It is reported that at about 7 am on September 4, a group of citizens were exercising on the rails in Hequ Park near Zhengqi Street in Zhengzhou City. The crawling fitness method with both hands and feet attracted many people to watch. Ms. Zhang, an exerciser, said that crawling exercise has a feeling of returning to nature and can reduce the load on the body.

According to the report, experts in the industry said that crawling fitness actually has many origins. It originated from Hua Tuo's "Five Birds Play", and achieved the purpose of fitness by imitating the crawling movements of animals. Crawling can spread the whole body weight to the limbs, thus reducing the load on all parts of the body, especially the lumbar spine. It has a certain effect on the prevention and treatment of lumbar spondylosis, lumbar muscle strain and spinal diseases.

In addition, American scientists have found that walking on two legs consumes only a quarter of the energy of chimpanzees walking on all fours, and it also saves a lot of effort. Excessive or frequent upright exercise for a long time does great damage to vertebrae, and crawling fitness can improve the burden, activity and stretching of the spine to some extent.

Experts also said that patients with hypertension squat for a long time and suddenly stand up, which is prone to insufficient blood supply to the brain. Therefore, patients with hypertension should get up slowly after climbing if they want to exercise like this.
