Step 2 be slow

Tai Ji Chuan should be slow, not fast. It is one of the important characteristics of Tai Ji Chuan's movement to practice kung fu slowly. Slow is easy to master the essentials, and slow non-stop movements require a lot of exercise. A simplified Tai Ji Chuan or fitness routine can take 4-6 minutes, and Chen's old-fashioned 74-style Tai Ji Chuan can take 65,438+05-25 minutes. If you work hard, you can practice for more than half an hour.

3. Cyclic activities

Tai Ji Chuan's movements (upper limbs) are based on various arcs, so they are flexible, natural and smooth, and avoid going straight. The movement is round, not stagnant or stiff, and the waist should be the axis. Tai Ji Chuan's theory emphasizes the movement of the waist, which is called "waist-oriented". Therefore, circular motion is very important in Tai Ji Chuan motion.

4. Consistency

The whole set of Tai Ji Chuan movements, from the beginning to the end, are closely linked and consistent. No matter the actual changes of movements or the transition of postures, they all seem to be flowing and continuous, so as to receive good exercise effects.

Step 5 be complete

Tai Ji Chuan's movements require "immobility", the movements require consistency from top to bottom, and the inside (mind and breathing) is consistent with the outside (limbs and trunk), so every move should be complete, and it is more necessary to have the characteristics of wholeness from beginning to end.

The role of the Tai Ji Chuan movement:

1, Tai Ji Chuan can effectively improve the physical function of the elderly. Patients with breast cancer, heart failure, osteoarthritis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease can greatly improve their physical strength, balance and posture after practicing Tai Ji Chuan.

2. After practicing Tai Ji Chuan, my muscle strength is stronger and my quality of life is improved. For patients with bone and joint diseases, Tai Ji Chuan exercise can improve the physical pain and muscle stiffness caused by the disease and shorten the sitting time of patients.

3. In Tai Ji Chuan's exercise, the motor nerves are highly excited because the cranial nerves are concentrated in the action (consciousness guides the action), which overwhelms the nerve excitability of the disease. Over time, the excitability of the diseased nerves in the body is expelled and suppressed, so the range of activities of the disease is gradually reduced. In addition to physical activities, Tai Ji Chuan exercises the nervous system.

People's Network-practicing Tai Chi can strengthen the body, cure diseases and strengthen the body.
